Aloha friends!
I survived the week! My hubby came home yesterday morning – I cannot believe two years have gone by that quick. I feel like we saw him every 4 months so it wasn’t too bad. Being a single parent was exhausting enough that the days went super quick. We need to wait for some of his new furniture (furniture that he got in Okinawa that we are replacing some of our older furniture with) but it’s been a bunch of unpacking and organizing. Kids love that they have another parent to bother again though and I love it! I can get some quiet, unbothered time!
Today is my son’s holiday piano recital and the first one that my hubby gets to watch so it will be great! Then he has a break from piano for a month for winter break. Kids have 2 more weeks of school until winter break – so they are really looking forward to that! Can you believe 2025 is just around the corner?! I can’t…
Anyway, I hope you all have a great week!

Yay, welcome back to your husband and yay, for you getting more quiet time! I remember when you first mentioned he’d be moving to Japan—has that much time already flown by? I also can’t believe 2025 is just around the corner. Two more weeks to go how?! 🫣 I’m keen to check out A Song to Drown Rivers. I’ve heard amazing things about it! Have a great week ahead, Yolanda 🙂
It’s been a busy weekend for sure! And yes 2 years already – seriously mind blown. Let’s all try to enjoy the rest of 2024!
