@erawls Hi Elaine!, It’s been a long time I hearn’t notice from you. I hope you find well. I’ve been worried about Jane’s health but now I think she’s well and I’m very happy for her. I miss so much when she used to write on the blog, I know she’s working too in any other important things as well. I’m following Fire Drill Fridays and I’m happy…[Read more]

@erawls Hi Elaine!,
How long without knews about you!. I’ve been in Ireland for a couple of months trying to improve my English, now I’m in Madrid for two weeks. I suppose that you’re completely recovered of your illness, however I’ve had a very unpleasant episode of vertigo and I still have not fully recovered, I live with a certain dizziness and…[Read more]-
Hi Floren! Good to hear from you! Sorry you are suffering with vertigo. I have been taking medical tests for my back and acid reflux. I have had an ulcer and hiatal hernia. Both are on the mend. I go back to doctor on June 1st for results on back. I suffer with osteoarthritis like Jane. I have already had several surgeries on shoulder, both hands,…[Read more]

@erawls Hi Elaine!,
How are you? Have you fully recovered?
I haven’t followed the news of the pandemic in the USA for a long time, is everything okay? We’re reducing the cases day by day and the mask is no longer mandatory when you are outdoors without crowds. I go for a walk every day with a group of friends and it’s already appreciated to be…[Read more]-
Hi Floren!! Good to hear from you! I’m better thank you. How are you? The pandemic is up and down. Some places still require masks, some don’t. I just go with the flow. I am fully vaccinated, and have had covid, so I feel that I will be ok. I keep busy with my two grand children. Picking geandson up from school, Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts.…[Read more]

@erawls Hi Elaine,
I’m so glad you fill better. I also congratulate you on Thanksgiving, I believe it’s an Anglo Saxon custom, we don’t celebrate it. We gather all the famly in December the 24th Holy Night to have dinner. It’s not a night for giving presents, for us this night is January 6th when every year The Three Kings come home full of…[Read more] -

@erawls Hi Elain,
How is everything? Are you feeling better? Autumn has begun here, although it’s not very cold yet. Many people like fall, not me especially, it’s true there’re some very beautiful colors in the field but I like days with a lot of light, I hate the cold. Hoping you’re fine, a big hug
Floren-
Hi Floren! I am doing much better!! The weather here is 40’s at night and 70’s during the day. Some cooler days here and there. Don’t know if you celebrate Thanksgiving there, but if you do I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving day with family and friends. Big hugs back to you!!

@erawls Hi Elaine! Do you feel better? I hope so. This week Gloria Steinem has been among us to collect her award, I have seen and heard her, it seems incredible to me, she’s a great woman, I’ve seen her very happy and excited, me too. Regards

Hi Floren!! I am some better. Still dealing with the shingles, but better. How are you? So glad you got to see Gloria Steinem! She is a great activist! Like Jane! Jane is so busy!

@erawls Hello Elaine, Today here is a warm and sunny day, around 70, very pleasant. I like spring and summer always too!!!!, I already count the days until then ha ha, for me it’s important to reach January when the days begin to grow and I begin to cheer up, the short days depress me a lot. I still don’t rule out going somewhere on the beach…[Read more]

@erawls Hi Elaine,
It took me a little while to answer you because I’ve being spending a few days on hollidays visiting Seville and Cádiz in Andalusia, my favorite places in Spain. The beaches of Cádiz are beautiful, at night from the roof of our hotel you can see the lights of the city of Tangier in Morocco, for me that I’m from the north, this…[Read more]-
Hi Floren!!
It is good to hear from you! The pictures are beautiful! You look like you are having a great time!! The beaches sound amazing.
I am doing better from the shingles. Still have the awful pain, but better. I am encouraging everyone to get the shingles vaccination. Yes it is bad for older people to get it.
Take care and a BIG hug back to y0u!!

@erawls Hello,
How’s everything after Hurricane Ida? All right? I hope so. Climate change will continue to give us unpleasant surprises, here we’ve had a heat wave a few weeks ago with temperatures above 45 C degrees and these days there are intense rains in unusual places, including Toledo, do you remember we talking about it? It’s incredible.…[Read more] -

@erawls Madrid is 440 km far from here. I’ve been in Madrid last weekend on my way back from a trip to Italy, in fact I go very often, I will be back next week. Precisely on Monday we went to Toledo, which I had not visited for a long time, it’s a beautiful city with an incredible history, do you know that Sephardic Jews basically come from…[Read more]

@erawls I live in Asturias in the north of Spain, near the Cantabrian Sea. I live in the countryside but near Oviedo city, Asturias’ capital. I like walking almost daily and take photos, I’m trying to send you some of them to give you an idea of the landscape from here but at the moment I can’t, It doesn’t work

@erawls Hello Elaine!, I’ve made a big mistake, I’m sorry!, maybe it’s that I’m improving my English ha ha. The good thing is that we’re connected in this blog in any language with the common denominator that Jane Fonda offers. In my country she’s loved and admired as an actress and as a person without any discussion and I’m very proud of it. A hug

@erawls Thank you for accepting my invitation to friendship. Do you speak Spanish? It seems to me that when you write your expressions are similar when we, Spaniards, speak English. I don’t know, if not, excuse my point of view, in any case I am happy to establish contact, I live in Spain and I closely follow the things that happen in all of…[Read more]
Hugs to you Floren!! It has been a long time! Glad to hear from you. I am doing well. Still having some back issues but overall doing well. Hope you are good too. Yes I was worried about Jane at first with her cancer, but I knew if anyone could be ok and beat it – it was Jane! She has been extremely busy with her traveling, Fire Drill Fridays, and…[Read more]
