Yes, I am moving again. Ugh! However, I am staying within the country of Japan. The Navy has decided to move us from a support facility, Kamiseya to the main navy base, Atsugi. I don't know why, who knows why they do some things.
Anyway, I get a call this afternoon...about 2:30ish, I actually thought it was a prank call. They housing office is telling me that within the next couple of weeks, they want us out of Kamiseya and on Atsugi. Overall, I am happy about this move. Kamiseya, while the houses are quite large (ours is 1400 sq ft), is about a 30 minute drive to Atsugi. And everything is on Atsugi: groceries, gas, post office, restaurants, etc.. but, we will have to downgrade quite a bit. Our new apartment will about only 900 sq ft. Thankfully, I did manage to get a bottom floor apartment, so I will have a small backyard attached to my apartment.
The best part about this move is I have one week. Yes, one week to organized everything. I am leaving for a three week vacation in Australia on July 3rd. So, literally, the day I return from being gone three weeks, I have a pack out (packing up my house and moving). What fun, what fun! Well, no one can say my life is uneventful!

Message from Kristen... OH MY GOSH! I just talked with you last night and you are moving! That is nuts! So you have this week to pack and then move right after you get back? At least you don't have to cancel your trip or anything like that!
Will your address be the same?
Yuck! - Well, I think I can sympathize... even though we haven't had it quite that bad yet, I still know the feeling of the traveling and then the packing/moving thing. Well, hope that it's as painless as possible and that you have a wonderful time on your trip to Australia! At least that should probably keep your mind off the move for a while! -Sonya
Hi Rachel,
I just saw where a tsunami was heading for Japan and was wondering what part of Japan you're in. I'm glad you are actually in Australia while it is happening. I am so envious of your adventures. We all are living vicariously through you.
Have fun!
