And so it continues….hubby in China, me here, and a complete disconnect between us.
The calls have been more sporadic lately b/c of cell phone bills and long hours at the plant, so we go days between contact. When we do catch each other, we are tired and testy, seemingly unable to be […]
Hubby is still in Ningbo, China, working on the installation of a machine for Borg Warner, an important customer. Things are going very well. All the issues with the machine have been minor ones and easily fixed. Once things are wrapped up there, he will fly back to HKG to […]
This morning I had the pleasure of taking four anxious, scared, and in one case, hysterical children to have shots. The excitement for the move to HKG was tarnished a bit when they discovered the two events were related. “You mean, we have to have shots to move to HKG?! Why in […]

I woke this morning to a phone call from hubby, (always a nice treat) with some quiet time to have a nice conversation. We even got to “see” each other using the webcams and Skype. While I was on the phone with him, the regular phone rang, and it was my friend B, from Hong […]
Here is a quick video hubbyman took of our apartment to show me the updates. Check it out!

Hubby has been gone since September 23rd. Frankly, it has gotten old and we still have many weeks until he’s home.
We aren’t communicating well because we have no reference point or common background right now. I never realized how important that was. He’s living his life in HKG and I’m living mine […]
The hotel hubbyman has been staying at was booked solid for the rest of the week and the weekend. If he wanted to stay, they would have charged him double the rate he was paying and he could only have the room for another day, not even the weekend. So, hubbyman is now living in […]
