In a matter of days, this house will be full of people. There will be the pitter patter of feet, chatter, laughter, arguments, beddings and food everywhere, all the vital signs life and living. Wow. It has been a long time since we have so many folks under our roof. It will be crowded. Driving out the chill of winter and breathing warmth. We won't need to turn the heater up so high - the qi of so many in a confined space will be sufficient to rob winter of its cold within these four walls.
Then long drive south. Snow and trips and falls on slippery slopes. Long drive back. Hanging around. Trips to the city. Golden Gate Bridge. Etc.
A few more days.
Winter concert at middle school is over - reminded me of the first time when BYY was here with Wen Hui and they were both snoozing away from jet lag. Tomorrow is the boy's recital. Then a trip to Tracy with the Lai's to meet some Malaysian friends. I messed up. Accepting dinner at the Tan's when I had accepted the trip to Tracy long ago. As LK said, "torn between two lovers". She's funny. I really really like our friends here. Could have ask for better friends so far from home. We will spend new year's eve at the Tan's. UJ and F will find them fun.
