My aunty called me and said her dryer is broken.  The old me would just order another one and have it delivered.  But the new me wants to learn and fix everything.  So I headed over with my little bag of tools.  I thought I should try first before paying $1,400 for a new one.

I started taking things apart trying to figure out the problem.  Basically going by trial and error.  I learned so much about the mechanics of this appliance and it’s pretty complicated, yet very simple.  

I finally found out what the problem was!  I just ordered the parts and when it comes, I’ll go back and put everything back together.  I just hope I remember how.  Haha.  

Then spend the afternoon and one of the most beautiful places on the planet.  Taking flowers and paying my respect to 3 generations of Fukunaga’s.  Now I know why they really wanted this to be their final resting place.  Not only beautiful, but also very peaceful.

A couple days ago, Joshua asked me if it was ok if Billabong used some of my old videos of him and Seth. I said of course. Then the video comes out yesterday and as I watched it, I had chicken skin. I clearly remember all those clips I took of the boys when they were kids. I use to follow them around and document everything. Sometimes they would get irritated but I always told them that they have to get use to it if they want to become professional surfers. Now they’re living that dream, a dream that “only a surfer knows the feeling.” I’m so proud of you boys!

Wintery days continue.
