Congratulations on passing your French exam! I am so proud of you!

Merry Christmas to you and your family! May the new year bring much happiness your way!


Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

This afternoon, husband texted me, he wanted to know if I'm available tonight for dinner ? I'm surprised, it's Thursday, we both work day time and I have no idea why he invites me for dinner ? He then told me he is going to HK for business trip but my birthday is on Sunday

I didn't expect this and he brought me chocolate as gift smile

Although he will not be around for my birthday and new year holidays, I'm grateful for the dinner and gift and the grace from God !!

Kate and Job, thank you (heart)
husband is warming up very slowly and he still keeps distance, I can feel it; but I don't want to give him pressure.
He began to connect with his old friend and they chat more and more recently, he seems to regain some happiness from small things and has more affection towards people. Thank God for His hand never leave husband.

He just returned from H.K. and he shared fun things with me of his trip.

I'm quite curious about what's going in his mind right now and in past two years(2017/2018 he comes to apartment during weekend), but I didn't say a word, I don't think he is ready to talk nor could explain any to me.

Gerda, thank you and here's the chapter and verse I like to give to you before new year -
A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year. Deuteronomy 11:12

Happy new year, sister !!

Hi Everyone, in two days we are going to celebrate Chinese New Year. Wish all of you and your family a happy and prosperous new year of brown pig (yes the Chinese zodiac)

Husband's been busy for three months, we met few times in past three months. Had lunch or dinner together mostly. It's our traditional that we get gifts and red envelope for elder people. I went to my mother in law' place and of course my mother's as well, generally I've had plenty chores to do before holiday.

It's Saturday, I believe my husband had finished all his jobs and be ready for new year holiday, so I texted him and wonder he would have dinner with me ? He replied - he prefer to be alone this weekend, and he will see me next Monday( New Year's Eve)

I answered 'ok'

I've walked this far, he had not rejected me for a while. I don't feel good.... Specially before holiday I guess.

I hope he is not falling back into the tunnel too much and I'm keeping my patience to the maximum !

Happy Chinese New Year dear friends smile

Happy Chinese New Year to you as well.

Your h may be just tired and needs a bit of "me" time to recharge his battery. I wouldn't be too concerned about it. They do tend to back off just a bit periodically.

Continue as you have been and allow him to catch up w/you and your progress!
