At the Mall on December 26

I thought my Canadian friends might be interested in this.  I went to the mall – actually, two malls, here in town on the 26th of December.  They were open.  But they were dead.  Not too many people around.  Nice and peaceful, actually.  Never seen them so quiet.

As I walked out in a parking lot, thinking how different things probably were in Canada, I glanced down and saw a licence plate that said Beautiful British Columbia (I don’t think I’ve ever seen another Canadian plate here in Ixtapaluca, except people we know)!

I guess old habits die hard – that mall has probably never seen such a high percentage of Canadians!

I wasn’t at the mall looking for deals, I was actually getting what I hope will be the last prescribed drugs I need for a while.  I’ve been fighting some kind of stomach thing since before conference (at the end of November).  I was actually quite sick at conference, then got a little better, then worse again.

Anyway, after several doctor’s visits, I think I’m on the mend.  The doctor things I’m probably somewhat undernourished after all that time, so he’s got me on some super-vitamins for a while.  Between that and the turkey, I should do fine… 😉
