A couple of our neighbors who have been very kind to us have returned to Japan permanently.
They asked me to forward their mail to my address and I have done so.
But I also have tax, Medicare, and other important mail.
Each time I send them to Japan, I wonder if there is a system to forward them directly to Japan ?

I wonder what I should do if I think the mail will keep coming for the rest of my life.
I made the mistake of agreeing to it so easily.

Please let me know.

Hi. I thought ! ! it's the same person ?.
I don't do online banking, I translated English letters for them, and of course I called them about subscriptions, cancellations, etc. I even took the time to make appointments for covid vaccine appointments for those over 65 years old. I was doing them a favor because I was taking care of them, but when there was a problem, they complained.
That's right. It takes up a lot of my time. I am a full time single mother and pressed for time. When I finally get back home, they want me to send them a postcard with a note.

but instead of going on and on
you need to break it up into periods just one year and find your own solution in that time.

Mr. Health Oriented
runny nose, mild throat oddities, i.e., in the early stages. I take my favorite of the supplements and go to bed for 2 hours.
When I woke up, I was cured and refreshed ! ! Experienced this on a trip to Japan in October.
I tried to sleep when I wanted to due to jet lag.
Everyone in Japan wears masks, I had long since gotten rid of mine in the US and hated the hassle.
For some reason, I have a bad cold once or twice a year (which takes a month to heal) and have not had a cold since 2020, when the corona epidemic started. I've been living my life with a good amount of masks and seeing people normally. He has stopped getting the vaccine after only two doses.
It really depends on the person.
Also, this is off-topic, but Seirogan is our family's one-shot cure-all for diarrhea.
It also helps with colds ? 🤔I'm sure it has licorice in it so it gives the body energy.
And my other 1-shot effect, my regular medicine is 🎉jaja~n
propolis.
This is a natural antibiotech and in ancient times sailors used to keep it handy.
When I use it, it is not a chronic disease, but once in 3 or 4 months, I have a bad pain like a nerve pain that tingles in my body
I just take one propolis tablet and I am cured in one shot.
It is also effective enough with the cheapest vitamin shoppe brand tablets in the vitamin shop (chain stores).
I think that the herpes bacteria resides in my body and comes out when I get tired ?.
I hope this helps 😊.

Thank you very much for introducing medicines for diverse diseases.

It may or may not work for some people, but it is all nodding my head.

This sounds like something I would write on a topic in my 70s, but unlike people who commute to work and school,

I have plenty of time, so I always try to do simple exercises

to avoid carrying colds and body problems on my back.

And the same goes for "eat and burn".

I can't remember how long ago I last had a cold.

Moving to another state after divorce (with joint custody)

Daily life

  • 離婚後

I have a question about moving to another state after divorce.
If a divorce is finalized in California and both ex-husbands and ex-wives share joint custody, and if both exes move to different states, will the rules of the joint custody arrangement, etc., apply in California where the divorce was finalized until adulthood? If so, will the rules of the joint custody arrangement, etc. be the same in California where the divorce was finalized until adulthood?

In the U.S., family laws seem to differ greatly from state to state, so in the unlikely event that the state to which the other party moves is more favorable to the other party, it would be disadvantageous if the rules in California are no longer applicable.

If anyone knows the situation, please let me know.

The MOU arrangement is not changed by state law, etc. I can't tell from this text what kind of custody arrangement was made, but if, for example, both Regal and Physical have joint custody, and the move makes it impossible to continue any kind of arrangement, then it may be necessary to file an amended version of the MOU with the court with the signatures of both parties agreeing to the new arrangement. If the move makes it impossible to continue any kind of arrangement, then an amended version of the MOU should be submitted to the court with the signatures of both parties. If both parties are not abiding by the agreement, there would be no way to appeal the validity of the MOU. Changes to the custody agreement may affect the amount of child support and other payments, depending on the standard of living in your area of residence.

If we build a factory in Mexico to make what we are making in China,
it would be convenient because we are connected by land.

If a factory is built in Mexico and employment is provided to Mexicans and people from Central and South America,

Ototto,

Certainly such a theory would hold true if one only looked at the map, but in reality there have been such moves in the past, including by Japanese manufacturers.

About 30 years ago, the now-defunct Sanyo Electric Co. started production of color TVs and small air conditioners by building a factory on the other side of the border. But then China emerged as the "world's factory" and the border business seems to have disappeared.

Now, I wonder what direction the world will take when this pandemic is completely over.

Even though China is rising and we have our eyes on them,
if we were making it in China, what we are doing and what we do don't mesh.
We need to think about getting out of China. Building a wall on the border will not reduce illegal immigration.
Now that $1.00 store items are now 25 cents on the dollar.

If it's not profitable to build it in the U.S. because of labor costs, etc.,
can't we come up with the idea of building it in Mexico?

waka,

To tell you the truth, I am also an electrician by nature and use a transformer instead of a transformer, but there are some people on this forum who are very aggressive in their opinions, and I was "uncharacteristically" concerned about that. For the time being, I recommended the use of a transformer. Modern home appliance manufacturers design and manufacture their products to meet safety standards that allow them to withstand use in hostile environments by their consumers. I would venture to guess that they test their products to ensure that they will not catch fire even if the power supply voltage fluctuates by up to 30% over a specific period of time.

Furthermore, even in cooking with heat, such as in electric kettles, the structure is now such that heat is obtained by passing a special radio wave through a special metal, and the radio wave is controlled by an electronic circuit that can automatically control the circuit even if the power line voltage changes significantly. Therefore, there will be no problem even if you use a product with a standard AC 100V input at 120V. However, there is always a "just in case" possibility, so please keep that in mind.

Sorry to get technical again, but in the past, electric cookers such as electric kettles used electric line voltage ( 115/120 volts ) in the US directly into a heat exchange material such as nichrome wire to obtain heat output. Today, however, the heat exchange material has been replaced by the "IH ( IH )" method.

https://www.itmedia.co.jp/fav/articles/2012/27/news021.html

This is the technical term for electric line power as mentioned above IH = Induction Heating ( Induction Heating ) converts the power into heat, specifically ( the power of a high frequency ) magnet applied to an iron pot to convert it into heat power. At any rate, the power of heat is obtained in a much safer way, not by mucking around with nichrome wire as in the old days.

So, to return to the main topic, the heat return device can handle large changes in line voltage, and at the same time, the manufacturers of these electric kettles and cookers have designed and endurance tested their products so that they will not be affected by a voltage of 125V or so applied to a Japanese voltage of 100V for a long period of time. I believe that these electric kettles and cookers are designed and tested repeatedly to ensure that they will not be affected even when subjected to voltages of around 125V for long periods of time.

As Mr. Doubokujinman said, as a safety test for products rated 100V, we have confirmed that there is no problem from a safety standpoint even if a voltage change of + -2 ~ 30% is applied to the product. However, the rated voltage in the U.S. is 120V, and it is necessary to consider that the voltage may vary by at least 20% above or below the rated voltage. Therefore, even if there is no problem for a short period of time, using a transformer with 120% of the rated voltage for a long period of time may increase the possibility of malfunctions. Therefore, I recommend the use of a transformer if possible. Hair dryers, futon dryers, etc., which generate a lot of heat, are especially dangerous because the heat generated is about 1 . 5 times higher and the temperature becomes too high. I use a transformer with a capacity of 1500W for futon dryers and microwave ovens. However, most electronic equipment such as TVs and PCs are rated at 100 ~ 230V, so a transformer is not necessary. Since it is difficult to obtain a transformer with a large capacity in the U.S., I order one from Amazon.com in Japan. I am not familiar with the design of IH cookers ( and the latest electric kettles ), so I cannot comment on what happens when a 100V product is used at 120V. However, IH heaters on the tabletop (1000W, 100V) seem to be working fine so far without a transformer. ( The time is so short ? it's a risk when it will fail. )

I use a transformer for my hair dryer
but not my 1000W induction heater ( lol )

I would like to buy a washlet, do you have any recommendations ?
I know there are various cheap and expensive ones, but I don't need the function to heat the seat, but I would like to be able to adjust the temperature between water and hot water.
Also, where is the best place to buy one? ?
If I buy one from Amazon, I have to install it myself, and I'm wondering if it would be cheaper to buy one from a Japanese place.
Please let me know if you have any information.

PS

The Korean one looks surprisingly good.

> Many American bathrooms don't have outlets

Indeed.

I used my handyman's guts and wired both bathrooms to have outlets near the toilets. It would have cost several hundred dollars to have a contractor do it. I'm sure it's the same in other cities, but in the City of LA, only a Qualified Installer from the city can do the wiring for the power lines. The only time you will find this out is when you sell your house, and if the wiring ・ is installed according to city regulations, you won't notice any difference at all.

As someone else mentioned, heated toilet seats should always be included in all models. Now I can't sit on mine without a heated toilet seat anymore. I bought two models from Amazon, first a TOTO model with the control panel attached to the wall, and second a standard model with the control panel attached to the side of the toilet seat.

If you are just after price, you can find cheap Korean brand washlets at the larger Korean food markets.

I use something called Attachment Sprayer for Toilet Seat which can be purchased on Amazon for about $ 30. It does not provide hot water, and I had some reservations before using it, but I decided to give it a try and it has been two years now. It does not require a power supply, and the installation time is estimated to be about 20 minutes.

> Then I've been using a Taiwanese one for 9 years


Can you tell me the name of that brand and the price at that time?

If you've been using it for 9 years, it's not going to break the bank.


My TOTO has had it for 9 years and 4 years, but I fixed it myself when the old one started leaking from the base of the spray that extends when cleaning, slowly but surely. The city water supply sometimes has visible grains of sand mixed in, and it seems that this was getting caught in the spray washer.

The best place to look is on Offerup. I recently bought a Moen for $120. Toto has them for about $200. The question is whether you can install it yourself ? or whether you can properly check the contents and know that you have all the parts.
