futon

One thing we wanted from MIL’s was the futon that we used whenever we slept over at her house. 

It is older (and heavier) than what we have but it is in better condition than what we have.

Since we were getting together with BIL and fam on Saturday, we went to Kyoto (really) early on Friday, packed up the futon and called the takkyubin (home delivery) guy to see if he could pick them up for delivery.

He could but it would be sometime late in the afternoon!

Since MIL’s water is turned off, staying and waiting around for the guy would be out of the question especially with no access to a toilet!

The futon would also need to meet the size that they accept, so we had to wrap it with tape to make it the right size

So we called for a taxi and asked the guy to drop us off with the futons, a couple of Satoshi’s bats & Kat’s Mount Fuji climbing stick at the takkyubin service center.

The futons, climbing stick and bats were delivered Sunday.

You should have seen the takkyubin guy carry both futon bags up at once!

The futon bags took up our entrance! (see the photo above)

This was the space I made for the futon in our other room.

Since we brought in the plants before going to Kyoto, for the upcoming typhoons, we don't have much space left in this room...

Hopefully I can rearrange our "stuff" and get rid of some other “stuff” to clean things up in the coming days.

Oh and the plants should be going back outside soon too.
