You can hear the voice recording for the diary.
妻の実家に行く途中、衣料品店に寄って座布団を買った。
We bought a cushion at a clothes shop on the way to my inlaw’s house.
新婚時代に買ったものをずっと使い続けてきたが、長男ができ、その上を動くようになって、汚いと思い新しいのを買うのを決めた。
The old cushion we bought about 6 years ago when we started living together was worn down and we wanted to replace it for our child.
持ち帰って比べてみると、今使っているものより倍以上の厚さだった。
I compared both of them at home and the thickness of the new one is more than double.
古い方はだいぶくたびれたと思う。
I realized again that the old cushion had become flatter.
とはいえ、エジプトにいる間は、ほとんど使っていなかったので、正味数年といったところだと思う。
Though we have been using the old one, we had not used it when I was in Egypt. So, we actually have used it for about a few years.
ここまで使えば十分だろう。
I think we could recover the expense.
To be continued.
