Rainy Day Run!

I was up and the sound of rain was just so delightful... the skies were dark... 

Of course, I went out in the rain... and no one was around... just the earth worms and birds... 

After a shower, I put in a load of laundry and when that was done and hung up, I went to do my errands. The rain had stopped. I paid a bill, went to a friend's house and fixed their shower head, and went to our old house to switch an iron to give away!

Alan went to play a little tennis.

This afternoon, we got together with friends... I had ordered pizza and made a salad... we also went to CoCo to buy the drinks.

And even though it was a holiday, we had prayer time at 8:45.

The day flew by... 

Abby and I are still working on going for a long run... tomorrow... maybe... The kids were out late... or rather, early morning... they slept the whole day... and only got up when we were going to go out to meet up with friends! I was ready for a long run... but she didn't get up until 1pm... and was just lazy.

Alan's Day Off!

I was up early and was hoping that Abby would go for a long run... but that didn't happen. She had promised a gal from church to attend the stretching class. I went and ran my 10K. It got hot! 

I was home and had time to just hang out and read... I set the iRobot going and sat on the sofa. I'm thinking about what to share on April 26th! God was filling my mind with ideas.

Abby was to come home for lunch but the gal invited her out. So... from lunch she went straight to meet up with another church family... and I had to get Alan to ride over to switch scooter with her. When Alan came back, I was off... I wanted to go pay a few bills and I had a nice oil massage at 3pm.

I got home at 5pm and we had a dinner date with friends at 5:30. But with only my small scooter, Alan rode down and I walked. ha, ha, ha... 

We were back home by 8:15 and I had prayer time at 8:45.

The kids were out with their 'cousins'... Rex and Peilun's kids who are like their cousins as they hung out quite a bit when they were young! It's Diean's birthday and they booked dinner at a fancy hotel up on YangMing Mountain! That's why Abby needed Alan's scooter... it has more power!

The day flew by... I think Abby will have to go for a long run tomorrow... Oh... in case you didn't know. She signed up for a full marathon and while she is home, she had asked to go for a long run as part of her training... That's why I keep asking her about going... She has not gone running until she got back... I guess she can just walk it... or forfeit... that's a waste of money... So... we shall see...

Spring Break Wednesday

I was up early and went out, thinking the day might turn hot... and it didn't... in fact, it stayed nice and cool with a slight drizzle!

I was home and after a quick shower, I was looking over what I needed to do for the day.

Abby needed to go and get US$ cash to bring back... I wanted to get two I-cash cards replaced... 

Anyhow... the day flew by... 

I had tutoring at 6pm and then prayer time at 8:45... 

I had time for a nap and time to read... but overall... the day flew by... Like Mom Bea writes... I had a busy day... but I can't say why it was so busy...

Great Study and A Lot More Restful!

I was up super early as Abby needed to go for a long run before the heat... but she couldn't get up. So, I went for my usual 10K and saw my 'usual' early morning running friends... it was very nice! I think I will have to start to do this as the temp is getting warmer and warmer...

I was home and had time to get things together for my study. After my shower, I left to head to church early to make these grilled sandwiches and to set up!

We had six gals and the discussion again was insightful. Abby joined us too... so... a total of seven gals! We all hung around to chat and I didn't get home until 2pm. 

Alan and Abby headed out to the swimming pool and I headed to the sofa... I took a two-hour nap! 

My evening tutoring cancelled. We had already planned on Family Time at 9pm, so we just decided to have dinner out and then played Rummy Q and Alan and I had prayer time with the church and then we had share and prayer time together as a family. Next week will be our last time before Abby heads back! WAHHHHHH...

Tomorrow is April Fool's Day but it's also the start of the spring break... YIPPY! 

Isaiah doesn't have vacation until Friday... it's a four day weekend for everyone! Fenny headed to Melbourne, so Isaiah will be hanging out with us more... which works out perfectly since Abby is taking off next week! God worked this out...

Feeling Tired...

I wanted to get up early but I didn't... I wanted to sleep all day... but I didn't!

I went for my run at 9am and it was hot... I got back and started to cook the chunk of meat in the crock pot and took a shower, after trimming my hair! YEAH!

Abby went for a swim and workout... and I ate lunch and took a nap!

Tutoring was at 2pm and that went long. I hadn't see her for quite a while. I got back a minute before Abby...

We both had a salad for dinner... it was an early dinner. The meat turned out beautifully!

Abby and Isaiah went out to the night market with their 'cousins'... Rex's kids who are here. They are like cousins... they are going to hang out as much as possible this week!

Alan and I had a nice evening at home. I had Bible study at 9pm and when that was finished, I was ready to head to bed.

Tomorrow... I am going to attempt to get up early so that Abby and I can finally go for a long run!

We shall see...

I do have my morning Bible study at 10am tomorrow. I'm making 'spam and cheese' sandwiches!

Palm Sunday

I was up early and it was nice and cool...

I went out to run a few errands...I went to get fruit and our YoYo cards updated... 

I was back and decided to take a nap... My tummy was weird... Three pieces of toast did the job!

We left for church and arrived at 3pm to set everything up! I was also in charge of the testimonies. Isaiah and I translated! The service was great!

We got home and I had prayer time at 9pm!

"Free" Saturday

I was up and went out for my 10K, praising God that the weather is cooler... 

After I got back, I was off... I wanted to go and pick up the pictures from two places and then go and get veggies and ear drops for Abby. It was quite a lot to get done in a short amount of time!

Abby, Isaiah and Alan went to play tennis and then Abby went for a swim!

I was back and had a salad for lunch with shredded chicken. So delicious.

Then Alan and I went to pick up plants from a lady who is helping her mom downsize as her step father passed away... She has a lot to get done! 

We got back and unloaded the plants for our complex. They were perfect!

I then hung our family picture for this year as I had a perfect frame for it... and a perfect place. 

By 4pm, they took off for the basketball game and I wanted to rest... yeah! I had to put together the simple PPT for Testimony Sunday, which I'm leading. I wanted to go run three more errands, but I was too tired. I will do those tomorrow! 

The Young Adults were going hiking, but Isaiah decided to cancel! I am so glad as that will give me a free morning!
