WeAreMovingToArizona

Our closing date is December 9th 2009

2009-12-03T13:02:00.000-08:00

So we will make the big move the weekend of December 12-13 2009.

Honey, what are we eating tonight?

2009-12-02T04:26:00.000-08:00

Genetically manipulated food, dear.

Disgusting

The president that promised peace is now sending MORE troups! People voted for him because they wanted these useless wars to END. With a skyrocketing unemployment, one would have thought that the US could use its limited resources at home...

We have started to pack

2009-11-30T04:52:00.001-08:00

and will probably get the keys to our new home by the end of the week!

Epic Movie

2009-11-30T04:50:00.000-08:00

We saw this amazing movie over the weekend: Australia

Dubai Defaults on its debt

2009-11-28T17:16:00.000-08:00

I almost read that the US defaulted on their debt, luckily it was only one of the "richest' countries in the world: Dubai. But the US default is not for now yet...

And who lend their money to Dubai.. the usual suspects: ING, Barclays, ...

The Electric cars are coming

No flu shot for us

2009-11-07T07:28:00.000-08:00

This is an extremely sad story.

At WALMART you can buy EVERYTHING

House

2009-10-19T18:09:00.000-07:00

We bought this French looking villa. If everything goes well with the bank (regarding the mortgage), we will move at the end of November.

Amazing music

Amazing movie: Changeling

The police is your best friend...

Air conditioning

2009-10-12T11:59:00.000-07:00

The temperature in Arizona has come down quite a bit. And ... that is a good thing because our electricity bill was $490 in July and $425 in August ... We don't have to turn on the A/C units anymore so that saves a lot of energy (and $$$).

Good times are here.

Homebuying

2009-10-12T08:59:00.000-07:00

Because we don't have anything better to do, we made another offer on a house lol.

All that glitters is GOLD

2009-10-12T08:33:00.000-07:00

Looks like we are all going to be poor billionaires soon...

Endoscopy

2009-10-12T08:29:00.000-07:00

Lisa had a lot of problems with her stomach and the doctors performed an endoscopy last week. Everything went well and we will get the results of the biopsy within the next few weeks.

Weather

2009-09-30T05:50:00.000-07:00

The maximum temperature during the day is about 105-110 F.(+/- 45C) Next week the temperature is going to come down to more reasonable levels +/-93 F (33C). That's when good times are here. We love to ride our bikes when the temperature reaches sub 100 levels. The morning walk to get the mail also becomes a very nice moment of relaxation. (mailboxes are not located at your house)

I feel sorry for the kids that have football practice at our school from 3-6pm.

School

2009-09-29T14:23:00.001-07:00

This our third year at Maricopa's High School.
Our classes start at 7:12 and finish at 2:07. We teach five 54 minute classes and we have a 30 minute lunch.

Every school year we have 11 days that we can take off. We both took 1 day off so we still have 10 left (+ the ones from the previous years). This is the last week of school before students (and teachers) have fall break (Oct 5 - Oct 9). We will be going to Tucson and we'll be staying at this hotel.

Naomi changed schools and this is a link to Naomi's school: Pathway Prep she is doing very well, she had A's and B's on her progress report card.

It's been a while but we are still alive

2009-09-28T13:08:00.000-07:00

We are still alive and kicking.

I will add some new posts over the next few days.

As always, we watched a lot of movies and we saw these 2 amazing ones:
Flyboys

Knowing

From this movie, one of the best scenes I have ever seen:(blu ray and 50 inch Panasonic helps)

First week of school

2009-08-14T05:00:00.000-07:00

Today is the end of the first week of school. It was a tough week and waking up early has taken a toll. School starts from 7:12 to 2:07 so we have to wake up at around 6 am. When we get home we usually take a 2 hour nap.

Naomi is going to this daycare. It's much more expensive than a regular daycare lady but the services they offer are just amazing.

School

2009-08-07T06:08:00.000-07:00

We started school August 1st (meetings) but the kids will show up this Monday ( August 10th).

Hip hip hooray, our school year has begun.
