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!
