My husband went to work. I enjoy our vacation trip, but I also enjoy getting back to our routine. I enjoyed my routine, which is to study homeopathy through the lecture videos. I finished watching all the videos for this year. Now I need to review them to prepare for the annual exam scheduled in next month.
Rest-up day 4/27/2024
All of us had a sound sleep and enjoyed sleeping on our own bed. When we finally got out from bed, it was already close to 9 a.m. I guess it is okay because we needed enough sleep to rest up well. My mom in law seems to have been missing us a lot. She contacted each one of us individually through phone texts. We already look forward to our next visit in June.
Navajoland visit Day-3, 4/26/2024
This time our visit to Navajo land was a short one. We had only 2-nights trip. Today we packed up our staff and headed to our home. Even though it was a very short trip, it was a very good trip. We could spend all day with my mom in law. She seemed to have enjoyed having us as her company. We made her laugh a lot and communicated a lot. We also had a good time meeting with the handyman, which found out he lives very close to our homesite.
On the way back, I received a text from my Navajo friend. I lost all the contact information saved on my cell phone, so it was good that she thought of me and contacted me. I told her she had a great intuition to contact me. Maybe she could sense our existence on Navajo land. I told her this visit was a very short one so that we could not have a get together, but maybe we will make It happen in our next visit in June.
Navajoland visit Day-2, 4/25/2024
My family and I spent all day with my mom-in-law together. Our day started going to the zoo. The second stop was the museum, where we found they had a job fair. My husband had an beneficial conversation with two recruiters and received the contact information about the future job opportunity. Even though the pay rate would drop, the job is job. He is interested in getting more information. After we came back, we had a nice cookout.
In the evening at 5:30 p.m., one handyman came to our homesite for our new shed building project. It was nice of him that he gave my mom-in-law a phone call at the previous evening as a friendly reminder of our upcoming appointment. Even today when our appointment time came closer, he called my mom-in-law that he was several minutes away from our homesite. Then when we met him in person, all of us liked him a lot. He seems to be trustworthy and keeps his words. My mom-in-law is willing to pay for all the cost for building a new shed for us. I am looking forward to our new shed to be completed. It might happen much sooner than I think.
Navajoland visit Day-1, 4/24/2024
We left our house early in the morning to head to Navajo land. Today the road was quiet and peaceful so that we could enjoy our road trip of 8 hours. When we arrived at our homesite, we were amazed that the property was nicely taken care of by cutting weeds and the dead leaves were nicely raked. We thought my mom in law hired somebody to do so, but she said she did all by herself. We are glad that she is healthy and takes good care of herself as well as the property.
Comparison our daily life between 40 years ago and the current days 4/23/2024
My daughter needed to create a presentation material for the social study. The theme was the change in our life between the old days without the high technology and the modern days with the high technology. The instruction says the students are required to start interviewing to two people who are older than students about the change. My daughter interviewed my husband and me. It was an interesting project. I shared my experience regarding the research method switched from books to internet search. My husband shared his experience regarding the communication method switched from payphones and home phones to personal cell phones. My daughter’s teacher liked her presentation very much and gave her a comment “absolutely perfect.” I bet he enjoyed watching her presentation.
Wrapping up the school work 4/22/2024
I supported my daughter to finish up as much as her school works so that she doesn’t need to bring her school laptop to the upcoming Navajo visit trip.
Training videos of Japanese and English versions 4/21/2024
I watched the biofeedback training videos of both American version and Japanese version. The Japanese training is definitely helpful, but they use very old version and the screens are not exactly the same. On the other hand, the English version is helpful with the current screens, but their English is very fast that I sometimes need to slow down the speed to 0.75 as the normal speed. In any ways, I am enjoying learning the new information and technique through both versions of trainings.
Biofeedback session (3) 4/20/2024
In the past several days, I spent time in reading several of the instruction manuals of the biofeedback device. At night I did my third session of the biofeedback session. I had a fun exploring the different commands and new pages.
State University tour 4/19/2024
In the early morning, we left for the big town for the state university tour. when I got the receptionist counter, I was astonished at the number of people. I thought the tour will be done with a small number of people, like just us and other one or two families. But I was wrong. There were more than 100 people in the presentation room. After the 30-minutes presentation, they divided us into two groups. We were told to follow the young guide to walk around. They said the walking tour would be around 90 minutes. It was tough to walk around under the strong Arizona sun. We decided to give up following the tour at the very beginning. It was nice to see the campus and the students relaxing here and there.
