A pickle of oat in the pretty bum
Well, this is the last week I have to spend at work before leaving for the big trip.
Things are veeery calm at the moment. Way too calm, I would say.

This last weekend I visited my family in Debrecen. I especially wanted to visit them before my departure, as grandma does not look good at all. Her condition is getting worse week by week and I am not sure at all that I can see her alive again. I wish I could be there then. Anyhow, half of my mind will be with her during the trip. I love her so much, she is the best grandma one can have - an angel.
This week is dedicated to not leave anything at loose ends and to complete everything for the time when I will (hopefully) return.
Also, I am receiving not only orders but also money for outdoor tabi - so Gem of All Kungfu Masters, if you happen to read this, be prepared for having gotten rid of some tabi, which currently mess up your apartment :)
The current heat-wave is helping me in the preparation process: just like at most places in Europe, it's been terribly hot here int he past two weeks. The temperature is over 35 Celsius and I've just read that in addition a great humidity is just to come in the next few days. Anyway, I take it as a training for the climate in Japan.
This much heat that lasts for such a long time is very strange in this area. But in general, the whole year's weather has been extraordinarily strange in the past 9 months. It went crazy. Last week for example we had days with hails. The hailstones were as big as a cherry and the last one this Saturday lasted for about 20 minutes. It destroyed all the fruits that grandpa had: grape, peach, apple, everything.
As the time of my departure is approaching that pickle of oat is hurting my bum more and more. The more I fly the more I am scared of it. I would feel much safer in a jet plane, really. I hope you guys will recognize my bravery and the sacrifice I bring now: shivering in fear during the whole trip :)) hehehe. I think I'll knock myself out with some natural tranquilizer for a few hours so that I can at least sleep a bit on the plane. But see the good side: I have the highest class insurance, so at least my family gets a nice sum if anything happens :)
*sigh* anyway, enough of rambling, time to go and get the presents for some friends in Japland :)

Take as many of the tabi as you want!!!
I just hope I have enough of the sizes you want...
See you in a couple of days,

OKay. It's not so many tho, so don't expect to get rid of hundreds of pairs :) Just a few, like 6-8 pairs. But it's still something :)
Checking ur site it seems that you've run out of one of the sizes I needed, but we'll see it there.
Btw, you still have a few days to take up the street before I arrive :)
