We are the Stuarts (formerly of Imperial) now residing in Okinawa, Japan.

This blog started from a desire to bridge the miles as we were preparing to leave the USA for 3+ years. It has turned into much more. It's part travel diary, part personal reflection, part "sociology of military life" and part mommy-blog. We hope you read something here that is interesting to you (or at least not a total waste of your time).

Technical Difficulties...Please Stand By...

Hello Everyone,

We will have to take a brief blogging hyatus, as our iMac is in the shop. The power source needs to be replaced. Not bad, considering it's the only difficulty we've had with it in 5 years. Anyway, talk about a sick feeling, when you go to start up your computer...nothing happens...and you suddenly realize you have hundreds of $ of iTunes and thousands of priceless photos on this machine, and almost NONE of it backed up! When I confessed this to the iGenius at the Apple store, he calmly informed me that it would be a good idea to do that right away. Ya think? Not to mention, I have a spread sheet that tracks when our bills are due, etc...do I have a paper copy? Of course not! Why would I need that when it's always at my fingertips? Sheesh, I'm in iDiot!
