Home Mortgage

These few months, my darling and I have been busy looking for a new home. The reason is simple. We have been renting our room for 7 years which could have spent on paying off our home mortgage!!! Plus, in Japan, you have to pay money every time you renew your contract for the rent. This is so wasteful.

To tell the truth, it is not easy to find a perfect home because the real estate prices are fixed. In other words, there is no property with a good deal. We started off looking for a new house far from the station and ended up renovating used condo near the station. The condos over 25 years don't qualify for a tax deduction for home mortgage, but you have no choice for a roomy house. There is always more to learn...

Anyway, I have one condo under consideration. I have a lot of paperwork to get through...

Good luck to me!!!

Brass Band Reunion

Last Friday, I met my brass band friends and the teacher from high school. It has been more than 10 years to get together. It all started with my wedding stuff. I really never see them again unless I look for my old friends' contact info, you know!!!

Interestingly, we haven't changed in a time span of a decade. We all flashed back to our high school days and talked the same as at the time. What a fun time! By talking with them, I went back to basics and felt motivated :D

I know we all are busy, but it is nice sometimes. I hope my wedding will offer a good opportunity for everyone.

Anyway, I hate this high humidity. It is raining from the morning and I feel very drowsy all day long.

Gonna have some coffee! Bye for now!!!

MandraRossa Grecanico

Grecanico is a native Sicilian grape which produces a complex, aromatically defined white wine with citrusy fruit character.

I seldom drink white wine but I bought this wine since it was recommended at 980yen ($10) last weekend.

It was a sweet-scented tasty white wine! I bet red wine lovers would like it!!! So do I :D
