It was difficult to see my mother in her situation, though. She fell and broke her hip the day after we arrived. Not good for someone who is 85 yrs old. I had to spend my time with her at the rehab facility. It was difficult to see how much she has changed from just a year ago. So thin and frail looking. It was very hard to leave this time because I wanted to stay longer with her. I still call every other day but it isn't the same....
I am such a bad blogger! I started this blog a month ago and haven't finished! I had such a hard time getting back onto Weebly's website. Bad internet? I don't know but I got it now. Also, I think that now that we use our laptop more to watch something at night (the TV in the new home is very old and small) I don't get a chance to blog on it like before. I will try to do better.
Life here is interesting! I love to sit and just look at the many faces and wonder about the people. Are they sad? happy? Do they have a family? The older ones have such a hard time taking care of their grandkids. It would wear me out! I love to give them a smile and see their faces light up like the sky on the 4th of July! Such a small thing, a smile, but it sure does a lot for the heart. So smile, smile, smile!
We will be heading to the airport on Saturday to welcome some friends who have not been here before. They are from America, living in China, and need to visit Hong Kong for their Visa requirements so they are stopping by for a visit. I have only met them once before back in the states so it will be nice to get to know them again. We plan on going to Hong Kong with them on Sunday to see some of our English speaking friends and do some shopping. I hope they enjoy our city.
Guess what!! We are planning to go to Korea in September! Our 40th anniversary is this year so we decided to go somewhere special. We have friends who recently moved to Korea so we shall go see them and explore the city of Seoul (Suh ol). I have already booked the flights...now I have to find a job to pay for them. I do get offers almost every week to teach. Recently I was asked to teach a 1 year old! Oh, my! I love babies so maybe I will try this. I think it will be mostly just play time.
So that was the good news....the bad news is that I had my mini iPad stolen.
A clerk told me my backpack was unzipped which told me something was wrong. I searched my bag...begging for it to be there but, alas, it was gone. Only 2 days back from America and it was gone. Yes, it is only a thing but it was special to me plus I use it so much here, it is like my right arm! The wonderful thing is, my husband had bought a new mini iPad before we left so he graciously gave it to me.
Thanks for reading my blog. Keep in touch!
Love and hugs....Cindy
