Turns out the mild weather in Kentucky was not a good thing to be exposed to before coming back to Japan during December. I was spoiled by the temperatures and by my parent's fully heated house the past two weeks. The chill in the air never seems to leave our apartment here in Oyama and a bike ride to the grocery today was a lot different than my car ride to Kroger last week.
I've known that I would need some new indoor hobbies during the winter season since I will be avoiding the cold. One of those will hopefully be knitting. Thank you Kerry for providing me with the beginning materials! I know absolutely nothing about knitting, which is evident by my many attempts to cast on, perform the knit stitch, and cast off. It took me five tries and well into the night to get anything but a knot. I'll be needing a lot of practice.
It's great to be back here with Drew but I will miss everyone back home. Make sure to keep in touch!
