I am official all settled back into normal life in Okinawa. I am trying to seek out some exciting things to do while i am here and have found that i am not as young as i once was. Two of my marines (ages 20, and 19) asked if I wanted to go tubing with them about a week or so ago and why not, not doing anything else exciting, well needless to say this when I found that when tubing it’s best not to do it with a 19 and 20 year old, when you are almost 33. Yes i walked away with a bruised or fractured rib. I found they don’t do anything for this except prescribe you 800mg of Motrin, and tell you you should probably not be doing that at your age. Oh well live and learn.
Recently some dear friends of mine checked into my unit. I met him in mp school, and then we lived for a time together at our first duty station, and while we were both on leave I introduced him to his future wife, who i have known since like 1st grade (i think). so we have been catching up and they have been dragging me around with them to do things our own age. Take their kids to the beach, have a nice quiet sushi dinner. all very nice.
Well that is it for now.
Karen I will post pictures soon I promise, I have lost my charger and am waiting for h~ to send me one.

Well we started the paper chain of my time left here in the states, there are 23 paper rings left on the chain, this sucks. Yes I am a Marine and I love what I do, but I love my family so so much. I don’t want to leave them.
