Hello to all!

Love to all, Patricia

    • Thank you for asking about my friend, Patricia. No, she hasn’t called but I was just about to send her an e-card just for the heck of it. One that just says hello. We actually do that frequently so it won’t look out of the ordinary. We send the Jacquie Lawson cards to one another. The cards are beautiful and they use really pretty music.

      Thank you again for asking!
      Hugs
      Cynthia

    • I will be your friend.  I am from MS, USA.  I want to lose 25 and I am having the hardest time.  I love to cook and it’s hard not to eat.  I am going on vacation next week, and I can’t get in any of my clothes but I want to lose for me and keep the weigh off.

    • Ginger, about living in Brazil. I was born in Rio in 1962. Rio was a culturally thriving city,even glamorous, with all the bossa nova wave. But my grandpa always used to say that wealth cannot live next door to so much poverty on the slums set on the hills that surround Rio de Janeiro. There you are, there came dictartorship cutting us from the outer world, sending brains out to exile in France, UK and Cuba.
      Since 1984 we´ve been a democracy again, of course with a corrupted system that we are trying to fight. As there are many Brazils: North is the Amazon, Northeast still controlled by old colonels, center thriving on soya exports, southeast the wealthiest region where I live and the south, region with the best education in the country due to german, italian immigtration.
      Sao Paulo is a bit like we used to see Detroit in films back in the 70´s. It´s not safe to go for a walk/ride at night. having said that, we have wonderful restaurants and a pretty agitated nightlife. We also have impossible traffic jams. It takes me 1h30 mins to cover the 14 kilometers to work everyday. We still lack qualified labour and there is much infrastructure to be established. Yet , I think many foreigners will be coming here for the next decade, I have been noticing qualifies people are moving here from everywhere. My brother in law being one of them, coming from the UK to live here.
