I had an absolutely joyous "Christmas in Cambridge" as we welcomed a new little baby boy into the family early Christmas Day! Being surrounded by all of my babies and their babies is this mother's greatest joy. I was able to ignore the other hurts of the season for the most part (the nightmares remain and continue).
Grades - I've almost caught up with them! Even though I'm creating more assignments, I have a sense of keeping my head above water. Nice. And, I'm not truly sick - even though my throat is starting to bother me a bit and a cough is beginning to develop. Keep that hot tea coming!
And, omo, omo, omo! My Korean is getting better and better! Now, I just need some true study time! In addition, I watched a K-drama (twice) this past week. I am so "in love" with the main character. That's exactly the kind of love that I thought that I had with my husband. (Maybe that's why I'm a bit in a funk - but every time the actor smiles - he makes me smile). He's not Hyun Bin (my very fave) but he has adorable dimples and a smile that lights up a room. The character he portrays is a modern day perfect gentleman - who only has one love until the end of time. If you want romantic drama, then watch "Angel Eyes" with Lee Sang Yoon.
Oh, and don't forget to choose a new saint for the new year! Jen Fulwiler has that awesome Saint Randomizer - I tell you, it works for me every time! This year I got St. Henry II, whose feast day is July 15th. Yeah, I never heard of him either but, get this, he's the patron saint of Benedictine oblates! Who knew???
New Year's Resolutions: get this house sold, move south, become a better Benedictine, and learn that Korean! Have a wonderful and joyous new year!
