Down on our luck

Things have been pretty bad lately, folks. We have definitely been down on our luck. Thus, my long absence and no post......

Two crappy things have happened lately:

1. Javi and I BOTH (somehow) got dengue fever at the same time. One person sick on dengue is a mess, but the both of us.....feverish, headaches, eye aches, back aches, sweating, nausea......and all for 5 days was a lot to handle. And one couldn't help the other.

2. Our house was robbed while we were gone (see below) and just about EVERYTHING of value was stolen from us. That includes our computer, iPod, backpacks, memory sticks (with everything from work on it), etc. They even stole things like cords that connect camaras with the computer.

What a mess....

On top of it, we traveled to the United States, sick with dengue, to spend a few days with Javi's family for a family reunion. Needless to say, the trip was hellish, and we were sick for a major portion of the reunion. (Fun to see the fam though!) Our trip was quick, and when we returned home, we were greeted with a kicked in door and all our electronics taken from our house. Makes you glad that you came back here for that.

Looking on the bright side, we are back to good health and we have "stuff" insurance, so our computer and mp3 player will be replaced.

I'll put up something later....just wanted to leave a little word on what was happening.
