No school today at Tomihi. Instead I will have school on Saturday for their open house for departing junior high schoolers. I spent the morning cleaning and rearranging my apartment. I bought a “rug” that goes under my kotatsu and a cushion for sitting on. Ended up tweaking my bedroom and living room area. Much happier with the change. I ended up having a leisurely day with painting (need to add some décor) and watching tv. I want to buy some watercolors too.

I went to the bakery that Ichigo-sensei took me to before. It’s about a 10 minute walk from my place. I bought some real bread! And lunch: a mushroom/cheese bun and a hedgehog bun that had delicious chocolate pudding inside. I’m addicted. On the walk home, I took the long way through some back roads and paths. Starting to build a good map of the area in my head. So many farms!
