Hi everyone! I know I've been absent for a while. Many things have happened. You can read all about it on my new blog. See you there. Veronica

I am sooo excited! Tomorrow, finally, I will be realizing one of my life dreams. Maybe to some of you it doesn't sound like much, but to me, it is. I am traveling to New York City, and I won't believe that it is actually happening until I see something that screams out NEW YORK! so loud that I will have to cover my eyes and ears at the same time, don't know how I'll do it, but I'll manage somehow

I have been dreading to write this post, just because it would make what I am going through, just that more real, but here it goes. I am back in Miami, for good. I came back a month and a half ago. I got tired of all the drama I had been going through, and I thought that my kids didn't need to suffer any more dreadful moments. I just packed my bags and decided to come home with them. As you

For the past two weeks I've been very busy because my sister-in-law, my nieces, and the baby arrived to Santa Cruz, so we have been spending most of our time with them. They were staying with us in our tiny apartment for a few days, and you can't imagine how crazy it was. Let me paint you a picture of the craziness that it was. I live in a three bedroom apartment, the rooms are not tiny, but they

Graduation day finally arrived on friday. It is the proudest I have ever felt in my entire life. We spent the whole afternoon at the salon getting our hair and nails done for that night. I knew that I would get a little emotional, because she's my first born, and I never had a graduation, but I never imagined the water works that came right after she stepped down from the stage. As soon as hugged

Rebecca's graduation ceremony is today. My parents are getting here any minute and my sister in law is arriving tonight from Miami with my two nieces and the baby. The day has arrived when I can say I have a daughter who has graduated high school, and I feel DAMN PROUD. All the hard work has paid off, and there is more to come when she goes to college. I have to run now to the salon to do my hair

I had a little extra time in my hands today so I decided to try and learn how to use Adobe Illustrator. This is my first work of art, if you can call it that. It isn't that easy, but I think I would like to take some classes to learn how to master this program, you can really do amazing stuff with it.

Today is Mother's Day in Bolivia, and Camila's school had a show for all the moms. They were the last ones to do their routine, because they are the oldest ones in that school. She was wearing a shirt she painted, it said I love my mom in spanish. They danced to some ABBA songs, which I love, and they started with Mamma Mia. She had promised me that she was gonna dance this time, because every

Mother's day is around the corner, and I mean mother's day in Bolivia, which is on May 27, and the kids are having activities in school that have to do with such occasion. Leo had a show in school on friday, which I don't have pictures of because I lent my camera to my husband and he forgot to give it back to me, he acted on a comedy sketch about a day in a mother's life, it was very funny.

A couple of weeks ago, my parents came by for a visit and since they had not seen my brother's baby since January, they told my sister in law if she would bring the baby to Santa Cruz, because they were not going to Cochabamba this time, so she agreed and they arrived the next day. I was so happy to see my nephew Santiago, and my sister in law. I love babies, and this one is just driving me crazy

I am thinking of making some life changing decisions, but I can't tell anyone right now, because if something happens that changes my mind I don't want to look like a weak person for not doing it. I will have to leave you hanging with this quote for about a month. In a month my life could change drastically, and I promise you Internet, you will be the first to know.

I took this picture last year when we had just gotten here to Bolivia. I had seen a hummingbird once before, when I was a kid, but I had never gotten so close as I did this time. I had to take a few pictures of it because it moves so fast, that sometimes I didn't know where it went , or I had to look really hard because it got camouflaged by the leaves in the plant. It isn't such a clear picture

Thanks to May and Allie for your concerns. My son is fine now and we are about to go home from the hospital, I hope. I wish no one has to go through something so scary as your child loosing their memory, even if it's for a second, although there are a few things I wish I could forget.

I'm posting from a hospital room in Santa Cruz, because my son Leo fell and hit his head in school, and kinda lost his memory. They took a tomography of his head, and everything looks fine, it just shows that his brain shook when he fell. The doctor advised us that Leo should stay in the hospital, just to be under the watchful eye of doctors, and I think it's the best thing to do, because he was

Mascara is, I think, the most important make-up tool I use every day. I have tried many brands, but most of them make my eyes itch, or they just don't work as well as I wanted them to, but this one does work. It doesn't clump, it doesn't make my eyes itch, and what's better, it is so affordable that you can buy every color that they have, just don't wear them all at once, nobody wants to see you

I have recently changed my blog's header. In the past months I have been teaching myself how to use Photoshop, and I love to design headers. I have a link underneath my header that takes you to see most of the ones I have designed. I hope you check them out and tell me what you think.

I don't know if I have been living under a rock or something hit my head and I lost my memory, but I don't remember listening to this girl Meiko, I think I would remember it. I think her voice is just hipnotizingly beautiful. My daughter downloaded her songs. I was listening to Maroon 5, when suddenly this amazing harmony started playing, and sure enough I was hooked.

Today is my baby's birthday. She turns 17. I know, she's not a baby any more, but to me she will always be my baby, no matter how corny that sounds.I can't believe how fast time passes. I remember when I learned that I was pregnant, and even though I was 17... yup, her age now... I always had dreams of how she would look like when she finally came out of me, and then when she was born, I wondered

Easter Sunday was kind of a calm event. My family and I met up with my cousin at an Argentinian restaurant. We ate lunch and then we decided to go to my cousin's house to do the whole egg hunt deal. The kids where really excited because it's their first chance in the year to really pig out eating chocolate (their second chance is, of course, Halloween). Here are a few pictures of the event.Leo is

Ever since june of last year, I have been traveling from the States to Santa Cruz, and in Santa Cruz we have been staying in a small apartment that we bought more than three years ago. When we bought the apartment, we never thought we were going to stay more than a month in it, we didn't buy anything bigger because we thought, why would we need a bigger place, it's just for vacations, but now we

I received the greatest news yesterday, our application for the tax exempt from the government, for our foundation, was finally accepted, after two and a half years. The form is called 501(c)(3), and this means that we can finally accept donations. I will tell you everything about the foundation once our website is all in order, but it is mainly to help poor Bolivian people with education, and to

A couple of days ago my family had a really big scare. My cousin Silvestre went missing. He had gone out at 8 in the afternoon to pick up his son from his ex-wife's house, but he never came back, and he never got to pick up his son. In many cases you would think that he met some friends and went out until the next day, but he's the kind of guy who doesn't drink and he would never say he's going

Last night I woke up at 4 in the morning and, as always, I had left the TV on. I didn't want to completely wake up, so I decided to not move and find the control, to turn the TV off, since doing so would actually wake me up. I tried to continue sleeping, but somehow I was listening to what was on TV. I could hear that a movie was playing, and the plot of the movie was of a psychologist listening

I came back from Cochabamba three days ago, but I couldn't upload any pictures because the internet was too slow, so finally I have some pictures to show you.Like I said on my last post, I had to travel to Cochabamba, because my husband has a dealership over there in association with my cousin, and he had to go and see a few things with him.

I just got this body mist a week ago, and ever since I've been using it my skin feels silky and smells great. So I really recommend to go to Victoria's Secret to get it. Believe me you won't regret it, and your body will thank you, not to mention your special someone.

Leo and Camila fight all day long, and sometimes I can't hear my own thoughts through the screaming and crying. It's not even a normal cry, it's AAAAAAAAHHHH, HMMMMMMMM, EEEEEEEHH, AND IIIIIIIIHH, and the amazing thing about it is that she can do all that without shedding a single tear. It goes from excruciatingly loud, to a low hum, and then back to a loud screech. The funny thing is that even

This past weekend, we celebrated Carnival, and since the week before, we had parties every day. The first party we had, was a costume party, and our group of friends decided we were all going to go dressed up as dead people. The idea came from the recent voting to change the constitution, and since we found out that there had been fraud with the votes, because there were people voting with the

I got married when I was 17 and pregnant, and my life changed forever. My daughter Rebecca was born before I turned 18, so you can say that responsibility fell on my lap at a very young age, but I made it through, and although I regret not having a normal life like the rest of my friends, who were going to parties, and having fun, while I was home taking care of my baby, I don't regret growing up

I just received the latest pictures of my nephew Santiago, and I think that he's the cutest baby ever. The person in the picture that's bathing him, is my brother, and I can't believe what a good dad he's turned out to be. My husband never bathed or changed any of my kids, so I have to be very proud of my brother right now.

I haven't had time lately to post the pictures from the party, because my friend's dad died two days ago from a heart attack, so I have been with her since her dad entered the hospital. I really didn't have the will to write about a party, because I was feeling really sad. She's a good friend of mine, and her dad was a very nice person, but life continues, so here are the pictures:This is a

I'm going to a huge party tonight, which involves all the best Comparsas of Santa Cruz, which are groups, or fraternities, that get together during carnival time, and on carnival day to party and dance in the streets.  For you to have an idea of what carnival is like here in Santa Cruz, you have to have seen something of the brazilian carnival. In Brazil they have samba schools, here we have

Rebecca has been a little depressed lately because a couple months ago, she found out that her best friend, Lesly from Miami, had a tumor next to her heart, and later on we found out that it was cancerous. Lesly started chemo right after finding out. We have been very worried for her, because the side effects are so bad, but two nights ago Rebecca was chatting with her online and they decided to

I wanted to post this picture of a Piyo or Ñandú, which is the Bolivian ostrich, because I think it is such an awesome bird. They are also found in parts of Argentina and Uruguay. The look he has, is saying, woman, if you get any closer to me I will charge, and you will pee your pants. That's exactly what happened two-seconds after I took the picture. I wanted to post it as large as I could, so

Camila, who's five, is in a stage where she can talk and talk, and never gets tired of talking. Sometimes she talks so much that I can hear her, but I am not listening, because I have blocked her out. I do that only because I am trying to hear what I am thinking, and I can not hear my own thoughts if I don't block her from time to time. So to make sure that I will be listening, she asks me to

Campaigning just ended to change the Bolivian Constitution, and here in Santa Cruz, like I said in my last post, people are against the new constitution, so there was a big party celebrating the end of the campaign. There was a big concentration of people at the "Christ" monument, which is a very important place here, where the governors of the four departments who are against the constitution

I've been running around trying to get Leo in school. School starts next month, and there is paperwork that has to be checked by the department of education, so until they check it I can't sign him into any schools. One of the things that people notice when they come to Bolivia is that life goes by very slowly over here. Everything is slower. When you need paperwork done, you have to go to a few

Rebecca got back from Cancun last night, and my life is full again. She went there on her prom trip with all her classmates. All my motherly worries were erased the second I saw her arriving safe and sound.  When she got out of immigration, I was waiting at the door and Herland was waiting for us at the entrance to the airport. The first thing I noticed when I saw her was that she had gained a

Yesterday was my husband's birthday. We rented a restaurant and partied till it was morning. I am a little hungover right now, so I can't really function right now. I will post some pictures when I get them from the photographer. I forgot my camera so I don't have any at this moment. If someone has a good remedy for hangover, please let me know.

I HAVE A LEAK! I live in a 7 story building, and my apartment is on the seventh floor. The building is almost four years old, so there shouldn't be any really bad problems, but there is. A few days ago I noticed a faint stain on the ceiling inside the maids room, so I called the building manager to show him the spot. He said he would have people come and check the roof. The next day, as he said,

I miss my kids so much! Camila and Leo are with my parents in Cochabamba, and Rebecca left to Cancun on Thursday. It is the first time that all three of my kids are away from home, and suddenly I realize that it will probably feel like this when all of them leave the house forever. I think about it, and it makes me want to have more baby's, so that when one is about to leave the house, there is

I just got back from a short trip I made to Cochabamba. My parents, who had just gotten here to visit, got a call five days ago that my brother George's wife was having their baby. I told my husband that I wanted to go too, and Camila and Leo wanted to go with us, so we ran to the airport to catch a flight to Cochabamba, but when we got to there, they told us that the flight was full. My dad made

I hope you had a great New Years celebration, and I wish all the best for this new year. I had a really great time. We went to a friend's house to have dinner, and there we waited for midnight. The food that they served at dinner was really one of the best I have eaten here. They had many trays with different cheeses, they also had many kinds of hors d'oeuvres, and for dinner we had the best

New Year's Day is almost here, and as always we have too many invites. Every year we usually go to two or three parties because we are such pushovers that we can't say no, but this year we have only said yes to one, and maybe to three others. This year is the first time Rebecca will go out to a New Years party, and she's really excited about it. Her prom trip is also around the corner. She's

Sweat, sweat, sweat, and more sweat. I know that most of the northern hemisphere is freezing their pants off, but here in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, we're sweating like pigs. Thank God my dear husband decided to put air conditioning in every room of our apartment, or we would have been suffocating with the vapor and heat from outside. We have been invited to a wedding tonight, and I am actually

I can't believe Christmas is almost here. I've been running around all day getting my last presents. As always I forgot some gifts, and I went out today in the crazy holiday traffic to look for things that are nice to give, and that aren't that expensive, as if there was such a thing here in Bolivia. The things that are pretty are usually imported from the states, so that means that it costs

I have been having mixed feelings about something that is as common as getting dressed every morning. Here comes the explanation. My 16 year old daughter is going to be graduating in six months, which by that time she's going to be 17, and I have been really feeling like I'm losing a limb if she leaves home to study somewhere else. I know it's the cycle of life, but I can't help but feel like,

Hi Internet! I know I've been away for a long time, but my life has been crazy. Like I mentioned in my last post, my husband and I decided that at least for a year we would like our kids to stay in school in Bolivia, so these past few months have been very hectic, with getting the kids in school and me coming and going from Miami to Bolivia. I really had no time or the patience to write anything.

I've had a very busy two weeks. Two weeks ago I had to travel to Cochabamba because my brother Jorge got married. I will post those pictures in my next post. This week I have been signing up my kids for school over here, in Bolivia, so I will be coming and going to Miami. We decide we wanted them to go to school here in Santa Cruz, because very soon Rebecca will be graduating and going off to the

My trip to Santa Ana del Yacuma was filled with memories of when I was a little kid. I was born in Santa Ana, but I never actually lived there. I lived in Cochabamba until I was 15, but every year my dad, who was a pilot, took my siblings and I to Santa Ana for the Fiesta. You can read here, what happened on our first day of being in Santa Ana. On our second day, we woke up early in the morning,

Hi Internet! I just came back from my trip to Santa Ana del Yacuma, and let me tell you, I had the best time of my life. Santa Ana is a very little town, where I was born. I had not been there in 9 years. We had planned to go there this time because it was the town's fiesta. The fiesta is celebrated in honor to the town's church virgin, which the town was named after. The town was celebrating

A couple of weeks after we got to Santa Cruz, we went out looking for a place where we could have lunch, and we stumbled upon this beautiful restaurant called La Bella Napoli. It used to be an old house that they remodeled and turned it into a restaurant. When we parked we were shaded by a huge canopy of grape vines.When we went inside, it was even more beautiful. Many things caught my eye,

My birthday was on Monday, and I had one of the best birthdays ever. Although it didn't start like that, because I had a little fight with my husband, he redeemed himself later on that day. I had a bunch of people call me all day, asking me if I was going to do anything, and I told everyone that I was gonna call them if I decided to do anything.

A week after I arrived in Bolivia we went to a little town named Cotoca, It's half an hour away from Santa Cruz. This town is very famous over here because of the Virgin that they have inside the church. People all over Bolivia have very deep beliefs in the Virgin. They believe that she makes miracles, and people are to devout to her that they walk all the way from Santa Cruz to Cotoca as proof

I am hardly ever home, so I have hardly ever time to post, but  I really want to show you guys some pictures of my trip to Cochabamba, Bolivia.

I couldn't post all weekend, because I traveled to Cochabamba, I was very busy and didn't have internet connection in the apartment. I still have a couple pictures from my trip to Guarayos before I post anything from my weekend in Cochabamba.On our last day in Guarayos we went fishing again and at first nobody thought we would catch anything, but the river proved us wrong.

In my last post I wrote a little about my trip to Guarayos, in Bolivia. After we left my friends farm, a couple hours before Guarayos, we saw the most beautiful scenery. This picture is of a little hut we encountered on the way there.Then we stopped at another little town called San Ramon and there were a whole bunch of little stores where they sold stuff like soda, water, cigarettes and yes, of

Other than the stomach virus I just got, I'm having the best time of my life. I didn't post on the weekend because we got invited to go to this little town called Guarayos, which is like 4 hours from Santa Cruz. We almost didn't go because one of the bridges got blocked, but then our friends told us that there was another way to get there. It was going to be a little longer. A little longer

Oh my God! I want a piggy. Yes, you heard me Internet, I said a piggy. This video totally made me reconsider why I've been wanting a dog, when all this time I could have been wanting a piggy. It really doesn't make a difference what I want, because as it seems, I'm not getting either one, so hey, I can wish for a piggy and get the same outcome. Just watch the video and you'll understand me, and

Very hectic days are upon me. We are leaving to Bolivia next week, and let me tell you, traveling with four kids is no picnic, (Haha, I just counted my husband as a kid. My mind is trying to tell me something) and what makes it harder is that in South America it's winter, and we have no winter clothes. I live in Florida people! Over here winter is never as cold as it gets over there. When it gets

I just heard the most exciting news. My brother George is going to be a dad! That means that by 2009 I will have two nieces or nephews. No, he's not having twins, it's just that my other brother Alvaro is also going to be a dad. Three months ago I found out that Alvaro's wife is pregnant. He got married last year in December and I think that the baby is going to be born around September this year

I had an awesome weekend. On Saturday, my family and I went to have dinner at Tony Roma's restaurant, and after that my kids wanted to go to the movies,so they did and I came home to get ready to go out at night. A couple who are friends of ours, called us and asked if we wanted to go to the Hard Rock Hotel, which is one of the coolest places to go, because they have, apart from the hotel and

It's funny how some things, that for the normal human being, are not funny, or may be something that you don't want to do in public, for kids can be the funniest thing in the world, and they want to do it every day and all day long. It doesn't matter to them if there are people watching them or listening to them. Here comes my point. The other day someone said something funny, I don't remember

Lately I found my picture CD'S from when Camila was smaller, and I've been busy uploading as many of the pictures as I can to my Flickr account. It's so funny to see how kids change so much in so little time. Here are a few of the pictures that I found:  Camila when she was two years old.Here she was 1 1/2. She had just eaten a whole bar of chocolate and was about to take a bath.Rebecca was

In the past few days I've received some very good news. First of all, my sister Karen had surgery to remove a cyst she had in her ovary, and I can say that it was good news, because they didn't have to remove her ovary, Woo Hoo! Everyone thought that her ovary was going to be removed, but thankfully they didn't, and she's recuperating faster than expected. By the way I wrote about this in this

Last night was my niece's Farrah prom party. She wanted Rebecca and her younger sister to go with her, so for the past two weeks Rebecca has been excited about going to her first prom.Two days ago I took her to get her first manicure and pedicure to a salon, and yesterday I went with her to get a haircut and get her hair pretty for the party. Of course I took advantage of that and got my hair

Rebecca had her end of the year show, and she had two dances in the show. On the first show she did a ballet dance, but I was too far away to see clearly, and there were so many kids that I couldn't recognize which one was her, so the pictures I took were of other kids, and not of her. I know, I know, what kind of a mother am I that I can't even recognize which one is my daughter, but it was dark

Our friend Javier has been visiting us this week, and a few days ago our friend Mario got here, but we had not seen him yet, so my husband called him two nights ago and they decided that they were going to get together somewhere that night. I have been stuck in the house, since I don't know when, so I got Javier to convince Herland that I should be going with them. Herland didn't really want to

If you people didn't know yet, I am Bolivian, and so I had to write about Human Rights in Bolivia. Most people around the world know so little about my country, and the little they know is mostly bad, either about drugs or poverty, and I have to admit that it is probably true, but it is also true that my country is one of the richest countries in the world, in products that the land gives us and

I just got a call from Bolivia. My sister Mariana called me and told me that my other sister Karen just got home from the doctor and she found out that she has an ovarian cyst that measures 11 centimeters, which is a little bit more than 4 inches. I can't believe this because just a year ago Karen went to Bolivia for vacation and the same thing happened.A year ago I got an ovarian cyst removed,

My mother's day, like every mother's day that I've had, was a total disappointment. In the morning I felt like just staying in bed and watch a movie, so that's what I did. Herland had to go out to do something, so I didn't cook, thinking that we were going out to eat, when he got back, the kids and I were almost ready to go out, so I ask him where we were going to have lunch, he just looked at me

Today I almost had a coronary. I went to pick up Leonardo after school and he wasn't where I ask him to wait for me, so I went around the school, like six times until I decided to get down and look for him.I had picked up Rebecca earlier from school because she wasn't feeling well, and I usually call her before I get there, so that they know I'm almost there, but Leo doesn't have a cell phone, so

This is a street in a little town called San Ramon, in Beni, Bolivia. I took this picture when I went there in 2005. I really like small towns, they are very picturesque, and the people there were so nice to me. San Ramon is very close to where my dad has his cattle ranch.

Very sad news about some friend of ours, my husband just called me to say that our friends request for residency has been denied a second time, so that means that they really have to back to our country.

Sometimes I wish my dad wouldn't have such a good memory. Last night I was talking to him over the phone, and he's asking me if we already know what date we are going to be traveling to Bolivia (He lives there), so I tell him that I don't know yet, but it looks like as soon as the kids go on vacation. Then I tell him that there is a very big chance that we are moving over there for a year, and of

I had a total deja vu an hour ago. I was walking out of the pharmacy with my bag of feminine stuff I had bought and the funniest moment just came to my mind. This happened to my sister and I when we thought we were the coolest in town. I was 14 years old and my sister Karen was 12. We always had maids that did everything we wanted or needed. It's not that I'm being conceited but in Bolivia

BORED OUT OF MY MIND!!! If you were wondering how I'm feeling, well there it is. Herland and I usually go out a lot, and by a lot I mean one or two times a week, which, for a married couple with three kids is a lot, and if we don't go out, our friends like to come and visit us, so we are never too bored. Since we've been sick, we haven't gone anywhere and of course no one wants to come over,

So the doctor said I have my right ear looking like it's gonna explode and my chest is wheezing like if there were twenty cats inside it, but now I have medicine to treat it and I hope that by tomorrow I can get up from my bed

After a month of trying to avoid getting sick, it caught up with me, and I have been in bed all day today. Every time I get sick, it's like getting run over by a train, my whole body aches. I must have done something really bad to deserve feeling like this. Hmm, let me think, yup I have done something really bad, I just can't tell you.

Do people believe everything they read or hear? Or do they think to themselves "Hmm, maybe she's just being sarcastic.", because when Herland read my post about my friend Miss Z, he said "Are you crazy!
