I thought I was doing so well with my adjustment to sleeping during what my body believes to be day and staying awake at night. Jet lag, I thought, not me. Yeah, well, think again! I can’t sleep at night and my Ambien prescription is slowly diminishing. I am wide awake at what is midnight… Continue reading Laziness and not much sleep…
Fried egg and swiss on a toasted onion bagel with a steaming cup of Chai latte. Oreos and milk are the same no matter where you go. There is nothing like having your comfort foods when you are halfway around the world. The walls and counter of this kitchen remind me of a stark hospital… Continue reading Morning and night…
It’s been a few days since my last blog and a lot has happened since Friday. Friday morning: Joe and I were back and forth between housing, Miss Sue and our new apt. at Dong Bu. After a lot of paperwork and a half dozen cab rides back and forth from Dong Bu to the… Continue reading Sunday night…
9:00 AM An appointment with Mr. “O” at the housing office confirmed that all we need to do before moving into Dong Bue apartments was to get our new apt. inspected. Hopefully it’s that easy tomorrow when we do the actual inspection. After my appointment with Mr. “O” I walked over to the base library… Continue reading 3rd Day in Korea
So here we are in Korea and I am fiending for my sewing machine. It is not guaranteed to arrive until Jan. 19th so I will have to survive on knitting and embroidery. This is the view out of my hotel room as the sun was coming up. I have a Valentine’s scarf in progress… Continue reading WIP – I call it “ADD”

Here is another January post to my Snap A Dozen Days group. This is Incheon Airport at sunset in Seoul. My hubby and I arrived late last night and this was our first main view in our new country. The airport looks very futuristic. It is beautiful in a very commercialized, industrial way. The photo… Continue reading Incheon Airport, Seoul, ROK
8:15 AM Woke up after tossing and turning all night long. It is hard to sleep when your body is used to being awake. 10:00 Sgt. Millen, Joe’s co-worker picked us up this morning and took us all over the base to get our paperwork in order. Updated ID cards, housing office, Tricare office, even… Continue reading 1st day in Korea…
It’s 10:38 PM on Monday, January 8, 2007 and we made it safe and sound to Osan, South Korea. We had a whirlwind weekend with lots of friends, family, laughter and tears. 3:30 AM Friday we headed out to New Jersey to take the cats to an 8:30 AM vet appt. at Fort Monmouth Army… Continue reading Kamsa Hamneeda!
So I am not making any real resolutions this year. Only a few minor, fun-filled ones that I know I can stick to. I hate the guilt associated with failed attempts to better oneself, it’s very tiring. So here goes: 1) Now that everything Joe and I own is in boxes or sold I would… Continue reading New Year's Resolutions
