Good excuse for not flying to Japan

This was the coin that gave us the headache regarding the washing machine. It got stuck somewhere
near the coil and interfered with the spinning mechanism. The technician retrieved the coin and everything was fine. It cost me $60 and lots of inconveniences for that simple retrieving task.
Anyway, I had to wait for the technician this morning and so had the excuse of not going with my wife to Japan. She is visiting her parents. Flying or travelling is not my cup of tea, after all I've been flying for 35 years prior to my retirement. I prefer to stay at home.
The pictures (below) were sent to me today.
