I am a recent immigrant to the US.
I posted here because I had some questions.
Thank you very much.

I went to HOME DEPOT to buy what is called "petit petit sheet" in Japan and "bubble wrap" in the US
.

I found two kinds of petit petit wrap there,

① 3.93ft × 5.90ft(120cm × 120cm)

② 12'' × 100'


① have centimeter notation and are easy to understand, but

② have only this notation, with two commas on the 12 and one on the 100.
Sorry, I just came from Japan and this kind of notation is still new to me.

How many centimeters is this in centimeters × How many centimeters does this mean ？

Please let me know if you know.
Thank you very much.

The topic for the elderly is gone, so I created it again.

I am a late senior citizen and have been participating in this vivinavi since

2014 when Mr. Cobalt was the broadest member, but there seem to be many elderly people here

and I hope to have a blooming conversation about health and any topic of retirement life.

I wrote about my experience with Wise in the topic ？, but no matter how many times I put it up, it is not published. I think it is not good from Vivinavi's point of view ？.
I'm not a Wise person, but 、、、、 (^ ^;)
Please DM me if you would like to know the details of your experience using Wise. I will send you what I was going to post.

Zip code 100-9999

2505 Ohama, Kagura, Kanagawa － 1

Hanako Suzuki


The above is a fictitious address, but I need to write my parents' address in Japan for business here in America
. For example, is the following correct for this address ？


HANAKO SUZUKI

2505 － 1 OHAMA

KAGURA, KANAGAWA, JAPAN


Is this correct ？

Ohama ＝ Ohama ＝ OHAMA, can I use one O instead of two ？

Also, is it necessary to write the prefecture or city ？

If so, would it be "KANAGAWA-KEN" or "KAGURA-SHI" in romaji ？

or would it be "KAGURA-CITY"? KAGURA-CITY" ？

Anyway, it is all right if the mail is delivered, but I don't know how to express it, so please tell me.
Please do.

Passport application after naturalization in the U.S.

We have Oath scheduled for this month for both of our spouses and plan to apply for passports immediately afterwards.
We would like to apply for passports for our children （ ages 12 and 14 ） but of course they do not have proof of naturalization, so we will be using the parents' naturalization certificates that came back from their passport applications.
Arrangements are in progress for ordering and translating the family register.
All family members cannot apply for passports at the same time ？
Please advise me if you have any experience applying for passports after naturalization.

Why is it that when people mourn the death of Mr. Abe, they are related to the Unification Church ？
Have you been watching the old media too much ？
According to Yoshif Arita, who did nothing himself but is very active on the airwaves this time,
Mr. Abe was an enemy of the Unification Church since 2006.

By the way, I personally hope that Japan will end its relationship with the peninsula
as much as possible in the future, because it is not good for Japan to be involved with the peninsula
and that's why Mr. Abe died.

In the meantime, I hope the old media will take this opportunity to beat them to death, spread their name and let them know the problem so that we can prevent Japanese victims from being ripped off by the peninsula in the future


In addition, I hope the old media's biased reporting will finally be known.
I hope they will take this opportunity to expose the bias of the old media and the anti-Japanese leftist movement
that is leaning toward the peninsula, and use this as an opportunity to expose them.

If you studied at a college, of course the salary is good, but if you are at the lowest level, the salary is not so bad ？

In the end, the salary is not so high. If people are complaining about low pay or hard work, why don't they just get a different job?

I think my body clock is confused because I am taking care of her with a combination of day and night shifts. Even though I am stressed and have a lot of difficulties, I still want to take care of them. Caregiver, please don't say sad things like annoyance. I am just a care giver, but I care about each and every client.
I don't know your age, but when the time comes for someone to take care of you, please don't think of me as a nuisance.

However, I too have a desire to pass away suddenly.
In case that doesn't happen, when the time comes for me to be taken care of by someone else, I try to make it easier for them to take care of me. I think about things like, "What if I don't?
