I got up just before 5 in the morning. My day started listening to World News on NHK Satellite TV. A big flood in western Australia is quite a disaster. And BBC reported increasing the rate of VAT ( value added tax) to 20% in UK. Financial crisis is not only in UK but almost every country in the world. In Japan, prime minister Kan often speaks of raising the consumption tax. He says, without securing tax revenue increase, he can't guarantee keeping the government's welfare policy. Do we have to agree with him? Maybe.
I went to a bank with my wife, Ayako, to send some money to our old daughter living in Sapporo. Then, my wife went home, and I, alone, walked for an exercise as far as Kawazoe, and returned home after about an hour.
We took lunch, but most of the food we ate were the leftovers of the family New Year party with our two daughters' families, who had returned to Sapporo on January 3.
This evening, the dinner will be roast mutton, so-called "jinngisukan".
