Journal Entry – 8.18.2018

It is 3:25 AM on Saturday August 18th, 2018.  I’m still jet-lagged but was able to sleep an hour later this morning so assume that is progress. Life has changed again with the end of the Japan summer trip, school starting and almost back to our normal routine.  There is no Hoshuko today and we’re…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 8.18.2018

Healthcare Debate and a small rant on selfishness (nonpartisan)

For me, just saying that word conjures up feelings of boredom, something that only old people with white/gray hair and wrinkles talk about and large confusing plans that make me feel dumb when I try to understand them. Now, when I read my news in the morning it is a word tied to something…… Continue reading Healthcare Debate and a small rant on selfishness (nonpartisan)
