This week the hubby’s out of town so Rocky and I have had many quiet evenings of missing him. To fill my time I started “Matrimony” and am about to hit page 100. So far so good. The story grabbed my attention from the beginning though it’s taken a turn towards something I’m concerned may not be good.
This morning I met up with friends at a restaurant on the Sunabe Sea Wall here in Okinawa that overlooks the East China Sea. It is a dreary day and though it started to mist a bit at the end of lunch, sitting out on the balcony seating was a nice way to spend the lunch hour and then some. While waiting for my friends to arrive I had a good twenty minutes or so by myself to read. Every few minutes I would look up to watch the tide slowly coming in and the heads of divers bobbing in the water.
Now I am home with a full belly and an afternoon ahead of me to read and nap before American Idol at 7pm. Below is a pic of the East China Sea further up the coast from where we had lunch but this was taken on a sunny day so you can get an idea of what most days here look like.

Blue Skies…. beautiful pic.
I hate that you are missing Pete…
But love that I have had time to read your interesting insights…
I miss being on the rock with you.
Thanks for your you-ness.
let me know how you like matrimony…i tried to win it from another bookblog, but might have to break down and buy it.
I’m almost done with is and have enjoyed it for the most part. Try the library though. They might have it. Otherwise I don’t regret buying it. Borders.com is discounted though so try there too.
Okinawa and an afternoon of reading – sounds lovely!
