I'd love to have a full translation of this postcard from my gu Jasha Finkelstein to my gf Sol Finkelstein

This may be a mix of Yiddish, Spanish and Ukranian--not sure.

This card was sent by Jasha to his older brother Sol in 1928. Jasha emmigrated from Russia/Ukraine/Poland to Argentina in the 1920s while Sol went to the US. I don't know when Jasha married, but his wife's name was Louisa. The brothers stayed in touch their entire lives. Any info you can provide would be most welcome.
thank you

see also the posting for a postcard from Jasha to Sol's brother Leo Fink.

My dears
You probably received my last letter with photos, but I get no letters from you. Today I received a letter from home, not a very good letter. They wrote that they got from you 70$, 30 for the month and 40 for the town (probably taxes). How are you my dear? I am the same, working. One of these days I'll write you a detailed letter.
Be well, hugs from your devoted brother Yasha.
Regards to all the friends
