I love how many restaurants have miniature houses on the counters in San Francisco. Its delightful.

I had a graduation party for my oldest child. So weird to see all of the kids I knew since they were five drive up as eighteen year olds for brunch. Unacceptable, really. I shouldn’t be this old.

If Cats Disappeared from the World by Genki Kawamura is an excellent book. The kind you have to sit with for awhile when you’re done.

I haven’t felt this happy in a long time. It’s been one piece of good news after another. And as always, Longmont, you make me proud!

The kids and I updated all our vaccines. They wanted cake and ice cream as a reward. I bought myself a copy of Silent Hill f.

My oldest child marching in the Boulder County Fair Parade with their new friends from the Northern Arapaho Tribe and Chino, Japan. Last night, we had the Arapaho to our house and the kids danced for hours on our porch together, while FaceTiming the Japanese kids. This is how peace is made.

My bobtail cat, Kiki, went tearing across the table, taking everything off with her, launched herself into a perfect fuzzy cannonball, and slammed into the dining room window, scaring the shit out of all the squirrels and birds at the feeder. Then she cannon-balled back the other way.

Fixed air conditioning and it was only $250. Now to fixing the wet carpet in my flooded basement (broken drain pipe, thankfully another (relatively) cheap fix)

When you you want to take your kids to a castle in Okinawa, finally get there, and find out that the castle FELL DOWN, but they put this building over it with this painting on it. “This castle you would have been seeing today…” It was unexpected.

My husband is Japanese and from Tokyo; we are currently in Japan. People keep speaking to him in simple English with over dramatic hand gestures, trying to show him where to put things. But yet they speak to my teen with dyed hair in Japanese. It is absolutely hilarious.

“I want milk tea and toast.” “Milk tea isn’t included in this set. Only hot tea.” “Hot tea please.” “Do you want milk in your tea?” Ah, Japan.

Longmont is the first city to have a Sister City relationship with a Tribal Sovereign Nation. Here is a video about it: youtu.be/_0KVqjt8ilQ My oldest child will be going to the youth exchange in Wind River this summer, and I am helping with the elder exchange.

It was a great honor to help serve dinner to the tribal elders of the Wind River Arapaho and the seniors of Longmont at the Welcome Home dinner last night to celebrate the Sister Cities exchange. I learned so much and am looking forward to much more.

My youngest kid is twelve. She was thrilled to get makeup, clothes and books, and go to the izakaya for dinner. It’s a fun age, but it’s definitely a turning point. No more little kids in the house.

I’m sorry, now it was my turn for a late response! My family spent a week passing around a stomach virus, and then Kei had a play performance. I hope your wrist is feeling better!
