We started the morning by watching my “Japanese mom” on Shop Channel. Sachi-san, who is the leader of the private volunteer group we joined, is a designer and is selling her designs through Shop Channel a few times a year. She calls herself Johan’s “Japanese mom” because she is the same age my “Swedish mom” is, around 45 or so 😉

We usually don’t watch Shop Channel but we make an exception when Sachi-san is on. It is quite interesting to watch and a bit shocking of how fast her designs are sold out – every 2-5 minutes there is a ping and a “Sold Out” sign, and someone saying e.g. “the grey one-piece in L size is sold out.”

Once all the things were sold out Chie and I got to work. Today was cleaning day and we made a through cleaning of the whole apartment. We also changed dress for the sofa, from casual grey year-around dress to stylish red Christmas dress. Some other Christmas decoration were also brought from storage along with a Santa that I bought on my last business trip to Sweden. Our home is now ready for Christmas 🙂
