The Week #223
by- ๐ถ Sophie is getting old and has started developing a number of what could be balls of fat or could be something more serious. One in particular was worrying because it was on her stomach had gotten rather large. Left untreated it could result in her intestine going places it shouldn't. This week she went in to the doctor for surgery to confirm if these blobs were fat or cancer (and remove them). Good news is, it wasn't cancer. Sophie will be wearing a cone while she recovers. To a long and healthy life!
On the "Japanese is hard, even for the natives" front, Yumi told one of her Japanese archery friends about the results "it was only a shibou (fat)" and her friend overacted because she understood shibou with its other meaning, "death" ๐คฃ. - ๐ฒ I went and picked up my matcha green Brompton. I had visions of a sunny New Bike Day which would enable me to ride around Minatomirai and take sweet photos of it to share. Unfortunately it was raining, so it went into my bike bag and I carried it around.
The Brompton was fine to carry around, but after a while it got to be a bit heavy. Which makes sense, it's a bike. It's meant to be ridden and carried from the gates of a station and into a train. It's not meant to be lugged around for an hour.
The next day I rode it to our local Ito Yokado with Leo. The small wheels and the riding position make it feel like it's an extension of your legs. What I mean by that is it seems like the perfect bike for last mile transport, which makes sense as that's what it was designed for. - ๐โโ๏ธ Technically last week, but Leo passed his test at swim class! For one reason or another he's failed or not taken the test for the past...what feels like 6 months. He's excited he passed and I think having this opportunity to have to work to overcome and succeed is good for his overall character development.ย Even better is he's resumed taking the bus to swim class by himself, letting him build up his independence.ย
- ๐โโ๏ธ I maintained my run debt with 2 runs this week. The cooler weather is fantastic and I think I'm close to getting back to the mental state to bring my runs back to 3x a week, enabling me to get fully out of run debt. I'll make that my goal for October: get out of run debt.
