Waiting for Wednesday

Well, we have officially moved out of our apartment here in Hawaii. We are currently staying with a friend who doesn't have cable, or any form of TV, so its driving B a little crazy not being able to watch his sports. Only a few more things to do before we leave for the mainland. We have to take Sam to the airport and have him shipped off on Tuesday and that's pretty much it. Not much else left for us to do here in Hawaii, we've pretty much done it all. Tomorrow B has to work most of the day doing some final sign out stuff, and then on Tuesday he goes in for 1 hour, and then he is off for a month. Which is exciting.

We fly into Dallas where we will be hopefully able to pick up our truck (fingers crossed), then drive down to Houston to pick up a few things, then we are road tripping it to North Carolina. Not sure if we will stop and do some sight seeing along the way, I hope we will but I guess it depends on the weather as much as anything else.

So I guess I will write again before we leave Hawaii, might have a few final pictures to post.

Upcoming Moving Day

Well, moving day is just 3 days away... We don't leave Hawaii for another week but our household goods are being picked up in 3 days time. I am so excited to finally be moving on. It is so chaotic getting everything into some sort of order for the movers. I've started dusting and cleaning all of the frames/pictures that were/are hanging on the wall. I didn't realise how many I actually have until I took them all down and started cleaning them. Yesterday alone I cleaned 20 photo frames. Today I've cleaned close to 10... and I still have more to go. I have to start packing our luggage and washing everything that needs to be cleaned before we move... so much to do!!!

We had to buy a new kennel for Sam the other day... and let me tell you it is the biggest kennel that I have ever seen. We had rented a Jetta because our car is being shipped to the mainland, and B thought it would fit in the trunk/boot even though I had measured it and said that it would in NO WAY fit!!! So he tried anyway, and what do you know... it didn't fit. So we had to call someone to come and help us bring it back home. So now we just have to figure out how to get it to the airport on Tuesday for his flight. He is going to have quite the journey, and he hates being in the kennel.

So now I have to get back to cleaning out draws, cupboards and closets, as well as taking down all the pictures off the wall. I'll post again with photos of the mess that will be this coming Friday.

Not Surprised

Well, my mother has done it again! Its so cowardly to leave someone in a friggin' letter!!! Anyways... I don't even want to go into that. (This is what I'm "not surprised" about)

On to happier things. My husband is going to the Philippines for a week which he is really excited about so I'm excited for him. I think it'll be a nice little work vacation for him and he'll have a wonderful time. Everything is going well in regard to the upcoming move. So far no worries, but we all know that could change in an instant.

B and I have been going on hikes which has been fun, and I think we are going to go back and re-walk Ka'Aina Point. Its long and daunting and is probably best if we leave in the morning to start the trek, as it is in a location that gets very little wind.

We've hit the beach a few times. I have taken some pics but I haven't loaded them to the computer once I do I'll post them here. I really have no news... so dull!

Ka'iwi Point Trail

Today we decided to go on another hike. Well I decided and kept whining about it until we went. Little did I know that it was all up hill, but Oh so worth it.

Rabbit Island

Ka'ena Point

Well, this morning B and I got up and decided to go for a hike. It was highly enjoyable, if not hot. There was absolutely no breeze blowing, which sucked as it was HOT HOT HOT. I got sun burnt even though it was 9am. I took some pictures... 7.8 miles... Good news, I didn't start bitching until the 7th mile.

The Trail

Our final time and mileage.

Beer List

Since my husband has been home he has spoken about beer probably more then anything else. So I thought I would write down his beer list. His TOP 5! So here goes.

Top 5:
1. Flying Dog, Raging Bitch IPA (Yes, it is really called that)
2. Guiness Foreign Extra Stout
3. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
4. Gordon Biersch Hefeweizen
5. Duvel

On another note, the other day we went out for lunch and B ordered a beer. I took a photo to show what a poor pour looks like... and what the lacing should look like. The lacing is when you take a sip and the foam sticks to the glass... Or at least that is how I interpret it.

Lacing

Sick

Ugh... I feel like crap. My husband got home 3 days ago and he kindly brought a cold back with him. Wasn't that nice of him?! So now I feel like shit! Yay for me. Anyhow... Today we went out and I got some new running shoes, they're purple and pretty bad ass.

I really have nothing else to say. Yep... That's about it.
