Roll Call

I'm kind of curious.  How many people check into this site just to read what is going on?  Comment on this thread just to let us know that you are alive and kicking.  If you feel like it give us a brief overview as to what is going on in your life.

Still alive.  Still waiting for my info from immigration - they were supposed to give it to me within 120 days.  It has been 6 months and still nothing.  I just returned from a 2 week vacation with my lovely wife.

I'm still here......

Getting ready for my "official" retirement in June 2013. Lots of loose ends to clear up Business-wise, lots of paperwork to complete for numerous Govt. Departments.

Being more and more a "house husband" and supporting my dear Wife who is working all hours teaching Chinese to second and third generation Chinese/Aussie children who's parents want them to re-learn Chinese reading, writing and speaking.

Might get time for a holiday somewhere nice in the New Year.....if only Ming would stop working for a week or so.....sigh :( :(

I try to check here everyday if possible.

Just started to make copy's of household papers, Insurance, etc tonight. Linda and Ziwei are in the 90 day peroid now to apply for permanent Green Card. I want to get that done soon as I can.

Everything going good, Linda does not have driver license yet but drove a comdine in the beans last two harvests. Ziwei has been on the honor roll every grading peroid since she has been here. Just got her report card all A's and one A-. Wish I could say reminds me of me but I wont.

I usually check this site everyday to see what is going on. I stay pretty busy with my other sites and my work, so I do not post here very often anymore unless someone needs some assistance or an opinion!

Still check in to see what is going on.  Xia and Laura are both great, one getting teeth (got 2 middle bottom ones) and the other is trying to study the road rules book so she can get her licence.  Just got an email from CHNLOVE saying someone I do not know has replied to an email that I have never sent.  Funny seeing I have not been on there for probably 2 years or more now since Xia and I first met and I do not have any credits there either.

I'm here, listening, reading.  :)

I prepare to write report about my trip in Qingdao. It could be done during our long weekend because of Halloween breaks.

Hi I check in here form time to time, sometimes week betweens.

After a few trips to China, I was lucky to find my loved one just 10 minutes drive from home. A beautiful vietnamese woman who had lived i Norway for more than 25 years, speak the language and hold a Norwegian passport. Saved me a lot of trouble ;) Now we are selling our places to move into a appartment which we bougth "off plan", appartment are planned finished within the next 12 months. Before that we will get married in may. Her daugther is moving to uni abroad and my nephew, which I have lived with me for the last 12 years. Is also moving out to go to higher education.
Life are so different from the first visit to Cina som 5-6 years ago, I also learned a lot about myself and life since the first short postings on the facebook group. Remember sitting in a hotel in Guangzhou and trying to post on the most unstabile internet connection. Ahhh...these were the days....

Life looks good and busy,
