June 1 up high

Now we are currently beginning our 3rd move in 6 weeks .Our stuff from sea freight arrived and I was required to tick each item off as it was unloaded into our soon to be permanent apartment .Our current joint is like a 2 bedroom resort style setup.We’ve got a pool ,spa and gym to share with a couple hundred others . The new place has 3 bedrooms with a pool and spa to share with 20 or so apartments . Anyway I had to head back and grab a bite . Now our joint is the top of 3 levels and faces another apartment block . Between each building is a dense group of trees making our balcony very private with little light . You felt like you were in a little rainforest . We always have the doors open with just a fly screen closed . Of course boredom develops a nice little appetite for particular web browsing .Now as I mentioned previously the Mexicans do all the labour and without the restrictions of back home . Anyway as I settle on the couch for research I’m startled by the sounds of Spanish . Out the corner of my eye I spot what at 1st looked like a monkey wedged in this tree 10 meters or more up,looking straight at me. No ,it’s a fuckn tree looper just hanging there trying to lasso a rope . For christs sake is this fucker for real . He could easily have sighted a rare Australian snake and fell .No I do admire them as they’ll do anything for work .Work cover is not going to show up anytime soon over here .These trees previously almost reached into our apartment,until the Mexican gardeners climbed and trimmed them.
