Life's Rough On Vacation

Hola, I'm writing to you from my laptop on a beach on the west coast of Mexico. I thought I'd send you some warm tidings.

The days are busy, but a fun busy.

We have TOUGH decisions daily like... Are we going to walk to the beach first and play in the ocean? Shall we build sandcastles? Should we swim in the big people pool or the kids' pool? If it's the kids' pool, which slide are Ella and Alek going to go down. Then we have to decide which of the five restaurants we're going to eat at.

Life's rough on vacation.

Some people worry about the food/water in Mexico. We don't. Probiotics three times daily, and forget about it. I was responsible for packing all the natural medicines for the trip -- the "just in case remedies." Filled up one-fourth of a suitcase! Better to be safe than sorry.

Oh yeah, Natalia did something amusing (from my perspective at least)...

She's very meticulous when it comes to packing, etc. She started a couple of weeks ahead of time buying summer clothes for the kids. I didn't do much, to be quite honest. Packed the night before. That drives Natalia nuts.

Anyways, we arrived Saturday night. Upon waking up Sunday morning Natalia realizes she didn't pack Alek's underwear. I couldn't help but laugh, but she was so angry at herself. The instant I said, "How could you forg-" she struck back with her famous line: "I can't think of everything!"

I made sure the February newsletter was done and ready to mail before I left. You should have already received it in your mailbox (if you're an active patient). You can even drop by the clinic today until 5pm. Suzanne can take your order.

B vitamins help relax the nerves. Not quite like a one-week vacation... but maybe the next best thing?

I'll be back to windy, snowy Tecumseh this weekend. Please book ahead if you have any health issues I can assist with -- as I already have a fair-sized waiting list upon my return.

El tuyo en salud,
(Yours in health,)

P.S. Alek says he wants to live in Mexico and that we should move here. He wants to go to school on the beach and learn how to build sand castles. Sounds good to me.

P.P.S. Make sure to check out the insert in the February newsletter, regarding my new booklet to help anybody dealing with digestive troubles. If you'd like a copy, just call Suzanne at (519) 739-2402 and she'll post you one for free.
