Saturday, our family took a long needed ride together to the ocean. We were crammed 8 people in an old 7 passenger van, but it felt good to get out. We need to do it more often.
Between my work schedule and my husband's schedule, we only have 1 day out of the week that we can all be together... if there are no meetings or appointments on that day. I miss the days before I had to get a part time job to help make ends meet. Back then, the kids and I were able to just jump in the car and go explore. Now, we have to plan everything in advance to make sure everyone's calendars are free.
Outside of work and the kids, I've been quite busy. Sakura-Con came and went in a blur, but we've already begun planning again for Sakura-Con 2005. This year, I'm volunteer coordinator again and I'm helping to create the Japanese language version of the site. That should be up within the next month. Also, I am now the ANCEA treasurer. ANCEA is the parent corporation for Sakura-Con. Like Sakura-Con, ANCEA is run by all volunteers... yea, we actually do this just for the sake of doing it. Crazy, eh. ^-^
In other news, I've finished the travel journal from our trip to Japan, finally. I do have a few extras I still plan on adding to the English version of the site, but the journal itself is finished.
I've got Fukuyama-san's new album. As expected, it's awsome! I've got one of the song translations finished... the rest will get done as I have time.
It's nearly 2:00 am already. I have to get up at 6:00am to get my son going and get myself ready for work. The weekend has gone too fast...
I'll have to do my Japanese language journal entry tomorrow... having trouble keeping eyes open now...
peace
