Studied Spanish this morning. Listened to Cadena SER which is the national radio station in Spain for an hour. My comprehension continues to escalate.

I build vocabulary by writing down words I don’t know.

This morning Brexit was big in the news.
My usual grammar study is with Duolingo.

I used to be very systematic with it. Now I bounce around a little bit more by subject. Maybe present perfect, perhaps subjunctive, or past tense.
Keep pushing forward.

I had lunch with my good friend Carl Barrington and his mom Joyce today.

Went by Lowes to pick up a new toilet seat for him. Fills me with joy to help people, especially dear friends.

Went to the mission after our time together. I usually send Ashley a map to give her a feeling for when I’ll arrive.

I listened to more Spanish radio on the way over and on the way home after the mission.

They were using this word a lot in regards to Brexit AND Spanish soccer.
Went by FBC Doraville on the way to the mission to check the mail and to tell Renee, our church secretary, that I was sorry her mama had died.

The mission has been closed this week because of cold, rainy weather. No kids are allowed out in it by their moms.
Ashley put a sign by the door, plus they see my car.

LOVE my girls!


We had a couple of kids brave the cold. Glad we were there to help.

We went to Taco Veloz for supper. Nice to spend a little extra time with them.
Stitched up a weak spot in one of my gloves when I got home. Proactive!

Although I am currently on a Facebook Fast, I decided to at least post my two podcasts each week. I don’t read anything, just post. One on Tuesday, one on Fridays. Or the night before!

Admin duties now. Will study more and listen more.
