I have posts I want to put up about things like the holiday a few days ago and such but man there is so much going on right now I can't seem to sit down to sort it out. Happening: Our orders are not solid yet so we are not sure where we are headed … Continue reading Another Bullet Point List
Since 2012, the months prior to the move to Japan in early 2013, I have been plotting and planning to have a tattoo done while in Japan. I wasn't sure what it would be or where on my body let alone who I would go to for the work. This was more than a little … Continue reading Not A Parent Approved Post – New Tattoo
The first week of March I began feeling the crunch of time, time getting away from me. It marked the final year of our time in Japan. Everything from that point forward will be the last chance to do something (seasonal) while we are here. The last Cherry Blossom (Sakura) season: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I busted my … Continue reading Spring Time Adventures
It's that time of year again. It is year two anniversary at the job and my evaluation will be coming up, which I went through last year here. There's always room for improvement but I'm not sure what I can pin point for discussion with the boss, she will likely ask for this again.

Hey bud, check out the thermal lunch bag my office mate got for me for Christmas. I only mentioned the blog with a chuckle and smile back when you gave me that nickname. Haha!
January has brought a lot of high points and some disappointing lows. High: We have been pet sitting a ferret the past week and it's been so much fun. He's the sweetest, best tempered ferret I've ever seen. Yes, he gets into things and he poops on our floor but can't blame him. He's in … Continue reading Highs and Lows
What started out as a concert and overnight stay at the hotel in Tokyo became so much more. The husband originally was going to go up with me on Monday afternoon, see the concert, spend the night then head home Tuesday but his work interrupted that plan and we adjust accordingly. He could no longer … Continue reading Opera and Steel
So, a blogger I follow REDdog is from the very awesome Australia and recently posted about how Aussies use nicknames for everyone. Too intriguing for me to pass up because I have never really had a nickname. Sure some people have used Di or Diane (which isn't shorter so not sure why that works for … Continue reading What’s In a Name?
