Recap- from Japan!


Deployment Recap: Week 19, JAPAN version!

I’m went to Japan last week to see Lyle. The boat made a scheduled port call to Yokosuka Navy Base and I was able to fly there to spend some time with Lyle.  It was a fast, work-filled trip, but absolutely worth the time and effort.

Emotional: Absolutely happy. Best week of the deployment, because it’s been a “break”.

Physical: Lazy, but good.  I’ve hit the treadmill a couple times and have gone running on the base, and we’ve been walking everywhere in town. But I miss CrossFit. I’ll get back to it soon.

Communication: No complaints here, for once. It’s so nice to be able to sit and talk, almost like a real couple!

Something Fun You did This week: Everything- exploring Yokosuka, taking the trains to Tokyo and going to Tokyo Disneyland, exploring Tokyo. It’s been an amazing trip!

What are you looking forward to nextweek: Going home and getting life back to normal.

What made you happy this week: Seeing Lyle for the first time since before Halloween. That feeling of running to him and being hugged by him. Everything about this trip has made me happy.

What made you sad/mad this week: Too much work and stress for Lyle. But that’s life.

What do you miss this week: I am just trying to live in the moment right now and not miss anything.

Favorite song/show/movie of themoment: It’s March Madness (soon), so does NCAA basketball count?
