Alan and I went out to lunch... and we were soaking wet by the time we got the restaurant. The food was great... as I bought coupons...
In fact, Alan wanted me to start buying gifts for his two trips. One in November to Shanghai and one in December to Japan! So, I was cruising on the 'groupon' like web site... and of course, found all kinds of interesting restaurants to try... and combed through tons of gift possibilities! I am also looking for something for Children's Day...
In the morning I also talked with Annie, trying to firm up our plans for Chinese New Year!
So, this was what Alan and I decided.
We are going skiing from January 25th to the 31st! Just the four of us... plus church friends! If Annie and KR aren't coming on the 25th, I have a list of residential places recommended by the Elderly Care Center that Mom can stay at for those seven days! The rates are very reasonable. I will have to call each place and visit before I decide which one would be best!
If Annie and KR do come, they can stay at our house, use our car and maybe do a tour of Taiwan with Mom and Kurtis! Then when we get back on the 31st, we will do a few more fun things before they leave to go back to the State on February 1st, 2nd or 3rd. With their 'farm and pets', they can't be gone too long! Ten to 14 days would be the maximum! Annie is still 'spinning' so she can't do much. Skiing would not be fun for her!
Mom's elderly program starts back on the 4th of February, but school doesn't start until February 17th. Kurtis has class from February 3 to the 17th and he will get another break from February 18 to February 23rd! His Spring Quarter will be from February 24th to May 15th! By the end of that quarter he might come to a decision regarding coming back to Taipei in September or not to study at Soochow University and perhaps get his degree here! It sure is cheaper... and he'll get a good education!
Those are the things we decided... and we've asked our friends to book for Chinese New Year. Now we will have to start looking at summer!!!!
Seek Him First!
