My mom's visit

Well my mom has come and is now headed back to Saint Jo, Texas. We had a great time seeing her. I am very lucky to still have both of my parents and they are still in good enough health to come see us. It is a long, multi step journey from Texas to Pamplona Spain. I am lucky and grateful that they are still willing and able to make the trip.

I am not sure who had more fun, Eliana Valentina or my mom. They both had a ball together. Luckily, my mom still has a lot of energy because my daughter will take it out of you! It was a pleasure getting to see them spend time together. They sure do love each other. Eliana loves all of her grandparents and her great grandmother.

We got to disconnect for a few days go camping (in a handicap accessable cabin) in Asturias, Spain. It was very nice and fun. We had a great time. It was much more enjoyable than our cruise. We had no bad luck or sickness.

We also got to go to the lake and puttered around Pamplona. We were busy nearly everyday. My mom will be returning here to visit us in Pamplona in January. Then, I will be going back with her to Texas for a visit. It will be good to see everyone back home. 

I am not 100% health wise. However, I am stable for now and doing much better than before. I still consider myself a lucky person and things could be much worse. I will continue looking for work, my daily exercise and speech therapy. I will continue teaching English online as well.

I may have limited mobility and speech issues but I still have a lot to live for. I am a lucky guy and I have an amazing family, in laws and friends. I couldn't ask for much more. 

Til next time, Tyler
