I am close to murder for want of a memory foam mattress topper...any of you recall seeing one at Costco? I think I'd make the drive just for that!<br /><br />My husband Paul is heading to Guad. next month for 2 weeks of language school, I bet he heads over to see you guys and get some more ink. He has been itching to do his other leg, he is out of balance I guess!<br /><br />Take care, hope to meet you one day!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15016075941355264454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896456029589633600.post-21204526037677676132009-06-08T16:04:55.276-07:002009-06-08T16:04:55.276-07:00how crazy!!!

Amanda: seriously, I don...Nice to meet you Vadose!<br /><br />Amanda: seriously, I don't know how much the costco memberships here cost. I use my card from the states, where it was $45 bucks a year. WELL worth it. We were talking about just the paper towels, which are 240-ish for 12, which is 20 pesos a peice rather than the crappy ones in the stores for 25-35. Costco is on Vallarta, next to the Gallerias. I'll give you directions be4 you come.<br /><br />Rosas: Haha... you're right! I'm kinda hoping for another mexi-lottery next week, cuz we need dog food.Refried Dreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05387521513641562755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896456029589633600.post-3010562211120124572009-06-07T07:47:58.583-07:002009-06-07T07:47:58.583-07:00I know exactly what you mean.

Otherwise my husband complains that he cant smell his shirts. lol But we also found out that we have to water it down or it stains our cloths in the washer, oh well this makes it last longer and still smells great. Hey I just sent you an e-mail and speaking of Costco you think you can tell us how to get there when we come? And how much is the membership?bordersasidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14142674938117338592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896456029589633600.post-72738867294851202112009-06-06T21:15:13.775-07:002009-06-06T21:15:13.775-07:00Hey, I found your blog recently and have been enjo...Hey, I found your blog recently and have been enjoying it a lot - because I can really relate! I splurge on dish soap, body care products, and butter.<br /><br />I moved down here in September with my husband, into his fam's house, actually (!), down here on Lake Chapala. I thought I'd say hi, rather than remain an anonymous blog follower.<br /><br />Keep writing! Maybe it's silly, but I feel a lot less alone knowing I'm not the only one who loses it sometimes over the little things.Vadosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17453824971318511156noreply@blogger.com
