I Love PR Days!

I was up and it was fairly cool... at least it was cloudy. I ran my usual 8KM. And, thank you Annie for asking: I will run longer when the weather gets cooler... like in November! Now, I just try to run 50KM a week!

I was back and Isaiah and Alan took off... and I ate my breakfast... not as scrumptious as in Germany or Switzerland... 

I put a load of clothes in the washer and it was finished in 25 minutes. Most of it went into the dryer and the rest I hung up!

I plopped myself on the sofa and read... and dozed off...

At 12:30, I went and ran errands, which took longer than I expected! I wasn't back until 2pm. But I got everything done and bought!

I had lunch and ate two Milky Way bars for fun... 

The rest of the afternoon went by nicely... and at 5pm I headed out for tutoring. The weather was brilliant... At church, I cleaned up the games that we had left, put away things, including the coffee pot that I brought home to clean... and tutoring went well... of course, we went late again, so I didn't get home until almost 8PM.

I had time to put things away before prayer time started at 8:45. And then Family Time at 9:30.

I love PR Days!

Full Day of Tutoring...

I was up and yes, I went out... it was cool... sprinkling... and I didn't see anyone out there... not even a turtle... but about half way through, one of our House of Praise brothers was out there... so running with him helped me to run faster! YEAH!

On the way back up our little hill, I saw Isaiah and Alan riding down. They both left quite early... Alan went to the gym and Isaiah was heading to work!

I took a shower and ate a nice breakfast and then went down for the recycling... And another miracle: they were able to take everything! 

I was back up and prepped and headed out for tutoring. I was planning to run a few errands, but instead, I just came home for lunch and a nap! YEAH!

At 3, I headed out again... the hour flew by... This student is ready for first grade!

I was home by 5:30 and switched my stuff and headed out again... Tutoring at 6pm!

I was so glad to be home!

Prayer time at 8:45...

Bible Study & Tutoring...

I was up and went out... ran my 8KM... it was a light drizzle and wonderfully overcast! Lots of puddles and one turtle and lots of birds and snails... It was a delightful run!

After a shower, I had no time to rest as I had Bible study at 10am and I try to go early... I had to time it in order to avoid the downpour. 

We only had four people... and the two people who were going to get online didn't... One was busy with her baby and I'm not sure what happened to the other gal... 

I stayed at church as I had tutoring at 3:30. So, I went out and walked around and bought fruit and hot dog buns... YEAH! It wasn't raining too badly, so it was quite pleasant to walk around!

The tutoring went well... and I was home by 5:30! 

And... I had a free evening... Well... sort of... 

Prayer time at 8:45 and I was ready for bed... But I had to look over the prep for tomorrow's tutoring!

Another Productive Day!

I was up and even though it was not raining, it was still overcast! I ran 8KM.

After a shower, I got started with the tasks for today!

I wanted to look for some pictures that Abby wanted... which meant pulling out two entire shelves of photo albums!

I also had two boxes to mail and I had to go while it wasn't raining. One box went to Taichung and the other one to Germany. It took less than an hour!

I came home and made two phone calls: One to the AC guy for our house and one to the AC company for our old house! Two units at our new house are having problems and we just got them less than two years ago! Our old house needs a new window unit!

When that was all done, I had lunch... leftover ramen! So delicious... 

Then I prepped and took off to tutor... in the down pour!

I was home and got ready for my next tutoring session and left in the down pour!

Both tutoring sessions went well... and I was home by 6:45! I went late for both sessions!

I still had all the picture albums to sort and put back. Yes, I found the pictures that Abby wanted... 

I was so glad that I had 'nothing' this evening...

No Rain=Hot, Hot, Hot

I was up early and it was nice as I knew I had certain things to get done...

It was a very productive morning... and I made a cake in the rice cooker.

A thunderstorm started and I waited to leave the house... and God was good... It wasn't too bad when I left!

Someone set up the Love Cafe and I had to translate for the message and it was a great message!

The service was fantastic! I think next year each elder should share 8 times!!!!! 

I was home and the recycling was a mess... after getting that done, there was an entire box of new stuff to give away. I posted it on Buy Nothing and someone came to pick it up... YEAH!

Alan, Isaiah and I also finished packing up the box! Wow... what a labor of love!

I prayed with a sister at 9:30 and the day was done...

Tomorrow... rain is forecast... YIPPY!

Washer Picked Up, Box Packed... Time to Rest!

I was up early... but didn't go out for my run until 9am. And it was still so pleasant... And for the next 11 days, there is forecast for rain!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, Jesus!

I took a shower and called the appliance store... and talked to the owner about what is to be done for our old house... Window style AC unit... about 1000US$... Panasonic... 

I then put the compact washer downstairs and headed off to tutor! I always check the recycling before I go... 

The hour flew by... and we went longer... and I stopped at the supermarket to pick up a few things. 

Alan and Isaiah were up and eating lunch!

I joined them... it was nice to sit and chat...

At 2pm, the lady came to pick up the washer... and I finished packing the box that's going to be picked up on Monday for the Philippines! YIPPY!

Yes, I have continued to give or toss one thing a day... This is so great... I wonder why I didn't start sooner!

Isaiah took off to see Fenny and Alan and I had a nice afternoon and evening!

We had no appointments or events! We decided to go to PXMart to look for a remote and a hose... there were so many people... we didn't find what we wanted, but we bought lots of food goodies... so, when we got home, we had a nice dinner together.

God Worked!

It's raining... and will be raining for the next 11 days! YIPPY!

I was up early but I didn't go out for my run until about 8:45!

I ran my usual 8KM... slowly and carefully as I didn't want to slip!

After a shower, Alan and I took off to see a second hand stove that was for sale. And it was perfect... exactly what I had been praying for! And the price: 800US$! We bought it. And they delivered it this afternoon!

And right next to the store was a new steak place... so Alan and I had lunch there... they had a buffet bar for soup, bread, drinks and dessert! It was about 10US$ per person! 

We scootered home and Alan headed out to the old house after I went and got the money to pay for the stove. I went to tutor... and the two hours went by fairly quickly. 

I then scootered to this ramen place and a friend, Alan, Isaiah and Fenny all met up there... I treated everyone! It's a new kind of ramen shop where it's all self served and opens 24hours! Very interesting concept. And that was also about 10US$ per person!

Alan and I missed the prayer time at 8:45. We got home at 9:30.

The rain is still coming down hard!
