The day yesterday was nice but I was super tired from 4.5 hours of sleep the night before. I slept tonight for another 4 hours. Hubby was teaching in the morning and I went for three walks with Billy. The park was sunny and so was the sky. We expect snow tomorrow. 

This Lunar New Year starts with a lot of challenges for my loved ones. A good artist friend in taiwan has his wife deliver their child today and they have been living in cheap sex motels and air n' b since October. My dad is losing a lot of weight (too much says my mom). My mom in law is dying and so my father in law and everyone is very sad. My other friend has legal problems with bad cops who actually are the ones who assaulted her but they are charging her despite having maimed her for life (she cant walk anymore). I have not heard from my friend Rosie who was in hospital in December for some serious intestinal issues and heart problems. Last I heard from her she was out, and back living in her women shelter which she likes.

Life is challenging. I am so happy I am at home, comfortable, and healthy, and can pray  for and chat with everyone.  We are at a very blessed time in our lives, hubby and I and the animals.
