hoping

「if i was a good blogger, i would have written a dozen posts by now, considering there is so much to write about (earthquake/tsunami related and otherwise).  right now, we are understaffed at work so we're all working overtime,  there's the stress and anxiety about radiation and it's draining always being on edge with ever continuing aftershocks but, i have a house and job to go to.  i am healthy and warm and fed.  i am alive and loved.  and it seems that's more than enough to be thankful for right now.」

that was five days ago.  i'm still a slacker blogger.  i'm still exhausted at the end of every day.  i fall asleep on the couch, unwillingly, by nine, often for a couple hours before dragging myself to bed.  then i wake up and do it all over again.

eventually things will even out.  hopefully.

things definitely need to even out soon. For you guys further North anyway. God, I wish things would even out and we don't even feel any of the aftershocks! Hope everyone is OK after last nights big one.

I could of written something similar.

Things are hard but we do have a lot to be grateful for- for all the reasons you said, and more.

Lets hope the Japan we know and love returns to something resembling "normal" soon.
