I lost weight! But not in a good way...

No I didn't lose a limb! I've been sick for I think this is the third week now? If you read the last post I wrote I'm pretty sure you know who gave it to me (small sounds of a runny nosed seven month old giggling can faintly be heard in the back ground.) Took me a week and a half of feeling like wanting someone to shoot me in the head to finally go see a doctor. Thanks Kazumi!

I had some major sinus issues that were so bad it was giving me flu type symptoms and a minor fever. So if it had to do with a heavy sinus headache, stuffy nose, congestion, cough, cold sweats, and a sore throat (sounds like the Scout Motto for sickness) I was your man for like 2 weeks straight!

I tried over the counter stuff for days before I finally gave in and made an appointment to see the doctor. I HATE GOING TO THE DOCTOR for myself. I always end up waiting in this cool air conditioned waiting room and by the time I see a doctor I'm already feeling better. Not this time though. Come to find out I had a sinus infection and would pretty much still have it, had I not gotten antibiotics.

So now 3 weeks later including about a weeks worth of sick days down the tubes I'm finally moderately OK and I finally got a decent nights sleep last night. Yay!

Oops! Almost forgot about the weight thing! Well I went from a too heavy 195 to 185 lbs. due to the lack of appetite. So I guess it wasn't all bad. Now to see if I can keep it off!

It was funny I was just talking to Kazumi tonight that I haven't had any meat since Saturday. Which for a normal person thats like 'soo?' but for me thats freaking 'WOW!' I love the stuff and with working a 9pm to 6am shift for work the eating choices are slim unless you bring your own food to work. Mainly fast food type restaurants and the soda and vending machines in the hall.

Weird side note on the vending machines, you'd figure this being an IT Help Desk the Mountain Dew, and Pepsi machines would be emptied out first but it's not. It's always the condom machines.... Just kidding it's always the fruit juice machines? Man either this building is full of newb's or the vending guy is slipping with the juice machine.

Kazumi's trying to get me to eat healthier. We've been reading a Macrobiotic's book and since I was so congested I couldn't even taste food so I ended up eating stuff I usually don't enjoy at all. Also the portions I've been eating are usually smaller than what I used to eat since I've been sick so that helps also.

Only problem we are having is that Kazumi likes to stay up late at night which means she ends up snacking at all hours. Also we have been on an artisan bread kick lately. Currently eating a local brand of sourdough by Crumb Bros. Pictured below YUM!


Also I love sweet drinks like high sugar juices and stuff but I guess thats not too bad but definitely not Macrobiotic.

Gambatte!

Hey, good update. It feels like we haven't seen you for ages. Glad you're feeling better. We must be getting old or something b/c Wami and I only crave meat about once or twice a week.

Anyway, don't be a stranger! See ya around!

.....Hello?....Hello?.....Is this thing on? Mic test....1...2....3....4... So I figured I'd dust this old thing off and let you all know in my once in my few years address of whats been going on. But most of you who will actually read this probably know already about most of this stuff. Okay first thing probably the most important thing, we had another boy name Hinata Lamalii Sing or Hina for short....But as some of you know he just turned three so this may be old news but heck I am trying to do a consistent time line of important events okay? Second big event, we moved out of downtown SLC to Utah County. A condo in Lehi to be more specific...But yet again old news and we have already been hear over a year. Two next October. As fun as the old place was, having twice as much space is so much better. I like it because it is bigger but not to big as to not be able to hear each other if someone calls out. Best of all upon reflection NO TRAINS!!! It is so much quieter but as you ...

H a p p y N e w Y e a r ! Well its been 9 months since I last wrote and I figured as my New Years resolution I would kick the blog around a bit more. I think since its been a while I'll give you a quick recap of what has happened since than first. Since March 2007 I have gone through 3 jobs till my current pos ition which I think was good for me in the long run. Our son celebrated his 1st birthday in June with some frien ds and his Gr andpa and Grandma Sing from Hawaii. Kazumi went back to her ol d job, because they allowed her to bring our son Loa with her. We also found out we will be expecting our next child (another boy) in early April. Okay, back to the present. For the holidays, as usu al it was a pretty quiet affair. Spent some time at the Yu's home for a pre-Christmas get together watching all the kids going crazy and enjoying some Japaneses food. Then a stint at the LDS hospital emergency room on Christmas night (Woo-hoo!) with Loa and a case of the Croup. Which is a...

SOLO! (Me saying goodbye at the Airport..) So the wife and son are finally off on their grand excursion to Japan for a month to see the nihon family. Leaving me to work..... Go to school.... And paying the bills....... NICE! If I think to much on it I'll probably get depressed so hmm? Lets look on the bright side and think of the advantages of being a semi-bacholer once again shall we? 1. The bed has finally been relinquished! To be more specific and give you a better understanding of how much this matters I will give you a little idea of how the sleeping arrangements are in our little home. First off I married a woman from Japan where she's used to sleeping on a futon on the floor so basically the whole floor became her bed at night growing up. This thus turns into me coming home from work to see she (Kazumi) is all over the bed, the covers are mangled and half the pillows are on the floor. Including most of the time my pillow. Wonder if she's trying to tell me something?...
