Hawaii
« Previous EntriesLovin’ Some Kona
Saturday, June 28th, 2008 Whoohoo! My husband and son are back from Hawaii. I didn’t get to travel there this time because of the prices of airfare. Yes, blame the oil industry. Or the government’s refusal to drill domestically. Or the auto industry’s slow development of affordable cars that run on alternative energy. Or whatever.
The good news is […]
The Pride Of Maui
Friday, May 9th, 2008I still haven’t booked a flight to Hawaii. I’m waiting to see how long my husband will be there and hoping the price of air fare comes down. I hate when my plans are so unsettled, though. In the meantime, I’m looking around online for interesting and new adventures for this trip, if this […]
Affording Home
Sunday, April 6th, 2008I know that the area where I live is economically depressed. I also know that the housing market across the country is sluggish, at best. It’s a buyer’s market, from all I’ve heard and read. And yet, there are places where new construction is booming and property values are soaring. I know that because […]
Cruel And Unusual Punishment
Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008 Did I really say I miss my husband?? Well, maybe not!
Brian just called from Hawaii. He’s sitting on the porch drinking - are you ready for this???? - KONA COFFEE!!!!! Yes, he is. I’m stuck at home with Folgers and he’s drinking Kona. Oh, and did I mention that he prefers Folgers? Life is […]
Life Changes
Thursday, March 27th, 2008I hate when I don’t have time to blog. It’s one thing to not blog because there’s nothing to say, which isn’t often the case for me, but it’s another to have so many things going on that just sitting down to type it all out takes more free time than is available. Like […]
The Carnival of Aloha
Monday, November 5th, 2007If the colder weather and change of clocks have you feeling a little down, how about a swing through the most beautiful of our 50 states? The Carnival of Aloha is going on today and it’s just the thing to put some sunshine in the chilly November day. The theme is Aloha Takes a […]
Purchase Land Or A Condo?
Friday, August 3rd, 2007 Oh, to be 25, single and living in Hawaii! That would be my son, Jesse. He’s a great guy, very talented and a hard worker. He’s doing well in Hawaii but he’s faced with a decision regarding housing. Should he continue to rent, Purchase Land or buy a condo? Such a quandary!
Land on […]
Perfect Hawaiian Rental: Jeep!
Thursday, May 24th, 2007Right now, I ought to be preparing to head back to Hawaii. Since Brian came home early, that trip has been postponed. (Not cancelled!!) Brian may or may not go back in the fall; Jesse will likely be there for quite a while. So I’ll have to plan my vacation to visit my son. […]
Another Job Offer
Friday, March 30th, 2007 My husband called from Hawaii yesterday to tell me he may be getting an offer to do another job there. I’m not sure if he’ll be contracted or hired outright. I guess he’ll call me over the weekend to let me know.
I’ve been looking into getting his business cards printed at a reasonable cost. […]
Goodbye, Kauai
Wednesday, March 21st, 2007 This will probably be my last post before I get home. I’m going to pack up my laptop, spend a few hours at the beach then finish packing to leave. I may have time to check in from Phoenix but probably not.
This trip has simply not lasted long enough. I’ve already decided that […]
