Thank you Japan it Up!

Very BIG thank you to Steve from Japan it UP!

I really appreciate the support *^_^*

One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 52 – Sorry for the Delay!

I apologize for the very long delay -I’ve failed to keep it up lately due to: 1) painfully slow internet
2) apartment hunting
3) job hunting
4) writing jobs

then followed by

5) moving into an apartment
6) hooking up internet
7) getting a new mobile phone (because sucky Japan has to lock their iPhones (>_<) boo.)

Well, now we have our office area set up again and I’m back *^_^*

Have a lot of writing to do……….but my new view and yummy snack are distracting me:

One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 51 – Hello Toronto, How I’ve Missed Thee

Finally left Tokyo and back to Toronto…. trying hard to get settled, but now we’re both sick, trying to work and apartment hunt -but we’re both happy to have fresh clean water, food and a place to stay that doesn’t sway every few minutes -yay!

One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 50 – Thank You All <3

It’s difficult to find good things these days, especially with motion sickness from being at home, food/housohold product shortages from hoarders and nuclear panic….. just to name a few.

I do have a loving person who is always with me to make me smile and comfort in stressful times and I would like to thank him along with my loved friends and family members who have sent heartfelt messages since the quake. They are all my source of positivity in low times.

One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 49 – More Help From Afar

Today I received an unexpected message from someone I only know through a job site. He was very kind to send a message of care and concern. He also told me about an organization that he’s part of that’s helping those in the Northern areas affected by the quake.

If you would like to see the site, please visit: ADRA Japan (Site is in Japanese).

Thank you Mark!

One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 48 – Earthquake – Tokyo Update

I would like to thank everyone for their concern and warm wishes.

The Tokyo area is doing as well as can be, we’ve begun rolling blackouts to concerve energy for those in the North.

Food quickly runs out in shops, businesses close quite early and different trains stop throughout the surrounding areas of Tokyo, making it difficult to do much besides stay home and try to get by.

There is a constant worry about another earthquake/large aftershocks of approximately 7+ size, another tsunami and of course the condition of the nuclear plants…… needless to say, I constantly feel tense these days.

If you would like to help those to the North of Japan, please check out the Red Cross Site

Shibuya’s Famous Screen is Off

Certainly not something I thought I would ever see.

One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 47 – Beautiful Day

Despite the continuing tremors -one of which made my home creak everywhere and my body always being tense, it’s quite a beautiful day out.

To try and relax, I decided to go out and enjoy the day on ground level and see if any food shops have opened today.

There was minimal damage out except for a few cracks on the pedestrian bridge by the river and this:

One Good Thing A Day – Project Day 47 – Please Help Those In Need

We still feel tremors today, though life here is almost back to normal. Unfortunately for those just North of us, they are in total chaos.

If you can help, every little bit counts.
