Back to the Grind

So bad at blogging, seriously, with a puppy and a 1 year-old walking all over the place, I really don't have much time!

I am finally getting around to uploading pictures to facebook. OMG, it's been well over 2 weeks, but the problem is, my dear husband packed my laptop in my backpack, but failed to pack my A/C adapter and so, well, no power here. I am using the husband's laptop, but I hate using it as I have all of my stuff on my computer and none of it here.

Let's see, I have put in my final word on when I am quitting to become that all welcomed SAHM. It is a bitter sweet thing being that I will no longer be working... I don't know. Ehh. I am happy though. I have finally gotten to the point of where I am comfortable just being at home. I have my own schedule on Zoey and there's no crazy mornings when I am not working. Working though, I like how it kills half of the day when the husband is on those 24-30 hour days, so it makes the time pass by a lot quicker.

Um... After talking to my Dad about us moving home, we all seem content with that idea. We have a lot of planning though with the house and the land. I am all too excited that we'll have a permanent home and I'll get so much help from not only my parents but the husbands Mom too. The kids will also be quite happy as James has been homesick since, well day 1. While James is in school, Zoey will be with me, up until she's about 4 when I will put her in pre-school. We have already figured out James' school situation, but I have to work out the details when we get and sign a contract for the husband's job.

Speaking of the husband's job, he's finally getting the wheels turned, meaning he finally submitted the paperwork for his Hawaii Medical License, and so now we have to wait the 6 months. Eek, such a loooong time!!! In the meantime, he went ahead and filed his paperwork for his DEA license. Wow, seriously, I can't believe it... He can write for drugs to be dispensed outside of the hospital, oh and narcs.

Well, it's time for me to cut this short as I am trying to upload pictures to facebook and watch the kids cause ruckous in the house.

Humid and Hot

This is not the weather I was hoping for here in HI, being that I have been already dying in CA's heat. So far this trip has been great. Zoey's birthday party turned out to be great and I got too see a lot of friends and family I don't get to see very often.

I went to Target here, and let me just say, boo to no dollar section (they always carry HK and really good stuff in there) and boo to expensive prices. I was quiet shocked at the difference in pricing!

We went to Ala Moana and I noticed the Lego store is coming to HI, though it is looking to be much smaller than the one in Ontario and Disneyland. It's great that they are coming to HI though being that eventually we will be back here and I would miss that store!

Let's see, what else?? The husband had an informal interview with 1 hospital and 1 clinic. I don't know how that will work out though, as we always have things in the air and we are never able to plan things out. I have since given up and given to God. Whatever works out in the future will work out as we have learned the husband's journey to becoming a doctor was definitely paved out by God. Well, the one thing is for sure, when we go back to CA, the husband needs to start filing for his Hawaii Medical License and then he has to submit his "formal" application.

Right now I'm on a manhunt for Hawaiian print dog leashes. I have come to find none really made in Hawaii. I really wanted to get one for the friend that is puppy sitting Ando. Which by the way, I really miss that guy..... We went to the Pet Expo and saw one Ando look-alike and I got really sad, I can't wait to be reunited with him again!

Well back to my morning......
