I could not find my blog. I searched and searched. I finally saw the link for lost blogs. A tada!! I saw the eliminated blogs. How my blog got eliminated, who knows, but it is up and running again!!
I have not written in here in a very long time. Hence why I didn't even realize my blog was missing. A lot has happened in my life in the past few months.
Miguel got this stupid idea that he was going to the US with or without a visa. So, he was stuck on using a coyote. It took me 2 months and enlisting the help of his parents and sisters to talk him out of it. he was even talking to the coyote and had set a date to leave and all. I told him that I would not even put up with it. that would mean 2 years in Mexico for nothing!! He told me that I could go with him to the States or stay here in Mexico, it was up to me, but he was gone. he had had it with Mexico.
Well, we are now back in Monterrey, but in our own house. We sold our TV, old computers, and video games. The kids pitched a fit about the video games, but I told them that they haven't played them in over 7 months so why keep them. I did promise to buy my son the PS Vita for Christmas. He is getting a laptop for his birthday in July. My daughter already has her laptop. This is the reason the video games have not been touched. Anyway, we sold all of that and with the money bought new furniture!! Yayy!!!
I am still homeschooling. This is getting more difficult. My son who is 9 is going through the "school sucks" stage. My daughter on the other hand is doing awesome in school!! She is in 5th grade and learning Algebra. She loves it and catches on so quick. I usually only explain the process once and she gets it. My son is really good at school and learns things quickly, but his problem is he wants to rush through everything and does not read directions. So, he usually has to redo his worksheets and he hates it. I have told him and told him to read directions.
I am still working with Open English and loving it!! I will be working with them for a year in 3 weeks.
I am now in college. I am studying online to get my paralegal degree. I have been studying since September. At first it was horribly hard, but I think I have re-learnt how to learn.
We are still TTC. I have had 2 chemical pregnancies, one in September and one in December. I had an HSG done a couple of weeks ago. I have one blocked tube and one good tube. My reproductive endocrinologist is going to start more aggressive meds this cycle. I had a psychic reading and she said that she did not see anymore children in my future. I am bound and determined to prove her wrong!!
We are finally going to apply for Miguel's visa. His little stunt made me think that I better hurry up and get him that. He is getting tired of being here. I think it is finally getting to him that I make more than 3 times what he makes. I am praying that the Reform happens and the 9B and 9C bans are removed or atleast made easier to get waived without having to wait the 10 years.
I am going to take pics of our new house as soon as the cabinets are installed. I am loving my cute little house!! That is the first time I have actually said that since being in Mexico.
This is the story of an a family trying to live in separate countries while waiting on USCIS to make up their mind as to whether or not they can live together in the same country again.

I've Had it With Mexico and Certain People
Don't get me wrong, I love the country. It is just the people that surround me. I thought by moving to the rancho with Miguel's grandmother things would be different. yes, they are, but Miguel is out of town working so I am here alone with the kids and her. She flipped changed her face so quick! Talk about Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde!
She went form being all nice to us to complaining and insulting my kids and me and telling everybody lies about us. She went as far as to tell everybody that I refuse to prepare her food and she has had to eat raw food because she can't see to fix it! I cook for ALL of us!! HAlf the time she doesn't want to eat and says that she will eat later. I tell her to tell me and I will heat it up. I work full time and study full time so I can't be right there all the time. Later on, I will ask her if she is ready to eat and she willt ell me that she already ate and ate the food cold because she can't see to use the stove. I tell her that she has no reason to eat cold food, all she has to do is tell me. She just laughs it off, but then she exaggerates it and tells all kinds of lies to people.
I decorated for Christmas the other day. I kept asking her how she would like the decorations and she said that anyway I wanted. Well, yesterday her granddaughter came and said she didn't like it. That things should be changed. So, guess what happened. I came home to find all of my decorations moved, half of them broken or bent. I asked her why she did it, she said that her granddaughter said it didn't look good. I told her that I had asked her beforehand and even afterwards and she liked it. I also reminded her that her granddaughter can decorate her house and not here because she does not live here. She told me, to put it back the way I had it then. I told her, no! I worked all day on that for her and her granddaughter to move then I wasn't going to change it. I asked her who was going to pay me for my broken decorations too. It wasn't like she only broke a couple or they were dollar store things.She broke about 8 things and they were the most expensive things!!
We don't have running water in the rancho, but the water comes in every week or so. We have tanks on top of the house we keep full for "running" water. The water came today and I told her we need to fill up the large tank because it is almost empty and that is what is used to wash dishes, bathe, and do laundry with. She refused because it is for rain water only. I told it is not going to rain anytime soon or atleast not enough to fill that up. She said her sons would not agree on it, but they don't live here. I refuse to use water form the other tanks in the kitchen or for showers. This tank is connected to the kitchen and shower. I told that if we use the tank that is for the toilet to do dishes and bathe with, we would get sick. that tank is not sanitary, but she said oh well, we won't bathe or have clean dishes! I could not believe her! If it comes to not having water, I will rent a house and move. It makes me so mad because we built the tanks on the house and added the plumbing here. We have done so much in this house to make it livable and she acts like this?!! When we first moved here, the roof poured water in too many spots to count. The walls were falling apart from water damage, the doors would not close and had huge gaps between them and the outside. Animals and pests could get in and got in. we ave fixed all this and more. It looks almost like a home now.
I guess she thinks that I won't tell Miguel or he will not believe it, but she has another thing coming!! I refuse to let another of his family members to treat us bad! I will leave!!
I can't wait to get Miguel's visa and get the hell out of Mexico and far far from his entire family. They are all hypocrites!! I have already called him and he said he is going to talk to her later. honestly, all that is going to do is make her mad and make my life even harder. if she keeps on, I don't care if she can't see or that her sons don't take care of her even though they live one block away, I will move and it won't be close, there are no houses for rent in the rancho.
I had another good post planned, but she changed that. I will write what I had planned at a later date1 Vent over. See you soon!
