Holiday!

I was up and went out for my usual 10K. What fun... it was drizzling!

I was home and after a shower, Alan and Isaiah were on the couch watching the Chargers game. They won!

At 10am, before the game was finished, we left to go apartment hunting again. We had hoped to go see 8 to 9, but we only saw 6. Of the 6, there were two that were real possibilities. We shall see...

We went to Costco and PXMart and this little food shops and bought things for church and for the dinner get together.

We got to their house early and rested out in front... It was good to nap!

The dinner was great... just old friends hanging out together... we didn't get home until 11:15.

Fenny stayed over night here as it was too late to drive her home... Alan was tired!

Splendid PR Day!

I need to get to bed earlier... 

Anyhow, I was up by 4:45 and out by 6am for my usual 10K. It was warmer than I expected with a nice sprinkling of rain!

I was home and after a shower, I started a pot of onion and potatoes. Wow... it smelled so good!

Alan and Isaiah took off for work and I settled down to read... Splendid!

At 11:30, I headed out to the local market and to the library and to the supermarket. It was the usual items: Chinese romaine lettuce, dragon fruit, carrots, soy bean milk... and returning books... I was home by 1pm and had a delicious lunch! Then it was back on the sofa for more reading!

At 2pm, I turned on the WiFi and checked my emails and started my blog post.

I had made an appointment for a massage at 5pm... YIPPY!

Dinner was ready when Alan and Isaiah came home from playing basketball.

Tomorrow is a holiday! YIPPY!

Raining, Raining, Raining...

Yes, I was up and yes, I went out for a run... my usual 10K! I saw my usual friends... that was fun.

I was home and after a shower, I went down and got the recycling ready for pick up! I came back up before they arrived!

I made a delicious soup/noodles dish for our meals and then rested!

I really didn't feel like tutoring, but I prayed: if the rain wasn't too bad, I'd go. So, I packed up everything for my Soochow Bible study and tutoring and headed out.

There was traffic and it turned out that a tree had toppled and blocked two lanes... they were working hard to get it cleared off.

Only one person showed up for the study, but four people came for the banana muffins! YEAH!

And tutoring went well... The hour went by so quickly!

I was home by 5:45... and ready to eat my delicious noodles soup... SO YUMMY! I ate way too much.

Tonight we had counseling with a couple!

Tomorrow: PR DAY! YIPPY!

Back to the Doctor!

Don't worry... I only went back to find out about my MRI.

So, I was up early and it was raining. I did my 10K and saw both of my running buddies... It was nice and quiet out there... In fact, the big green entrance gate was closed. We had to do the walk way to get into the park.

I had my shower and cooked another chicken dish. YEAH. Our fridge is set for this week! And I still have veggies that I haven't cooked!

I rested and left at 10am, checking the recycling first. I was there by 10:15 and they were only on number 11. I was number 18. I finally got called at 11:15. It was a fast appointment. Some degeneration... I will just watch and wait.

I was home and made myself a salad... YUMMY!

Alan was home and went to get a new mouse as the one they gave him was faulty. Yes, they will give him a new one! I hope they will throw in something else for free!

I called one of the church sisters as the 'ordeal' has continued... Please keep praying... 

Tonight I had my Bible study... it's always good to see these ladies!

Monday Down Pour!

I saw the weather forecast and knew that the temperature would drop as well as the rain!

I was up early... as the boys were up early. They got up to watch the Chargers game. (They lost to the Bolts... I think it was 38-24??)

I went out for my run in the rain... completely soaked but it was nice to be out. There weren't many who were out there, but I saw my usual 'friends'.

Then I was home and after a shower, I did a load of laundry. 

I headed out to the Mortuary as a dear friend's father passed away. It was weird to be there... this man shares the same birthday as my Mom... but was 20 years younger!

I headed home after the simple service and got home by 12:30. I rode very slowly as the rain was coming down pretty hard! Some of those drops were fairly big... and powerful!

I had put dinner in the rice cooker and that was finished when I got home. Very yummy. Yes, I ate it for lunch!

After putting things away, I sat and rested before starting to bake for Wednesday. I made banana raisin bread in mini muffin tins. Very nice!

This evening we actually had Family Time again... YIPPY! Hopefully we can do it next week...It is always so nice to catch up and pray together.

Intense Sunday!

I was up early and just stayed around at home as it was raining really hard!

The morning passed quite nicely... I was just praying as our pastor was going to make another announcement and I had no idea what he was going to say. Alan just asked me to not go long! After I finished speaking, our pastor came up. I won't comment on what he said... Please pray that there will be peace among the people after his announcement. I'm in a wait and see mode!

We were home by 7:30... 

I spoke on Love One Another. And please pray that the Holy Spirit will use the message to empower His people to love as the Holy Spirit has been poured into our lives. Only God can do the impossible.

I had prayer time with the sister at 9pm and got ready for bed.

It's been a very intense day for me...

Complex Meeting!

I was up early and ran my usual 10k. It hasn't gotten cooler... not yet!

I was home and took a shower and worked on my talk: Admonish One Another.

Then it was time to go downstairs for the complex meeting... but we didn't have enough people. So, I went door to door and asked people to sign a release form. They gave me the right to vote for them... ha, ha, ha... So, we didn't start the meeting until 10:15! But at least we had the meeting!

We didn't win anything for the raffle... I was hoping for the Carrefour coupons! ha, ha, ha... 

Isaiah took off for his co-workers camping trip! Alan and I had a free afternoon... how nice. I was going to go to Ms. Hsieh as my right shoulder is a bit off... but Ms. Hsieh is off on a trip this weekend!

It was nice to be home and prep and read and relax!
