Yes, yes, every day it’s a storm of moving things, signing contracts, and canceling them. I’m getting used to it more and more.
This is a delivery blog with no particular excitement. It should wrap up in just a few more deliveries. It’s taking more trips than I expected. In the end, boxes are easy, but “heavy items that can’t be stacked” —that’s what I realized is the bottleneck. Even with this Town Ace van, I can’t use the full volume, and that’s sad to feel. So today, let’s go!
For a moment, didn’t you think it might be the perfect vehicle for a transporter? If only it weren’t an electric vehicle…
When I go to Chiba, I always head there from Oi-Minami via the Shuto Expressway Wangan Line. There’s a yellow bike base just before that. If the timing is right, you can spot them.
And then I buy fresh vegetables and eggs at Aisaihata on the way back
It’s perfect to get a wide variety of salad vegetables in small portions. If you love vegetables, I think it’s worth a visit. Aisaihata
The in-store dining is very ordinary (*´ω`*)
Top-load washing machine for me! Gas dryer for me!
The layout was so rough that I felt pretty sad. Is this kind of raising okay?
The drainage work is also pretty rough, and… it makes me sad. For now, once we move, I want to clean it up properly.
It’s very sleek and I felt the design was quite excellent. I think I replace my washing machine about once every five years…
No matter how nice the machine is, dirt accumulates inside even with dry cycles. Even the ones that claim to be hole-free and clean didn’t work out. I’d like to use one for a long time. The other day I found a semi-commercial type, but the price was so unreasonable that I gave up.
Things like this are probably going to keep getting more expensive from now on —that’s what I’m feeling keenly.
The washing machine was being delivered around 2 p.m., so I went grass cutting and got lost
When the slope (embankment) is full of weeds, it looks shabby. And the weeds encroach on the lawn, so I set out on a trip thinking I’d quickly cut the grass with a hammer knife mower,
and “the soil was muddy, I got stuck and flipped over.”
The image is after I righted it, but it completely flipped sideways, and my wife and I managed to get it upright together. The hammer knife mower has its carburetor on the left side. If it flips to the right, gasoline rushes into the engine all at once and the engine won’t start at all.
At first it got so heavy I couldn’t even crank it, so I was pretty panicked.
After cranking a million times, the engine finally started with white smoke pouring out. When ground conditions are bad, it’s better not to use it in weird places.
I’m going to readjust the shelf dimensions (*´ω`*)
Apparently I wasn’t using it quite right, so “So close! That’s not it!” That’s how I’m taking apart all the wood. The number of tapping screws I’m using is unreasonable, so I’m getting a bit tired…
But without shelves, I can’t organize the boxes, so I want to handle this soon.
As expected, even though it was so spacious, once you start putting things in, it gets narrower and narrower.
I realized I need to get rid of more and more unused items. Everyone should do a little decluttering at the right time.
So Monday had pretty iffy weather. I’ll be in Tokyo for about two more weeks. I want to get to a point where both home and factory moves are done and I can focus just on organizing.
Every time I come back, I’m surprised at how spacious this shop actually is. Once we move to Chiba, probably less work = fewer bikes in storage = more beautiful space Since I’m doing this solo, a reasonable amount is good. Like with food, “the amount you can eat deliciously is what matters” —that’s something I’ve come to feel as I’ve gotten older.
