Rusty
Could you hear that creaking noise? That was the sound of the rusty gate of my brain being opened. It was so rusty I wasn't sure that I could even open that poor gate. Parting of getting back to normal meant heading back to Japanese class. I felt very rusty. That's ok, because I am there to learn.
It was nice to see everyone again. Before I could leave the door, though, I had to proofread three English articles. I am not sure how I became the resident English proofreader in the class, but I am. I guess of the English speakers in the class I just happen to be the one who has been there the longest.
The surprise of the day was that Skyler's shoes...yeah...they don't fit. It seems like I just bought him shoes, but I guess now that I think about it it has been a little while since I bought those pairs of shoes. I try to keep both a pair of indoor and outdoor shoes for him. However, the shoes that he got the middle of summer...no, they shrank too. What gets me is that just when you think you have them in the right size, blink, it changes. I guess that is the nature of growing kids. I have a whole collection of shoes for Tomo when he decides to skip shoes sizes here and there.
