I wanted to leave Japan with some unique Japanese furniture and last Thursday the opportunity presented itself at a Bazaar. We bought a jewelry box, a tonsu and a bar. The woman selling the furniture told us that the brass on the bar is over 100 years old, a lotus and promotes peace and harmony. I figured that was the only way to get happy drunks in the house.

I ended up pushing the bookcase over and putting the cat tree in front of the window. The next place we rent won’t be nearly as small (I’m crossing my fingers).

I put the Tonsu in the office. Another guest bed will eventually go there, but until then, the boys have a new toy.

We’ve been here since November of 2006 and we’ll probably leave between Nov. of ‘08 and Feb. of ‘09.
