Life has been flying by here at Corgi Hollows.
My new job takes up most of my mental energy, and I’m still striving for balance with my two paying jobs, my school, and my new position. I’ve been subbing like a crazy woman. It seems I am in high demand. Since I enjoy it I find it hard to say no to some of my favorite teachers.
My Chinese language learning is soaring, with a new language partner in China. We have met in person, many years ago, but we are about to embark on a real partnership—with her learning English and me learning Chinese. My Chinese “son” is her real son, and so we are now his “moms.” 🙂 So cute.
It seems that in a heartbeat everything can change, a chance comment, encounter or thought can change the course of life. I feel this way lately.
I’ve got a lot of reading to do. A lot.
This winter has been super-cold, too. I don’t remember a recent winter where we woke up to below zero so many mornings!
It makes me extremely grateful that God has provided a working furnace, cozy fireplaces, and cars that start up quickly.
What else am I grateful for? A good friend that has been helping me with the persistent problem in my basement: dampness. He will soon have repaired all the damage. I am thrilled. I’m hoping that the entire construction project can be all finished SOON.
I’m grateful for good friends who step in and help us troubleshoot our mechanical issues! Thanks, Dave!!!
So with this new course in life I’ve pared down my social media, too. Some of you may have missed Corgi Hollows on Facebook. I don’t miss it as much as I thought I would.
I’ll write here to keep in touch.
