Wow.....I keep saying time flies and gets faster every year I am alive. It feels like it is on permanent fast forward now that I am in Nicaragua. And the funniest part of the whole thing is that nothing moves with any kind of speed compared to the hectic pace in Canada. Everything has been new, different and so incredibly busy. My life has changed in an infinite number of ways and directions. I have a new boyfriend who I live with here in Las Penitas. We have known each other for many years and he is the sweetest, kindest man a girl could ask for. I am very lucky to have reconnected with him. He owns Dulce Mareas which is a pizza restaurant here in town. Last November he began a building project in the backyard consisting of 4 rooms and a suite. It is just 2 weeks ago that it was completed and the first guests arrived. When they say everything happens for a reason and every lesson builds character to strengthen you in the future ...
