Happy New Year, Laura!!!!
When I lived in Australia (short-term exchange student June-Sept) many, many MANY moons ago, the water closet was separate from the sink & bath as well. In the older & newer houses as I recall.
My family has always had people take their shoes off as they come in...it's always been our habit. It's definitely tied to tracking so much dirt & crud in & all around! Not the slipper thing though.
'My relax time' is that the Japanese English?
So how do you get along with the in-laws? and how are things going with you & M? Well I hope!
Hey, I got your New Year's postcard today!!! thank you! :) :) :)
*hugs*
Re: Happy New Year, Laura!!!!
ooh you lived in Aussie? I'm jealous! that must have been awesome!
I wish that my parents would get into the habit of not wearing shoes inside, but they're older now and it's harder for them. I never wore shoes inside though after I lived in Japan.
yes, you caught the Japanese English!
I get along fine with my in-laws, but wish I could communicate more (I'm working on my Japanese). M's dad is very quiet, but he's generous and kind. and M's mom is always trying to make me happy, and teaching me stuff. she's lovely. Things with M are going good right now. He has a possible job lead for after the holidays, so that's very good news.
oh I'm so glad you got my postcard!! yay:)
Happy New Year!!! and *big hugs*
