Back to normal...

bye for now

What is it with going back to work/study after a long vacation? The two-week Christmas break is tough to get over for me. I've been spoiled silly with the home-cooked meals, fun trips to the beach, sightseeing, attending fiestas, driving around town, sleeping as long as I wanted, joking around with the kids etc.

Not looking forward to leaving all that but real life beckons. Will hop a flight to Manila this afternoon... I have to be back to work at the hospital tomorrow. I believe I'm not alone in feeling a little disjointed by the long vacation but I'm grateful to have spent quality time with the family...see you next Christmas guys!

Happy New Year!

A Happy New Year to everyone... The past year has been a challenge but a new year brings new hope for the future. 2010 will bring trials I'm sure, but God is always good and will give us sufficient grace for every problem we may encounter.

New Year's day is also my mother's birthday so it's always been extra-special for us...Happy 71st Birthday, Ma! I pray God would grant you more joyful years and continuous good health...
