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.

The former Unification Church is a fraudulent organization

"Write everything on the pledge, everything from cars, to buildings, rice fields, fields everything." In Okinawa, they encourage military land sales.

Cabinet reshuffle disguised as renewal, actually still a sticky relationship with the Unification Church.
Stop Abe's state funeral and get along with the LDP ・ Make it a joint Unification Church funeral.
Of course, Kishida. I'm not complaining about it ！.

Abe simply stayed in power too long"
"And when he got tired of it, he threw it out twice for his own reasons"
"If you compare merits and demerits, the sins are overwhelming"
"A politician who should be put on trial"
"The number one tax-wasting prime minister by far"
"Even in death, he still wastes money ？"
According to a Bunshun survey, 80% of the public opposes Abe's state funeral.
Most other surveys, including Kyodo News, showed that a majority of the public opposes the national funeral.
Even NHK, the government's official broadcaster, showed more opposition than approval.
Only Yomiuri NNN, the government's mouthpiece, is more in favor than opposed.
Even so, Kishida's LDP is now a completely anti-Japanese, anti-people government.

I also have an early morning shift at night ～ and although I have a bed ready and it looks like I can sleep, I almost never do.
This is because they go to the bathroom three times during the night and I am afraid they will fall there.
I want them to call out to me, but many of them don't.
I am right next to you, so please don't hesitate to call out to me.

I think I'd like to go to the bathroom alone, but I guess even people who need care have that feeling ？.

It depends on the family's wishes and the condition of the individual. If there is a request for assistance with toileting, we will do our best to do so. Even if the person thinks he/she is fine, it is often not the case. Especially during the night, the risk of falling due to drowsiness or tangled legs is high and it is really dangerous. For those who are concerned about privacy, we sometimes leave the bathroom and wait by the door when they are doing their business. This client usually has a limp and has fallen several times.

The #150 is not an experienced care giver, is it? I thought it was an opinion that someone who doesn't know the field might have. Care givers know best how it feels to go to the bathroom alone. There are a lot of clients who are reserved, don't want to be bothered to ask for help, and feel that they can handle it.

Caregivers are there for their clients and have experience. It's not something that a third party who doesn't know any better would simply say to those who work hard to care for them, "You want to go to the bathroom by yourself ！, don't you?
We do this because it is necessary, including caregiving and toileting care. I don't follow clients who can go alone into the bathroom, but I do care for many of my elderly clients.
That is the caregiver. It is the able-bodied person who can be left alone because they would probably prefer to go alone.
