My students invited me for lunch. It has been really nice. One couple made lunch for me. Another student today took me out to lunch. They all have been nice. I also met with my former college alumnus and went to lunch. All these lunches have kept me going. Tomorrow is Christmas here, and I will be working. Then, on New Year's Eve and Day I will be all alone again. I have a man visiting me all the way from the states. I am excited! But, the holidays will be lonely. I don't worry about it too much. I am happy with what I have. Of course, I wished I could have spent the holidays with my family. But, my mother is coming soon, hopefully, in January. I may be alone on the holidays but there are times when I have time with others and enjoy life. All in all, I am happy with what I have. Merry Xmas!!
