Moving

Hey all. It has been a while and I am horrible at this blog thing. I am procrastinating starting on my big project that I am left to do on my own due to some crazy circumstances so that is what you can thank for this post!!!

Anyhow for all my fans out there-the Sakamoto crew will be heading back down South at the end of July. We hate to leave Northern California-our family and beautiful mild weather. It will be nice to start to set down some permanent roots in a nice area. I will be excited that my kids will be able to grow up in an area where there are lots of people who speak Chinese and Spanish, have excellent local public schools-with the elementary being across the street about 4 house down and to have a new start with a new school district that I get to teach the kind of class I have been wanting to for YEARS now and that on top of pays well and has great benefits. Jason graduated from CSU East Bay (still Hayward to me!) in June (I am SO proud of him) and would like to continue on for a MA/MS so we'll see what transpires. Could be any following: work, school, or work and school. I am also excited to be fairly near some old friends, Stephanie in Huntington Beach area and Amanda in Santa Clarita area. I hope I will be able to get together with them every couple months. I even have a cousin down there somewhere I just might have to look up! Oh yeah can't forget about my Uncle Bill and Aunt Stephanie in Ramona. I am also looking forward to seeing if there are some of my old acquaintances in the ward I used to attend and to make new friends as well.

I know things are going to be difficult and trying in the next week or so with me trying to still work, hold down the fort while packing it up and all that good stuff. I just pray the good Lord gives me extra patience and energy to get everything done-I know if I ask He will....He always does.
