Mrs O was Tex Mex we used a lot of Spanish slang around the house. I had 3 years of it in HS but neither of us were truly fluent. I ended up speaking better German than Spanish.Not much new here between senior moments, but I've been spending endless hours taking Spanish at a website "Duolingo." I found them by googleing "free Spanish lessons." There are half a dozen sites, but this one had a lot of joy of speaking Spanish on the part of its owners. With a lot of new people coming from all over Central America and Mexico, I wanted to make sure I learned some Spanish. I took a year in the mid eighties to learn some Spanish, but never used it since a year barely scratches the surface. This time all the rules are tossed and their lessons make me want the next one because their method is comprehensive in teaching little bites at a time.
My brain is getting to be a crowded place. Yall have a good evening.
Y Buenas noches!
So glad you came back, Peach! I'm still wearing out one digit use on the phone for over a year. One day I just unplugged my computer to move it upstairs, and I never could get which plug went where as my server had 5 places. I threw in the towel and found a way to get here using the cell phone. Lol!
Aye yi yi! Well you're way up north. We have many Spanish speaking people down here in the Great Piney Woods of Texas , so I decided it would be nice to understand what is being said in one of our many Mexican restaurants, although the local favorite one is still closed.Mrs O was Tex Mex we used a lot of Spanish slang around the house.

And you made good use of it and tracked me down. Got a new computer myself as my laptop is dying and only will boot when I ask nice. Those of you that know me know how unlikely THAT would be. Anyway, a lot has gone on since I stopped in last. Doc Holliday's is thriving and despite being shuttered for 10 weeks only to open to restriction of hours and capacities we finished 2020 in the black with a gross slightly above 2019 and about 4 times 2014 (our first year) In July of 2018, we purchased the building and immediately set about hiring architects to draw up a kitchen addition. Progress was slow due to it being a relatively small project and we were finally ready to start bu Feb. 2020 and then, the SHTF with covid. Money that would have gone to the addition instead went to maintaining health insurance for employees and liquor liability and all insurance on the building plus taxes minimal utilities and security. For the 10 weeks we were closed, there was someone in the building at all times. I slept there with a 12 gauge and a pistol close at hand as there were several cases of looting in the area. Thankfully no one died although I heard the door rattle about 1:30 AM one night. A sad customer saw some lights on and wanted a beer. Sorry can't do that, fella.
Buenas Dias. I had to learn some Santa Fe street which is more Spanglish than Spanish just to survive my Santa Fe years back in the 1950's when the Chicano (not referred to as Hispanic) population significantly outnumbered everybody else. Took classes in high school and college but never became fluent. Spanish is not my best second language for sure because I cannot roll my r's which is essential for correct pronunciation of many Spanish words. But oh well. . . . What I did manage to learn and remember served me well many times working in this state.Not much new here between senior moments, but I've been spending endless hours taking Spanish at a website "Duolingo."

So happy every time you've checked in Peach and it has been far too long between those check points.
But congrats on the new 'puter. I would be miserable trying to do this on my phone too.
I do better with Italian and French accents than I do Spanish, but haven't learned nearly as many words/phrases in those languages.Mrs O was Tex Mex we used a lot of Spanish slang around the house.

OMGosh Ernie, so very happy to hear from you. I have wondered so many times how you were, where you were, and so many have asked. You (and Peach) have been very much missed persons. Yay!!!
