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 Abe shooting is not terrorism. This is a murder by grudge.
To call this a "subversion of the foundations of democracy" is completely misguided.
The nepotism symbolized by the "moricake" cherry blossoms, the domination of the media by candy and whip,
the countless lies in the Diet, the falsification of official documents, and the privatization of the judiciary and prosecutors. This is nothing but "destruction of democracy with separation of powers.

It is still fresh in our minds that the Kan administration, which succeeded the Abe administration, also had nine cabinet ministers connected to the Unification Church. The LDP government and the Unification Church （, now ・ the United World Peace Coalition ）, are inseparably linked, and the roots of their financial power go back to Shinzo Abe's grandfather, Nobusuke Kishi.

Basically, you can talk about anything, but be careful not to give out personal information.

I think people like Nichika are suited for the nursing profession.
Good luck. Agents are reassured to have someone like you ！ too.

I also feel that people like you, Nichika-san, are suited not only for nursing jobs, but also for jobs that involve taking care of people, such as child care workers. However, please be careful, because I think such people are more likely to be liked and used in a good way by temporary staffing agencies, for better or worse.

People who don't know the field do the scheduling and support, which is terrible, terrible... but on the other hand, I feel like it can't be helped because they don't know. But on the other hand, I feel like it can't be helped because they don't know. Care givers are unusually detailed people who are detailed, and those who are split between the two do the bare minimum. I think it's best to keep the detailed people to the time they take care of themselves and not be too detailed about other care givers. Each of us has a different way of thinking and doing things, so it's natural that we don't always get what we want.

I heard one thing I don't like from a care giver today.
In my opinion, it was something that seemed to go both ways.

Question.
There is a section of care that includes talking to the patient, but to be honest, it is painful.
I can handle most of the care except for talking to them without any problems.
Since they are not my family or friends, I don't let them go every day, we don't have anything in common, and I don't know what to do ......
I am a caregiver. Am I a disqualified care giver?
Should I quit?

It's hard if there is a section in your care called "talking to" and you are starting to have difficulty with that.
I don't think you need to think too much about it.
There are other things that are important and should be prioritized.
You can think of it as
a person to talk to = filling in a gap
and if you don't have anything to talk about, then it's not a problem. If we don't have anything to say, there is a good chance that they don't have anything to say either.
