Tidbits

One of our more recent, interesting purchases was to keep our coffee table from scratching the floor.  I assumed we would find some sort of felt pad to stick on the bottom of each foot.  Turns out, unsurprisingly, that Japan has something much more unnecessary than that.

No, these are not baby booties, Japan actually sells these little socks specifically to cover the feet of tables and chairs to prevent scratching.  They come in all different sizes and patterns.  Drew liked these blue ones the best.  I mean, I could really get carried away with changing these up for each season.  Now we can't help but find our little table to be cute and stylish.

We were also happy to find a Budweiser and some "American" popcorn in the grocery store Tuesday night to consume in honor of the election.  It just so happened that Drew's boss had an extra cake sitting around that Drew was sent home with as well.  Not a bad treat.

Now that it's getting dark out earlier and turning cold, my SAD seems to be kicking in. At least that it what I'm blaming it on. :)  As you may know, I hate the winter and the cold.  If it is a rainy or gloomy day on top of that I barely have enough motivation to get out of bed.  Blah!  It's much harder here while living in a tiny little space.  So far I haven't minded our one room apartment, but it may start driving me crazy when I'm stuck in here for gloomy days on end.  Guess I'll be picking up some new indoor hobbies soon.  Anyone want a hand knitted scarf for Christmas???
