We have started to make our "home" feel as much like home, without our stuff, as we can. After so long living in a hotel, I am thankful to have a home to go to. As I said before, I'm not super excited that it's on base. Right now, they have a "live where you work" policy. What that means is, that if the base you are stationed at (for Joel it is Kadena AB) is less than 98% full, you have to live on base. If it's over that, then they look at a secondary location and it has to be below 98%. If they are both above, then you are able to move off base. For us, Kadena was pretty full, but our secondary base was only at, like, 70%. We were told at first we would be placed there, and then magically they found a place for us to live on Kadena. I would have rather gone to the other base, because it is closer to where I will be working, but there's no arguing here. It is what it is, much to my dismay. So, may I present our home to you during our time here. It's not much to look at, but it does offer a view of the beautiful sunsets from the living room. Inside photos to come when we have our stuff.
