Happy new year, my friend. It’s 1/1/22. What a great day to start the new year. This is picture of my Santa suit that I washed yesterday. It’s packed away until the end of 2022. Did you have a great New Year’s Eve?
@Cryptopsycho21 in January 2022
Here is the first lunch of the new year. Cabbage, eggs, tofu, and fish. Have a healthy new year my friend.
Now we’re playing baseball. Perfect day. Not too hot or cool. Come on over.
Here’sa honey bee that was on our car. It didn’t fly away when I approached it. Maybe it’s taking a break.
Lots of interesting bugs out today. This moth was a tricky illusion. At first from my original Angel, it looked like two. Only from directly above does it look clear.
My son and I played dodgeball and basketball with a very light ball. It was so light that it was difficult to catch. It was funny. Kind of silly. Did you do anything silly today?
This is the duck that my sister-in-law cooked food a very long time yesterday. The meat is so soft and delicious. The meat drops right off of the bones. Anyone want sun. ?
Here’s tonight’s dinner. My sister-in-law catered for a meeting and brought home the leftovers. So we have duck, bamboo shoots, cabbage, yesterday chicken soup, pickled and spicy vegetables, and noodles or rice. Your all welcome to enjoy the meal with us.
Good dessert, we have Buddha head fruit or custard apple. It’sa very sweet fruit that is too sweet for me, but my in-laws enjoy it. I’ll pass and have some green tea:). Did you finish your meal?
Today’s verse is about new beginnings! God always creates new opportunities for us. Never get stuck in the past. Take the new year as a chance to leave the old behind, forgive and forget, and look forward. Live in the now! See what God is doing in your life and give thanks and praise!
I’m getting ready for bed. I don’t think I can fall asleep soon, but I want the warmth and dark to pray and think about things I need to accomplish. The silence of night always clears my mind. Have a great sleep my friend and find peace in the Lord. Sweet dreams.
It’s one of those wonderful winter days where it’s perfect in the sun and cool without it. Then when the sun goes down the temperature really drops. I love this kind of weather because it’s so nice to get in bed at night. How about you?
My son and I are playing animal crossing monopoly. This monopoly is interesting because you don’t pay anything for landing on others property. In fact you get something and they get something to. It’s a short game too. Kind of nice. A Fun and friendly monopoly.
Lunch time. Nobody want to cook, so instant noodles. Delish, but not healthy, so I usually don’t eat it. Want some?
We finished playing monopoly and now my son is tired. So he’s napping while wife and her sister are watching soaps. Me? I’m talking to you;)
Today’s verse is very appropriate for the new year. Beginning new thing it going through old. It matters not to the Lord. He is the light on the path guiding us. Going through a difficult time? He’s with you. Ask for guidance and wisdom and you will recover it. Amen.
My son just got up and e played basketball and dodge ball. Now we’re taking a break and playing a dice games called zombie dice. It’s a cute game of brains, head shots, and people running away. It’sa cute game.
Here’s tonight’s meal. Duck, beef stew, mixed vegetables, omelette, greens, cabbage, and tangerine for dessert. Anyone interested?
Now we have this ginger and date hot soup to help us stay warm. It’s spicy. Want to warm up?
This is a link to a free podcast called “Bible in a year”. I started it with my mother, I thought some of you might be interested. The CB link goes to the website and then you can choose how to listen to it. It’s an interesting way of going through the Bible as they divide it into 12 sections. https://ascensionpress.com/pages/biy-registration
My nephew is making some breaded pork stripes. He owns his own pub and experimented with new food items. We’re the test subjects.
Just got to the office. Did you have a nice, restful weekend? I'm getting ready for class and printing up tests for the day. What are you doing?
Class time. The students have to say the words that they were supposed to memorize. It’s Sunnys turn. She’s doing great.
Today’s verse gives us peace when we need it the most. When we’re anxious, give it to God. What a blessing. Amen.
Now we are having a practice test. I let them use their books if they forgot. I rather have them find the answer than cheat or guess the wrong answer. However, for the real test… no books.
Now we are playing a question and answer game about animals. They play Rock Paper Scissors to see who asks the question. The other has to answer. Everyone wins. No losers.
Now we are playing teacher says. It’s a cute game to use up energy and get students to listen.
This is Griffin. He had a reading test. He reads week, but his book is in terrible condition. I wonder if it can make it to the end of the semester.
This is little Joseph. His test wasn’t good so he has to stay after and retest. With a little extra attention he’ll do fine;)
Here’sa flower I passed this morning as my wife and I went for our morning stroll. It’s quite small, yet the color pattern is quite pleasing to the eye.
It’s been a long day. No break Monday. Looks of students to help, even during my little breaks. It’s been rewarding though. Get some rest and have a good night sleep. Sweet dreams.
Good morning. Hope you had a great night sleep. My wife and I are going to hang up the clothes and then go for a walk in the country. Hopefully you are having a great day.
Today’s verse is a reminder of what is important in life. We are thought that money is everything. But it is nothing compared to the kingdom of heaven.
After walking with my wife this morning, we prepared the students snacks. Then we had a school meeting. Next week I’ll go back and visit my mother, so we need to rearrange classes. A lot of work but it will be nice to see her.
Here are some of my neighbors beautiful flowers. It’s between class time, so I took a minute to go outside and admire his plants. Medicine for the soul
Today when I was walking with my wife, I didn’t see and flowers that jumped out at me. So this is a picture of my neighbors house. It’s his original family house that he repaired and fixed up. Since he is retired, he will sing songs, garden, and fix up the house even more. It’sa wonderful old house inside and out.
Today Costco had a special on their pizza. So we spent a little extra and bought it for the students snack. They were very surprised and happy. Hopefully it will encourage them to study more. This cutie is Doreen.
Today’s verse is one of relief. Give the Lord your worries. He will sustain you. Give thanks and praise
Nothing much to talk about today. It’sa little rainy so we didn’t go on a walk. The rain also affected the students mood. So just a gloomy day. I’ll pray about it and I’m sure it’ll get better.
This is Sasa. She scored 0 on her words test. So I am helping her after class. She is a little special and had trouble connecting the sounds to the writing. She’ll do fine. Just a little slow in the beginning.
Today’s verse is a reminder to me. The Lord is everywhere and I’m everything we do. So let’s glorify him in our actions and deeds
Now we are warming up with the alphabet flash cards. The students have to recite them and then say them from memory. They are doing a great job;)
Now it’s recess the students are enjoying their new play equipment. It’s nexo to watch kids play. I hope covid doesn’t return here.
Now we are playing a Game to practice the animal words and questions and answers. It’s based on Rock Paper Scissors. Winner asks loser. But in the end everyone wins.
I just reached 2800. I thank all of you for caring. Most people don’t. That’s what I love about this platform. It’s what I love about it.
We are on another break time. I sent the students out to use up their energy. Students never cease to amaze me with their energy.
Now we are having an open book pretest. The students can help one another. I feel that this is a good chance for volunteer learning
It’s break time. So I’m letting the students play UNO. It’s really the perfect game for everyone. Have you played it?
Now we are reading today’s story. It’s about a trip to the zoo. It’sa little boring for kids this age. But it’s good practice. Then we can discuss going to the zoo.
Well, it’s been a busy day. Hope you all finished what you set out to do. Get some rest and some sweet dreams see you tomorrow.
Good morning. It’s chilly this morning but coat and windy. So it kind of feels good. My wife and I are hoping for our morning walk. Want to come?
Today verse is a great gift. We have eternal life through Jesus. Let’s share this with others for the glory of God
Now we’re being class. All the students have to stand and recite the memorized words. Just recently they started to go a good job!
Now my students are having a test. I’m confident they will do well. I think only one of two of them might have difficulty.
My Student Jimmy good in trouble for being too crazy in class. I don’t get angry or yell. I just make them do push ups. It’sa good way to discipline students and burn up some extra energy;)
Now we are playing a book game. Rock paper scissor and the winner asks the a question. The losers have to answer it. It’s more fun than reading and writing.
Now it’s my break time but one of my students needs a little extra help. His name is Benny. A very cute name for a cute boy;)
Just got home and took a shower. I’m going to watch tv with my son and maybe play a game or two. So I’ll say good night now. Get some rest and have sweet dreams. Good night CB
Good morning! I have early classes today, so I got up early. I’m going to walk to the school- about 45 minutes. Hopefully I’ll see something beautiful to skate with you. Have a great and positive morning.
Today verse is an example of how love we are. Jesus is always with us. He accompanies through thick and thin. So remember, we go to church to worship and praise together, but even out of church, he is with us. So we should act accordingly and carefully consider our actions.
Today we are cleaning the school after class. Chinese New Year is coming and I will be in the US visiting my mother. So I’m helping my wife do a very extensive cleaning of the school. Our neighbors dropped off their kids. So here’s is a picture of them playing as we run around cleaning things;). They are so cool.
I forgot to attach the photo to the last post. Here are the neighbors kids playing as we clown for converse new year
As my wife and I run around cleaning everything, here are some students finishing up their test. This is a math test. And this is a special class for students that want to learn. So we don’t charge and the teachers make time to help.
My son wants to play dodge ball, so he’s drawing the line with chalk.
Here’sa beautiful flower that we saw in the walk to work. I love the vibrant colors. It gives me peace. I hope find it and get the same feeling
I found this gnarly old tree this morning. I think it’s cool interesting with the roots extending from the trunk.
Looks delicious. Is it a soup
I dislike cleaning, but I know it has to be done. So we took so m our all the Windows and washed them, let them dry, and then put them back. Took about 4 hours to do all the Windows.
A friend sent me this picture. I t think it’s cute. What do you think
Tonight we are having hot pot. It has cabbage, mini sausages, tofu, tofu skin, meat balls, crab, and taro. Anyone want to join , it’s perfect for a cold day.
For dessert, we have cherries!! A little expensive, but they are so sweet. Come on over and have some;)
It’s been a long day. I’m getting ready for bed. Good night dear friend. Have sweet dreams:)
I’ll be in the US for Chinese New Year, so I’m helping my wife clean everything early. This is my only day off. But I want to get it done early so my wife doesn’t have to do it alone.
Now it’s break time from cleaning Windows, so we are helping my mother-in-law clean and cut up radishes. Yum. The water is sooooooooo cold.
Now lunch break is over and we are back washing Windows. Most of the Windows e we take out, but they can be washed with a pressure sprayer. Makes this post a lot easier.
Here’s the finish product. We washed and cut up a lot of radishes. Now we put them in the sun to dry. Later, we pickle them ;)
Looks great. I would love to go there and drink coffee.
I had a lot of trouble attacking this photo. It took three times.
Finally it worked. Here are the radishes!!! If you didn’t read my other posts I tried four times and the pictures wouldn’t attack. :0. I hope it’s there.
Good morning, I hope you had a restful sleep. I had trouble sleeping. I’m traveling tomorrow, so I’m preparing a lot of documentation for the trip and I’ll get a covid test.
Today verse is a reminder that we must be humble and meek. This doesn’t mean weak. It means that our power is control.
Now I’m waiting for my PCR test. It’s expensive. I guess the hospitals and pharma are making a lot. My plane leaves in 24 hours. Wish me luck
This is a creepy picture of where I got my PCR covid test. The hand extends out of the window and put a stick in your nose. I can’t wait for this to be over….;)
Here we are playing a have called teacher says. The students have to do actions that the teacher tells them to do. It’s a game to develop listening skill and have fun.
After work I walked home and thought this temple looks beautiful with the red lanterns. The Chinese New Year is coming.
Another long day. Today was longer than usual. I had a PRC covid test and I packed everything for my flight tomorrow morning. Wish me luck;).
Now I’m on the way to the airport. It’s sad that my wife and my son won’t come, but with the new covi, it’s safer
I got to the airport early, but I wasn’t expecting it this vacant. I’m all alone except for the airport employees. Kind of creepy.
I’m concerned about covid, but these two travelers are really concerned. How will they go to the bathroom?
The duty free in an airport always looks so beautiful… alas, I don’t waste money and the prices are high.
I wonder if anyone cares it’s hard to be addicted to alcohol and cigarettes and walk through an airport. It looks so good, but I have to say no. I’m praying as I walk. :)
Today I am traveling and the verse of the day is perfect-as it is every day. It’s a very important verse at the time Jesus walked the earth and now on our modern world. Don’t give into showing devotion. Don’t look pious and righteous like the Pharisees Ann’s other high priests. Be authentic in your love for Christ! Do what you mean and show who you are. Amen.
My hats off to Taiwan international airport. They remodeled a lot. This even has has a surfing game for people waiting. How cool is that.
Here’s a Taroko cannon shit in the airport. Such a Cool memorial too the landmark.
Here’s another area in the airport. I talk like this one I think I’ll sit here and check on my noisecash friends
I’m waiting for my next flight at the Korean international airport. This is my snack. Pretty nice food for an airport.
I’m at the Korean international airport and the weather is amazing. It’s so clear. This is a very nice and clean place. Much better than when I visited in the 1990s.
Good evening from the Korean international airport. A wonderful sun set.
This was my last flight. So few people. I feel lucky. If the plane was full, it would be Easier to get covid.
Today verse is a great reminder of how natural our love of the Lord Congress out in everything that we do. Let our actions be righteous and guided by the Spirit.
I finally made it home. All the flights and transfers together, it took over 36 hours. Now I’m at my moms house with my niece.
Wow. This is the first time I took care of my nieces baby and wow is she busy. I don’t remember my kids having so much energy. Lots of changing diapers too.
Here’s Miss Curly, or family’s guard dog;). . She hasn’t seen me a long time, but she still remembers be. It’s been years since I’ve been home. Such a smart pup.
My daughter wanted to cook salmon for dinner. I was surprised because she never cooked seafood for me before. It’s nice to be home.
It’s my first day home in for years. Still having trouble adjusting to the time. I hope to get some sleep eventually. Maybe tomorrow I can do more on noisecash. Good night friend. God bless.
Time to help my mother babysit. This is a very happy time because I haven’t been home in for years. So I’m fixing up the house and doing everything I can to help out before I go back. How’s your day going?
Well it’s almost five, so I’ll be going to meet my daughter. Say goodbye to the baby. I’ll see her tomorrow.
Today’s verse is a reminder- the world and everything in creation belongs to the Lord. And we should be mindful when our actions are destructive against it.
Now it’s dinner time. Have you eaten? My kids make chicken soba ( cold noodles). I think they did a great job. Enjoy your lunch.
Now it’s lego time with my oldest. We are making a bonzai tree. Wish us luck
We finished the bonsai lego tree. It was really strange. There were so many similar pieces that it was almost like puzzle together as well. Very interesting and an enjoyable time with my son.
Good night dear friend. We’ve been busy helping my mother babysit and cook. We also took down her Christmas tree. Then my kids and I played legos and cards. Getting ready for bed. Good night dear friend. Have some sweet dreams.
We took my great niece shopping. We just got back and now she’s playing in the flower with her toy. It’s nice because she slept in the car and now she’s in a good mood.
I just put the baby to sleep. But I’m afraid to put her down because she’ll wake up. I think I’ll just continue to hold her. What do you think?
@buffalo posted a Halloween picture and suggested posting Halloween pictures in January to keep things interesting. So why not. Here’s mine.
Here’s a robot that we made last night sitting in a Star Bucks sofa we made out of a cup hot sleeve. Pretty creative.
My kids wanted to make hamburgers. It’sa monster burger. The paddy out thick, but juice. The egg is perfect. It had onions, lettuce, tomato, ketchup, and ranch. Served on a toasted bun. I think they did really well. It’s a big mess burger. Anyone want one?
Today’s verse is one of rebirth. When we truly find Christ, the old us is replaced by a new us. We are transformed and become the best that we can be
Here’s a car we saw at the mall. It’s a new electric car with three wheels. Pretty small, cool looking, but wouldn’t fair well in an accident.
Had a small family reunion today. No reunion is complete without my mother’s German chocolate cake. The first time I’ve been home in 3 years, so my first piece of her cake. So happy. Anyone want one?
Today’s verse is one of empowerment. God didn’t give us a spirit of fear. Don’t be worried or insecure when doing the Lords work. He gave us the power to overcome anything. Especially when love is involved.
We’re going out for Japanese food. This is the appetizer- calamari. The sauce is sweet and spicy. Anyone want to try some?
I took my family out for dinner at a Japanese restaurant. I posted the appetizer earlier. Here’s the main dish. It’s came the power bento. Can you help me eat some?
This is my last hand before bed. We played gin rummy for about an hour. I’m trying to adjust to the time difference, so my bed time is scheduled as is my wake up times. Do you have any suggestions for getting over jet lag?
Good morning everyone. Just got back from sunny service. Great mass. Hope you’re day is going well, my friend. God bless
Today verse is one of thanks. The Lord made us carefully and lovingly. Give thanks and praise. Happy Sunday.
Here’s the card game for this evening. We’re playing gin rummy and a game called- the straw that broke the camel’s back. It’s a cute game where you pile up things and a camel- value of cards and can’t go over. It’s fun. How was your day? It’s been a blessed Sunday.
Here’s today’s drink. It’s not alcoholic. A very nice coder. The Bottle was the selling point.
This was the sky last night as I drove my son to work. It was an incredible bright red. I wish I have time to go somewhere away from the traffic lights. Then the picture would have been much better.
Today verse is one of strength. As followers of Christ, we get stronger through learning about Him.
Good morning my friend. This is the first night since I’ve been back that I slept well. This is little Bodhi. My niece. We are baby sitting today. Wish me luck;)
This is last nights sunset. It looks like the sky is on fire. I didn’t edit the picture. What do you think?
Today’s been a busy day. Mostly babysitting and doing. We went to the shopping center, Costco, and discount grocery store. Good a lot, but only spend $70. Over all, a good day. How’s your day.
Today verse is beautiful and brings glory to the holy Trinity. We are reminded that baptism is with water but really the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
My kids cooked dinner for me. They fixed beef, cabbage, and kimchi. The Korean sauce is really spicy. Anyone want some??
What’s up big sis?
This is my meal. My kids wanted to prepare a meal for dinner. So they cooked up cabbage, steak, and sauce. It’s very nice. Anyone want some.
Today we went to an Egyptian coffee shop. The café is made out of an old double decker bus. Very colorful and interesting.
This is what we were served in the Egyptian coffee shop. Very beautiful and absolutely delish.
This verse is truly beautiful. We are reminded of God never ending love, and how he gives us the power to fight temptation.
Today’s verse reminds us how important it is to be merciful.
Here’s my daughter with her baby cousin. That baby get all the attention in the family because she’s the only baby in that generation so far. There never a shortage of people wanting to hold her.
Now I’m at the airport leaving my mothers and returning to Taiwan. Lots of lines and security. I have a 5:40 am flight. Then I have two more connections. Wish I could say it was fun.
What a long line to get through security at the airport. I remember when it was a lot easier and quicker. Hope I can make my flight
All day today my flights have been screwed up. But I take relief because by the Lord it’s my Shepard. I trust in Him
I’m in the Korea airport. It’s 5:00 am here. Nothing is open, so I’m walking around. This is the kids area in the airport. I think it’s great for k kids
Korea had such a beautiful airport. It will be much nicer when everything opens. It’s still too early.
I found this robot in the Korean airport. It’s very interesting. You show it you’re boarding pass and put your bag on it. Then it will lead you to your departure gate! So cool!
Here is my breakfast in the Korean international airport. It’s kimchi and rice. Very nice.
Today’s verse is a reminder that our hearts should be with Christ.
My first meal in quarantine. Anyone want to share some pizza and cola? I tested negative for covid, but all people entering Taiwan have a mandatory 14 day quarantine. This is day one. How’s your day?
Here’s a picture I’d like to share with all my noisy friends. This is my niece and she’s having a milk bath. I gave her that little yellow rubber ducky. Isn’t she cute ;)
Today’s verse is perfect as I’m quarantined for two weeks. There is nothing to do in this tiny hotel room. However, I have time to improve my relationship with the Lord and realize how misleading the world is.
I wish I had something to show you, but the food in the quarantine hotel isn’t very impressive. Thank you for posting all your delish for my friend
It gets boring in a quarantine hotel. At least, I have a class that I can teach. So I get to see my students. A sky suggestions to kill time?
I’m trying this game. You can play for NFTs. If you want to try, here’s the link. https://downloadcos.com/Christopher/5030
Oh how is it that the Lord can create such a sun set every day? What a wonderful world we live in
Today’s verse tells us where our acorns and words come. Remember that our hearts show the world what we are. Keep your heart with the Lord so our actions and words will be from the Lord
