I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can!

BOOKS DONATIONS NEEDED in English & Spanish & ESPECIALLY KIDS for the Little Free Library Puriscal • DONACIONES LIBROS NECESARIOS en Inglés y Español y especialmente los niños para la pequeña biblioteca libre Puriscal


image1.JPG

Little Free Library Puriscal

It’s a “take a book, return a book” gathering place where neighbors share their favorite literature and stories. In its most basic form, a Little Free Library is a box full of books where anyone may stop by and pick up a book (or two) and bring back another book to share (a Book Exchange)

They are in need of Spanish novels and kids books.



Objetivo principal:
Proveer a los habitantes de Puriscal, acceso gratuito a diferentes tipos de libros, para fortalecer el desarrollo cultural y apreciación por la literatura del pueblo Puriscaleño, a través de un sistema de intercambio de libros. Este proyecto no significaría ningún costo a la Municipalidad o a los habitantes del cantón.

WRITERS GROUPS • WRITING GROUPS in Costa Rica in English - & Writers Resources - Are YOU a Writer / Wanna-be Writer?


Costa Rica seems to be breeding grounds for aspiring and published writers - but it can be a lonely road & challenging to keep focused.  To say nothing about not being sure if what you have works or doesn't.  That's why many writers get involved with

WRITERS GROUPS
or sites for writers!!


I've started a list of Writers Groups in English - so I'm sure that means they're mainly ExPats.

And I'm on a quest to find more groups which I'll share below and you PLEASE add more!!

NOTARY • LAWYER with LOW•Cheap Rates & OPEN Evenings, Saturdays & Sundays - in Escazu, Costa Rica - FLOR de MORENO MORA

(L-R - Flor and doTerra's Adele Notarizing some documents!)
NOTARY • LAWYER • ABOGADO

FLOR de MORENO Mora

FLOR de MORENO Mora is a NOTARY which UN-like in the U.S., a "NOTARY" in Costa Rica is a HIGHER form of a Lawyer • Abogado who has completed additional 2 years of training and are certified specifically as Notaries.  They are who you OFTEN MUST use to get LOTS of things done around here (hence you get to spend MUCH more $$$/colones to get things done in Costa Rica)(how DIFFERENT that is from the U.S.!!)!!


A few years ago I had her notarize some U.S. Inheritance Papers (never got anything from it - booo!!) for me (MEGA EASY) plus Adele to Flor at 7pm on a Friday evening to do Car Transfer papers (a bit complicated) and both times she charged just 10,000-colones (about $20 [NOTE rates have I'm sure gone up but )!!!   One guy DESPERATELY NEEDED some documents signed on a Sunday and she was there for him!!!

Plus she is REALLY SWEET!!! 

LANGUAGE:  
Flor does NOT SPEAK much English but I think she understands a LOT more than she lets on!
(Don't speak much Español?   Bring a friend - or have an English/Spanish speaking taxi driver bring you.  NOTE if you use them for anything more than a Point A to Point B ride, PLEASE be VERY GENEROUS with your tip to them and or ask what their hourly rate would be to help you!!
See my list of English-Speaking Taxi Drivers at: 
LivingLifeInCostaRica.blogspot.com/2012/08/EnglishSpeakingTaxisCR.html
RATES:
Rates vary by what she is doing and how long it takes but I can tell you, she had the CHEAPEST rates of any Notary I've encounters•heard of!!!.

HOURS:  
Since she works from her house she is often available when others are not including evenings, Saturdays AND Sundays for emergencies!

LOCATION:  
Escazu (Centro)
a couple blocks West of the Beacon Hotel (she'll give you directions when you make an appointment)


CONTACT:  
2-228-1797 • 8-880-7983 • FMoreno@abagados.or.cr

NOTE:
If you find someone who's services you like, PLEASE do NOT hoard their information to yourself (often I find people are like this because they're afraid of them not having access to their service if/when they may need it again one day - or because they're afraid their prices will go up if they get busy -
BUT -
what most likely will happen is they may HAVE to closer their business - because people did not share their info!!!)

FEMALE OB GYN in Costa Rica (that speaks GOOD English & has a good bedside manner)

I find it odd how MANY male OB-GYN's there are in the world.  I tend to normally favor male doctors (no particular reason other than it just happens like that a lot) but when it comes to gynecological issues, I don't get gals going to a male doctor because as much as I don't like to separate gender - there is NO WAY a guy can REALLY GET what I'm talking about when I talk about a certain pain, etc. "down there" - just like it's hard for us to get the pain they feel when they get kicked in the balls - right??  There's NO WAY he can "get" the concept of a Hot Flash or cramps now can he???

So I ONLY go to FEMALE DOCTORS for my pap smears, GYN Exams, Breast Exams or anything else dealing with female issues!!

This is a good FEMALE OB - GYN doctor at CIMA that speaks good ENGLISH, is VERY thorough, answers questions and has a good bedside manner.  I have been to her before and have shared her information with MANY people and EVERYONE's RAVED about her!!


PRICES:
Consultation  -  40,000
GYN Exam•Pap  -  50,000-gyn exam
Ultra Sound (breasts)  -  25,000
Cash only. 

HOURS:
Mon.-Fri. - 10am-6pm

CONTACT:
Dr. Sae-Hui Kim
(2-208-1214 / SKim@HospitalCIMA.com [run it all together])


LOCATION:
Escazu-CIMA's Medical Office Building-2nd floor - #14 (the building next to the hospital)

FOUND DOG • PERRO ENCONTRADO - Black Labrador (Labrador negro?) (now to find the LOST FAMILY) in Pinares, CURRIDABAT area of Costa Rica



CURRIDABAT - FOUND DOG - KNOW ANYONE MISSING THIS SWEETIE?

I'm double checking to make sure he's still seeking his family but here is what was written about him (from what I'm putting together from TranslateGoogle).
"This precious pooch (I'm assuming it's a "he" because gender sometimes gets lost in translation) has been wandering the street in Pinares, CURRIDABAT for a few days, searching for his home. He even went up to Ligia Castro (who's seen him) & was affectionate, but he's still hanging around. He has nice hair (I guess indicating he's clean & not a street dog??) & when he sees a car stop he goes up to see who it is, as if he's waiting/looking for their owners.

Has anyone you know indicated they're a LOST FAMILY missing him? Does he look familiar?
 
I'm not sure if it's needed (sounds like it is), maybe someone can foster him till his family is found so he's not wandering the streets - fending for himself in the rain.

Maybe some of you have some time & can go on my

http://facebook.com/LovingYourPetHouseSitting
Where I have a couple hundred animal groups in my "Likes" and find groups to share it - or call some veterinarian offices to see if anyone's asked about him - or the vet has taken care of him over the years


PLEASE "SHARE" & if you know anything &/or can help -
Call Ligia at 8-391-9700

(when his family is found, can you please let me know so I can remove this from my blog)

PERRO ENCONTRADO - Labrador Negro

En Pinares, Curridabat, anda hace días un perrito perdido, da vueltas todo el día, buscando su casa, hoy se me acercó, es cariñoso, pero sigue dando vueltas, tiene el pelo bonito, ve un carro parar y se va a ver quien viene, como esperando a sus dueños. Por favor compartir. Info 83919700

CAA - Community Action Alliance charity - San Ramon, Costa Rica - May 2015 Newsletter

Please support CAA in helping the Hogarcito San Ramon Orphanage. Encourage  donations from friends for the Orphanage Transportation Project. Volunteer for a a new project.  Become a Birthday Buddy. Attend the upcoming benefit theatre (June 28) and jazz (July 19) performances.
View this email in your browser
Hogarcito San Ramon Orphanage Transportation Project is one-third funded in 30 days! Together, CAA members and their family, friends, and associates donated $1,110. To add incentive, one CAA couple announced they will match donations 1:1 up to $5,000! Duly inspired, another CAA member contributed $1,000! Project donations now total $4,220.

Next Wednesday, May 13 there is yet another matching funds opportunity. GlobalGiving, our USA funding partner,  will match donations up to $1,000 on a pro-rated basis for all projects on May 13, starting at 9am EDT for 15 hours.
Please spread the word! Share the GlobalGiving project link http://goto.gg/20057 on your social networks, emails, websites, and in conversations with your family, friends, and associates. Ask them to help Hogarcito San Ramon buy a vehicle and ensure safe transportation for students, provide reliable transportation in medical emergencies, and return one caregiver’s time to the orphanage. Donations made through GlobalGiving can be made once or on a recurring basis, and they are tax deductible in the USA.

For Costa Rica friends who prefer to donate directly, you can suggest a direct bank transfer (or deposit) to Hogarcito San Ramon account #100-1-0200002779-3 Banco National in the name of Asocacion de Proteccion a la Infancia de San Ramon. Please note ‘Car Donation’. This is not a USA tax deductible donation.
CAA recently asked the Hogarcito San Ramon orphanage Director and Board President to prioritize the projects where they could use the help of CAA members and supporters. Are you interested in volunteering your energy, skills, or resources to help?

Construction and Repairs - Fix leaky roof in children’s recreational room,  install plastic roofing above outside infant play area, install room ventilation solution, install 8 ceiling fans, paint 5 beds, baby-proofing project, renovate outside entrance and signage, repair bikes, fix empty field for bike riding, soccer and kite flying. Contact: andy95066@gmail.com
Creative Projects - Family tree in central room, complete outside murals, canvas murals for children’s rooms, butterfly/hummingbird garden, newly painted tires for playground, reupholster table chairs and sofa, and kites for children. Contact: havah777@yahoo.com or nancy@actionalliancecr.com

Monetary Donations - Field trip expense fund for movies, pizza and more, 5 new mattresses, 10 sets of sheets for toddler beds. Contact: nancy@actionalliancecr.com.
Help make the birthdays of children at the Hogarcito San Ramon orphanage extra special! CAA individuals are creating Birthday Buddy Bags for the children at the orphanage. Each Birthday Buddy Bag provides a fun party for a child age birth to 12 years old. Aromas delivers the birthday cake, the orphanage provides a birthday present, and the Birthday Buddy volunteer provides items such as drinks, candles, balloons, game prizes, and small 'favor bags' for the other orphanage children at the party. Right now we’re looking for Birthday Buddies for 5 children.

If you'd like to be a Birthday Buddy for a child, please email Dianne Fischer at dfischercr@gmail.com to volunteer. Don't worry! Dianne will help you with the details and coordinate the delivery of the bag to the orphanage in time for the birthdays.
Join your friends on Sunday June 28, 1pm at SINEM for "Liars, Lovers, and Fools", an eclectic mix of scenes and monologues featuring characters invented by Shakespeare and brought to life on stage by the Merely Players! Proceeds go to Hogarcito San Ramon Orphanage Transportation Project. Cost is C5,000. Food, wine, and beer will be available for purchase. Seating is limited so please RSVP by email to events@actionalliancecr.com.

Shakespeare’s characters are so well crafted and their dialogue so illustrative of human nature, that the epithet “Liars, Lovers, and Fools” encompasses any of Shakespeare’s plays. This production captures the richness and wit of the best of The Bard’s ‘liars, lovers, and fools’ in a lively and entertaining performance.

The Merely Players are a group of actors within the Little Theatre Group of Costa Rica (www.littletheatregroup.org) who enjoy interpreting some of the great roles and scenes from the canon of classical theatre, most notably the works of William Shakespeare.
Joe Anello Jazz Quartet performs in concert on Sunday July 19, 12pm at Magallanes Community Center in San Ramon. Proceeds go to the Hogarcito San Ramon Orphanage Transportation Project.  A cover charge of C5,000 includes snacks and is your donation. Wine and beer will be available for purchase. RSVP by email to events@actionalliancecr.com.

As many of you know, Joe was a professional drummer in the states for years. He formed the quartet after he retired to Costa Rica and they now play jazz in different venues in Costa Rica. Joe is no stranger to San Ramon audiences, performing regularly at the Museo and La Geroca. Here’s a taste for a mellow rainy day: Blackbird CAA wishes to thank Joe and his group for their generous donation of time and talent for this benefit performance.
