Today I am 5 weeks pregnant. I never thought I’d type that line let alone actually be 5 weeks pregnant. Most days I still can’t believe this is real. Mamoru caught a cold so I’ve been staying away from him. I bought some masks to wear on the train. I’m worried about catching something while… Continue reading 5 weeks…
I had to run out of the house quickly this morning, so I didn’t get to compare today’s preggo test with yesterday’s. I’ll check it when I get home. I’m always afraid that instead of getting darker the test will get lighter. It always starts out light. However, yesterday’s test showed darker than the day… Continue reading Mild woes…

He joked we could be like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt (without the divorce). I told him I was surprised. He wondered why I was surprised but in the end… Continue reading Jokes help…

I’m garbage at Japanese. It’s true. A little over 5 years here and I’m total garbage at… Continue reading Japanese and friends…

On Facebook the memories come up daily, and I look at old pictures of myself either on FB itself or on my… Continue reading More on the weight loss…
It’s nearing 5AM in Japan, and it’s raining. I’ve arrived home a little after 7PM. Yesterday upon getting my massive bags up 3 flights of stairs, I immediately dropped to the ground and hugged the ever lovin’ crap outta Small Lady. I’m not sure when Mamoru got home but I was well in dreamland at… Continue reading Back to life…
