Another Full Weekend; Inspection in Amador; Decrease in cases; What does the teleworking law cover?; Remnants of a Wood Project

Monday, September 21, 2020 We had a good weekend.  The Packers won.  Yay team.  Speaking of the Packers, we were supposed to be in Wisconsin for the wedding of our cousin, but given the circumstances, we’ll have to wait for the celebration of their first-born.  Hopefully by then, we’ll be out of this mess.  I’mguessing somewhere between 9 and 100 months from now. […]

Whelming; Postcovid clinic; Telework Law; Visa payment date extended; Teachers

Friday, September 18, 2020 Yesterday I was overwhelmed with health-related tasks.  Usually, I’m overwhelmed with daily tasks, seldom am I underwhelmed.  But yesterday, although somewhat burdened, I felt balanced. Apart from my normal load of work, I decided to pack as many travel-specific meetings as possible all into one day.  Even though we’re allowed to […]

Wednesday, September 16, 2020 Sunday night, as I attempted to get my point across to those of you who enjoy reading babble as you drink your morning brew, I did so with a broken keyboard.  The letters “b” and “n” just decided to rebel, which put me to having to copy/paste my words together.  Ironically, […]

Monday, September 14, 2020 For the past few months, our family as well as may other families throughout Panama ad very probably throughout the entire world, have been looking for the best ways to occupy their time I ways they ever have before.  Prepandemic, we all took time on the weekends to do whatever it […]

Less Hate and More Love; Sanitary measures when entering Panama; Six months of fighting against Covid-19; Long distance education; Love Me Some Toucans

Friday, September 11, 2020 Do you remember 9/11?  Do you remember what you were doing when you heard the news?  If you do anything today, just take a moment to remember that day, but remember also how on 9/12, we pulled together as a nation with US flags being sold out in less than a […]

Grounded for life!!; Vaccine Trials Delayed in Panama; Equine antibodies to Covid patients; WHO talks about cases of reinfection; The Things I Miss

Wednesday, September 09, 2020 Well, this weekend, the both of them got a little too rambunctious and through a fit of anger between the two of them, they committed a very clear and concise “on purpose” that couldn’t go unpunished.  Through technology, we are blessed through easier forms of communications but we’re also cursed with […]

Barely a Dent; Reopening; Panama awaits German vaccine to start trial; What happened after the reopening in Los Santos; Brett’s Cheat Flan!

Monday, September 07, 2020 The weekend started with a plan, just like any weekend should.  Being on this relaxed lockdown is a lockdown nonetheless.  But, I’ve not only gotten used to it, I’ve actually come to enjoy it.  It’s the sort of enjoyment I’d entertain as being similar to being given the privilege of reading […]

Where was Brett?; Agglomerations in San Francisco for solidarity bonds; Preliminary draft of vaccines; Patience is requested to reopen; More Weekend Gardening

Friday, September 04, 2020 Ohhhmmmm… Technology is my friend…  Ohhhmmmm….  Technology will do me no harm….  Ohhhmmmm….  Technology is all about efficiency and could never stand in my way while I try to conduct my business….  Maybe if I meditate on that long enough, I’ll actually start believing it.  It’ll be like self-imposed or self-inflicted […]

The Point about Protests; Keys for the execution of the national opening plan; La Chorrera sanitary fence is eliminated; New test for Covid-19 detector; Fitting Quotes

Friday, August 28, 2020 Watching what’s going on in Kenosha, Wisconsin is simply horrible from every angle.  This beautiful little town of around 100,000, nestled on the shores of Lake Michigan and calmly located right between Chicago and Milwaukee, has somehow come into the spotlight for the whole world to see.  Being from Wisconsin, it’s […]

I’m Lovin’ September; New reopening plan, Lower number of new cases and deaths from Covid-19 in the world; Relief measures for companies; Favorite Selfies

Wednesday, August 26, 2020 The Panamanian government started off great in April when they announced the 6 blocks established for reopening the economy.  It didn’t take long for them to realize that the plan wasn’t going to work and they needed to make other adjustments.  But, instead of adjusting, they dabbled here, dribbled there and […]
