"Se me cayó el cuero." "No papi, yo toybaquí atrá." 339/366 #project366 #december #2016 No se de qué me reí más, si de los chistes de @carloscomic y @cuquinvictoriaoficial o de la "peculiar" risa de sirena de 911 de @econcepcionphoto 😂😂😂

Selfie #fmsphotoaday #fms_selfie #december #2016 I don't really like to take selfies, but my hair felt very "Farrah Fawcett" today. 🙂

Jodío mime 338/366 #project366 #december #2016 This mornings was my niece and nephew's solidarity marathon at school and since I like being there for them in all their activities, their mom asked me to join them. I ran 300 mts with my godson (his mom ran the last 100, I was out of air and she has 2 broken fingers in one if her feet, so we made a good team) and cheered my niece all thru her race. I felt something flying around or walking on me the rest of the morning, but I imagined it was grass bugs. Well, whatever it was, it stung my left calf and right shin, which are now hot, red and very swollen. Aside from that, the effort of dragging this very overweight body for 300 mts without previous warmup has taken its toll on this aging girl and right now my legs feel as if they weigh 300 pounds each. I'll be having such a lovely sleepy time tonight... 😑

Morning sky #fmsphotoaday #fms_morningsky #december #2016 The sun was barely out when I left home this morning, but I managed to catch its rays showering the buildings around me. I wonder if I'll have the strength to go with my yearly ritual of photographing the first sun of the new year this year...

Hands #fmsphotoaday #fms_hands #november #2016 Almost 2 years ago mom almost lost this hand to an infection caused by an IV while she was getting blood transfusions to save her life from an pneumonia that got complicated and almost took her life as well. When dad was alive they used to sleep holding hands and every once in a while she checked to see if he was still there, breathing by her side. I've been sleeping with her ever since dad passed away and now she holds my hand while we sleep and touches my face to check if I'm there, breathing besides her.

Sunshine #fmsphotoaday #fms_sunshine #november #2016 By the time I remembered today's prompt it was almost sunset and the bright sun has given way to storm clouds. Still, I managed to catch the last rays of sunshine on a electricity pole with a rainbow as a bonus.

Today I... #fmsphotoaday #fms_todayi Today I thought about you the whole day. I wonder how you're doing, I wonder if you're comfortable and happy. I wonder if you are proud of me. I wonder so much, not due to lack of faith but for pure curiosity. Today was the 6 month anniversary of the day on which you took your last breath on this earth, but it seems like you left yesterday, at least for me. Te extraño cada día más, papi.

Cuddle up! 332/366 #project366 #november #2016 Today I decided to have some "me time" and cuddle up with my babies. They all hopped in bed with me and we watched some Star Trek in peace.

What I saw today #fmsphotoaday #fms_whatisawtoday #november #2016 So I hadn't hear noises at home for a while and I go out to the living room to see what's wrong (there must be something wrong when you live in an apartment with 5 kittens and a Chihuahua and you don't hear a sound) to find these 5 sound asleep. Pancho isn't in the picture because he was jumping by my side, but he was sleeping among them when I came out.

On my plate #fmsphotoaday #fms_onmyplate #november #2016 Friday's at my mom's are fish and rice with corn day. It has been raining non-stop for the past few weeks (if not months) in some parts of my country and rivers are dangerously overflowing. The little town where my mom was born, Arenoso, is flooded by the waters of the Yuna river. I have relatives who live there, thankfully they're ok since they live in a two-story concrete house, but they've had no electricity or food for the past days. All the crops have gone to waste, animals have drowned, basic infrastructure have collapsed, people have lost their houses and belongings, they're in a state of emergency right now. I'm thankful that I have food on my plate, running water and electricity today, I will sleep in a cozy bed and maybe even with some tv; my uncle and aunt and the rest of the Dominicans who live on the disaster areas aren't so lucky. My cousin had to almost swim to get to his house earlier in order to bring his parents some food today (they don't want to leave because they're afraid to lose what little they have left to burglars), since the town is literally in communicated due to the flood, unaccessible via land vehicles. Meanwhile, the authorities are nowhere to be found (as usual). If you are a believer, please say a prayer not only for the inhabitants of Arenoso but for the rest of those living on the affect communities of the Dominican Republic. I'm thinking about going over to Arenoso on Sunday, if the weather permits and if Vicikiana (my SUV) decides to use on her old diving fins, after confirming with my cousin that the highway is secure enough for travel. May God have mercy on all of us. If there is any way you. An help, please let me know and I'll set up something with my cousin.

I'm thankful for... #fmsphotoaday #fms_thankful #november #2016 This has been the worst year of my life so far. I lost my father in May and my life has been turned upside down ever since. I know I'm depressed but I've been trying really hard for it not to majorly screw my life this time around. When the dark thoughts approach me, I force myself to think about the good things in my life and little by little the thoughts go back into their corner, at least for a short while. That is why I'm thankful, for having had the chance to enjoy my father for 42 years, for still having my mother around, for my family even though we're not in the best moment right now, for my friends and extended family, for my pets, for my faith, for my job (even in times of "drought"), for having a roof over my head and food on my table, for breathing, for my wrecked health (still healthier than others), for each and every problem that makes me grow stronger, even for those people who annoy me and make my life colorful. For that and for many things more, I am grateful and thank the Lord. Now, I don't know about you, but this angel-shaped wick have me hope today. Even for that I'm grateful. #thanksgiving

Photo of photo #fmsphotoaday #fms_photo #november #2016 These are my siblings and I (I'm the cute toddler with a scared look on my face, thankyouverymuch). When I came into this world big bro was already in his teens, sis and maquejide brother were almost there, so I basically had 2 moms and 3 dads while growing up (oh, the hours in therapy). We were fun, we played pranks on each other (they played pranks on me) l, we fought (we literally wrestled WWF style), we had each others' back. We were all good.

Family #fmsphotoaday #fms_family #november #2016 Family is such a complicated term. These are people you HAVE to love even when sometimes all you wanna do is punch them right smack in the middle of their face. These are people you grew up with, with whom you've been thru good and bad. People who even at your worst are there for you. This is my family (and a couple of friends) on our last trip together, when we crossed the Atlantic sea on a boat, rode trains all over Europe, laughed, made fun of each other and basically had all around fun. This was when we were still one.

A plane leaves every day 321/366 #project366 #november #2016 Today I was almost mugged by a "motorista" when I got to my friend's building. I was walking towards the entrance when this guy on a bike approached me from behind and told me "don't move". I ignored him and continued walking and shouted "guard, open the door, this guy wants to rob me" while the guy was still telling me to stop. The guard acted quickly and opened the door, the thief stared at me while still on his bike and left. I knew it was bound to happen soon, criminality has risen scarily in my country these past few years, alongside with corruption and poverty. I just never thought I would react this way. I'm sure I'm alive because dad protected me from up there. When things like this happen, all I can think of is leaving the country in search of new horizons, but then I think about my family and friends and how I'm not about to let my beautiful island sink in the hands of these antisocial individuals, so I'm gonna stay and fight for a better tomorrow. I'm still trembling, though.

Tía Milita vino a pasarse unos días con mami ya que no pudo venir cuando papi falleció y tía Loly también aprovechó para pasarse unos días aquí. Han reído, han llorado, han cantado, han hecho cuentos de su niñez, han chismeado, se han acostado de madrugada hablando hasta de botánica. Ha sido bueno ver a mami sonriendo en estos días y excelente haberlas tenido con nosotras. Espero que esto se repita más a menudo.

Horizon #fmsphotoaday #fms_horizon #november #2016 I was out of the city today and it was raining all day long. Coming back home mom wanted to buy some sweet potatoes but I thought we weren't going to be able to due to the rain. When we were close to Villa Altagracia (where you can buy sweet potatoes from vendors right next to the highway) the sky suddenly cleared up just enough for us to buy them and for me to see the horizon, complete with moon and everything.

Home sweet home #fmsphotoaday #fms_homesweethome #november #2016 Home is where your heart is, and mine has been on the same coordinates ever since I was born. Well, my heart is in two places now, here and where dad's ashes rest. I haven't been spending much time at MY home since I've been keeping mom company after dad passed away, but considering that we live in the same building, coordinates haven't changed, just the height.
