February ‘25
Week 2
So the last week of January Mom invited me to go with her to Hawaii for her Birthday. Yes there will be pictures and hopefully small video clips! I’m spending this week packing and hoping I don’t forget anything.
Week 3
HAWAII
Dream vacation.
We left on Valentine’s Day and arrived that afternoon. We spent the first part of our trip visiting Waikiki shops and dining at Waikiki Beach at the Hilton Tropics Bar and Grill. Then spent that evening at Waikiki Beach watching the Valentine’s celebrations and performers.
The next day we went to the National Pearl Harbor Museums. We visited the USS Arizona Memorial, the USS Bowfin Submarine, and the USS Missouri Battleship.
Then our last big day we went to the Waikiki Aquarium, and the Honolulu Zoo. After that we went to Diamon Head beach and walked the strip with shops and dunked our feet in the water for funsies.
Once I get the pictures gathered I’ll make a separate blog with the galleries. There will also be some clips in a small video as well. I only took my phone, so we’ll see how it turns out!
Week 1
Did I mention I’m taking pictures in the same spot every 1st of the Month? WELL I am. And I hope it shows some awesome differences and changes in the seasons. Trying to me more mindful to take pictures.
Other than that the first week was so difficult. Fighting with people who want to pretend they have authority over our property. So freakin’ typical. No worries though, we’ll be seeing a Lawyer at the end of the month to put it into a Living Trust. Less opportunity for people to try any bullshit.
Needless to say I’ve read THREE books in full the last two weeks. Onyx Storm, When the Moon Hatched, and Kingdom of Ash. See reviews in the Book Club section!
I’ve also been in full writing mode for my own novel. Happy to report that I’ve just finished Volume 2, Draft 1. Which is the half-way point. Meaning I’ll be able to share with Beta-Readers by June/July. Which ALSO means you guys will be able to hopefully read the Graphic Novel by 2026. Cross your fingers.
Week 4
WELL I am absolutely happy to say that the issue at the beginning of the month was dropped after they read my letter. Damn straight.
Other than that it’s been a whirlwind of finishing things and prepping for March. You’d think it’s crazy to need a vacation from your vacation but it’s totally true. I still need Mom to send me her pictures from vacation. Probably not going to happen until summer. So I’ll get a nice show of pictures at some point. Just bare with me.
