My family and my sister's family are sharing a condo on the beach just south of Kona on the island of Hawaii. We went to the top of Mauna Kea last night and saw the stars. We looked at the star system with the nearest known black hole. It is visible to the naked eye. We have been eating well. It's mostly seafood from Costco. Since several of us are capable, no one is tasked with too much cooking. Tomorrow, we boogie board, drink Kona coffee and visit sea turtles on the beach. Whoops.
We are home like everyone else.
Suffering? No. Gaining a few pounds from Monica's instantpot meals. But, the Wii still works. It's beautiful outside. The lawn is looking good? Green, anyway.
Pre-K is winding down. There are not as many assignments as before. Classroom decorum has improved. Yes, learning is happening online, even for four year olds. Mrs. Oh dropped off Rose's graduation tee shirt today.
I am reading Harry Potter to Rose now. Great book. Really good book.
We could be sad. We were looking forward to Hawaii. We'll get there again someday. But, we haven't given it much thought. I just realized today that now would be the middle of our trip. Being sad is not our choice. It could be. It is not.
It is important to focus on the positive. We are lucky there is plenty of positive to think about.
