Forgot about Easter....

Easter is April 8, 2012.

Why is this important? Especially since I don't observe it?

Well... I could be in Costa Rica. And in Costa Rica La Semana Santa (April 1-8) is pocaloca. Prices go sky high. Ticos actually travel! Transportation is iffy; some days there is none.

So... My trip to Costa Rica needs to be rethought. Quickly. I want to buy tickets by November 1st at the latest.

This should be the weather map for December:

All this means is planning around April 1st-8th by leaving end of March, staying through mid-April if I have a place till then (not the time to travel around the country) or staying through the end of April and being back in Montana in May. Considering I'd like to visit Scandinavia some May... and England is nice then too... this creates a bit of an issue. I seem to need some time between trips to rest up. I did fine in England then couldn't move for a month afterward.

My new meds should help and the diet in Costa Rica and ability to be more active could mean I lose 20 pounds. Doc says 10-15; but, I know better. Need to lose close to 40. But should have more energy after losing 20.

Choices. I could decide to go just 3 months. Part of me doesn't want to commit to 5 months. The other part gets energized just thinking about returning. I need to return!

Just like I need to return to the Plains. Possibly even move back there...

Life is interesting. At my advanced age I need to decide whether I sit and do nothing the rest of my life or push myself to stay alive and active. I'm not dead yet!
