When one manifests Joy, life flows — flow with it.

My Love and I are now happily creating lives together in Guanajuato — a delightful 500-year-old city in the mountains of central Mexico. Thus, as delightful as it has been –the time is right to release my beach condo and the life I created in Puerto Morelos on the Riviera Maya of Quintana Roo.
So. Following an afternoon of camaraderie on the beach, I’m meeting with my friend and Realtor, Kim Temple, to list my condo-home. Kim looks and is, very Professional. Business-like. Somewhat serious. Explaining procedures — when Jenine, a friend from the beach afternoon, knocks on the open door – “Mary? You here? Robert and I just met these people who are looking for a place to buy in Puerto Morelos. Can we come in?” Of course.
With great flair, enter Robert, Jenine, their two new friends Sandra and Tony – originally from Belize and now from Washington state – along with their taxi driver Cesar – all enjoying beers. Being out of beer, we break out wine. Jenine is enthusiastic and animated — showing, describing, sales-pitching my condo – ousting our friends Steve and Nelly from the guest bedroom. They join the party.


Admist the pandemonium, washing machine repairmen arrive.

Noisy, joyful, chaos ensues.
Poor Kim.
We decide to meet tomorrow – papers so far unsigned. Kim leaves.
The party continues. More wine. The taxi driver does a Beer Run. Music with Peter on guitar, Robert on harmonica. Stories. Laughter.


As our new friends get up to leave, Tony collapses.
Oh my.
Too much partying throughout the day?
He’s dragged/carried to the couch for TLC, ice pack, and water.


The party continues. Tony recovers.
The party morphs to El Bistro for homemade Italian.



Did the condo sell?
Not yet.
But it will — with joy, ease, and grace.

When one manifests Joy, life flows — flow with it.
