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.

Hi everyone
Nice to meet you.
The reality of former Prime Minister Abe's state funeral expenses is gradually coming to light, what do you think about 1.6 billion yen ?
It will go up more.

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 mother is using her own money to donate to the cause, and the son is trying to control it, which is strange in itself. And since you can't kill the mother who is the object of your grudge, it is hard to forgive the culprit for using Mr. Abe as a distraction from his own emotional woes by making it difficult. And if anyone should be sympathetic, it's Akie-san.

ackie too, but i feel sorry for the 94 year old mom
she probably never thought her son would pass before her 94 year old self.
There is nothing worse than being predeceased by a child, for whatever reason.

I don't feel sorry for Akki. I understand your daughter, but she is insane and likes to do whatever she wants, and I don't know what she does behind the scenes. I love Korea ! Thank you for declining to run !
A mother has a responsibility to raise her children properly, especially minors. Especially when they are talented and had a future like him.

I know it must be hard for your mother, but I'm sure she's thinking about her successor right now. She seems to be quite a strong woman. Of course it must be hard for Akki too. He lost his longtime companion. But I think he will do whatever he wants more from now on.

It is a clear fact that the Moon Myung Moon Unification Church is an anti-Japanese cult
that has been exploiting the Japanese people in a tête-à-tête manner and has taken revenge on Japan
in a profoundly conspiratorial manner.
And Abe's LDP, which has been working hand in hand with it for many years.
That means Shinzo Abe is an anti-Japanese pirate.
He was given a state funeral ?.

Thank you for all you do for caregivers. Some of the posts seem to be heartless, but please don't let it bother you, as it is a great light for families of caregivers like mine who need care.
I have been using a temporary staffing agency because there are many problems between individuals. I am somewhat aware of the difficult relationship I have with the temp agency.
This week was the last day of the care giver that my mom (and I, of course) loved so much. I had the impression that this care giver was taken away from us because of the way the office schedule was set up, and I was really disappointed.
At the end, the care giver told us that she would like to come back someday, and if her schedule allows, she would be happy to sub for us.
I can't write your name for personal information, but thank you so much.

It's not uncommon for people to choose a job because it's rewarding.
I don't think it's pretty at all.
If you think that satisfaction is the best ! thing you can do, because in a way you could say you're being selfish. You can't do it by volunteering, so you're getting paid for the work you choose to do.
That's the same with any job, and most people do.
Even in a job of your own choosing, there will be some stress and problems.
That's why we keep and quit our jobs.
