I'll meet the deadline

I am at the spa again. My little trip last month was so good that I booked it as soon as I got back. One of the reasons was that at that time the infection situation in Japan had calmed down. Now that the Omicron strain has started to be confirmed in the big cities, I don't know when I will have this opportunity again. So I'll take even more pleasure in the joy. After a soak in the hot spring, I spent the evening in my room relaxing, concentrating on addressing my family New Year's cards and knitting.

The domestic postal service will deliver your cards on New Year's Day if you post them before the 25th. The card needs to be clearly labelled as 年賀: New Year's card or it will be delivered before the year's out! I don't think this applies to mail from outside the country.

P.S. I'm planning to introduce the kimono of Japan by Kimono Project before the end of the year, but I'm a bit nervous about the content and haven't made much progress.
