Reflecting Back...

First, no update on the situation in Japan. We continue to monitor it, but so far everything is going as planned. There is still very little radiation threat to Yokosuka.

Second, we leave San Diego on Wednesday. We will be heading to San Jose, CA (near San Fransisco) to be with John's family for about a month until we head to Japan. Today I was reflecting back on advice I would give myself regarding this move if I could go back in time....

1. Don't plan a calendar of events in your head. Nothing will go according to this calendar and it will only serve to stress you out. Plan only day by day.

2. Get Wylee's stuff done as soon as you are even thinking about moving to Japan. This delay on your part cost him 3 months in quarantine.

3. Don't buy a car you can't afford (okay, okay, this one applies to my life in general, not Japan).

4. The month between quitting work and leaving San Diego is not going to be a cake walk. Quit acting like it's a huge vacation.

Alright, that's all I can think of for now :) See that picture of me...because it's like I'm talking to myself? Haha?

I'm really tired. Today we sold John's truck, ran a 5k, and got my car appraised at CarMax. A really full day of running around and not resting. Tomorrow we sleep in, run another fitness challenge thing, take our surf gear to a surf consignment shop, and then meet friends for St. Paddy's Day drinks......

Good night for now, all :)
