A stone weighing me down…

March 1, 2019 PinkLeave a comment

If you’ve been following the gallstone saga, you’ll know that I’m still being bugged with a rather large gallstone.  So I waited two weeks from the ER visit for an appointment with the doctor at my local hospital to consult about surgery.  The appointment was yesterday and since Mamoru couldn’t go with me as he… Continue reading A stone weighing me down…

The last…

Yesterday was the last step.  Our home visit with our local institution.  She spent about an hour and a half talking to us and my mother as well as Mimi who I offered as a person of support.  As per usual Mimi was awesome and even though she expressed concern about the language barrier, she… Continue reading The last…

Pouring rain…

Not a reference to the weather but more a reference to “when it rains it pours.”  Fresh off the heels of an ugly fight with Mamoru which I’d rather not rehash here since we’re okay, and he apologized for the nasty things he said (not to mention fresh off the heels of Friday’s tire fire),… Continue reading Pouring rain…

With hope…

Yesterday Mamoru turned in our foster to adopt application paperwork.  To adopt this paperwork needs to be approved by a panel of judges and the next meeting is in January.  They told Mamoru when he turned in the paper, that my proof of income was missing, so I contacted Company H immediately and asked them… Continue reading With hope…

Dream house and adoption…

December 10, 2018 Pink2 Comments

It’s that time of the year when you have to keep parts of the house closed off because Japanese apartments are poorly insulated, and it gets really cold if everything is opened up. Today is my first of two days off in a row that’s not a weekend, and I’m super happy about it.  My… Continue reading Dream house and adoption…

House and adoption talk…

November 27, 2018November 27, 2018 Pink4 Comments

After a period of reconciliation and discussion (after the initial drama) Mamoru and I decided to go through with purchasing お父さん’s house. Our plan is to demolish it and build a brand new house on the lot. This means we can choose everything about the house including the layout, how many rooms we want, and… Continue reading House and adoption talk…

Adoption and KC…

Oh the heels of the kitten fiasco, yesterday Mamoru received an email from an NPO asking us if we’d take a baby which will be born next month.  There’s one big hitch that both Mamoru and I were worried about.  The mother is 41 which puts the child at a bigger risk for Down Syndrome… Continue reading Adoption and KC…

Finally finished…

Being a housewife is boring AF.  At least if we had kids, there’d be something for me to do almost always.  Currently, I’ve done the dishes, laundry, and tidying up and it’s not even lunch time.  If you’re wondering why I’m currently a housewife, it’s because Company H is on holiday until October which is… Continue reading Finally finished…

A lot of sad…

September 2, 2018 PinkLeave a comment

It’s about three days left and then I’m out of here.  To be honest I couldn’t be happier.  Yet I’ve been fighting back tears all day to leave my niece who I love more than words.  The past two days I did a little babysitting for my sister.  In that time I played with my… Continue reading A lot of sad…

I’m at the airport Starbucks waiting to board my first of three flights which is a fucking day of travel that will drop me in my hometown some time tomorrow.  While I’m waiting I thought I’d share about our visit to our local institution. Last weekend we had out first visit at our local institution. … Continue reading About our visit to our local institution…
