What did you do last week?

      


Doug
 : 
Got my international driver’s license.

Also great news after quarterly hospital visit.

 

     

                            

Excuse me, where is counter 31?         

And I took Pao for his rabies shot.

                             

 


       

                               
Sugimoto : I visited Yamada-san and gave her a headset. She wears hearing aids and is overly sensitive to ambient noise. The headset has noise canceling. We had a Zoom meeting and confirmed the operation. Yamada-san wanted a virtual background, but her iPad didn't support it.

I also had to help 3 people with their computers. I needed to study up on the solutions.

I also watched the baseball world classic for 4 hours every day.

Also, sumo starts today.


 

                               

Tatsui : I found a small animal in my garden. A raccoon dog (tanuki) I think. This is the first time to see one in my garden.



                 
                                   


                                    
Rosalie & Myles : We did a lot of shopping since we needed to stock up again.

We watched travel shows about bicycling around Japan. They covered travel to Nijima and Hachijyoujima. They used quarry stone from volcanic rock for house siding.

We also saw a long program about sumo in Japanese. It was quite cool, but we didn't quite follow everything. 

We also called a show called "72 Hours" on NHK. It was very good. It was about standup drinking shops.



                    
Cathy : I took another picture to show you.

Even with snow on the ground birds are still visiting the parking lot.

Daylight Savings Time will start at 2:00 am.

                                               




                            



                            

Akie : Last week a public health nurse came to visit me. I told the public nurse about my condition and problems.

Finally I got 300 points for PayPay cashless payments.

During the WBC (world baseball classic) they played music and I thought it was strange because it was tragic music about the separation of lovers.

 



Yamada : Yesterday Sugimoto-san brought me this headset. I tried it this morning. First I took out my hearing aid. It's better than my hearing aid. The voices sound natural.

I tried various tests.

 


                            
Uchida : I made shoe horns from bamboo. I also made canes from bamboo. I've already made 20 canes. In stores canes can cost more than $1,000, but my canes are free!

                




Sanae : On Sunday and Wednesday, there was practical training for helpers.  

On Monday, Teijin staff came to change the CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) for sleep apnea.

On Wednesday, staff came to check the emergency call system - the button used to call an ambulance in an emergency.

Home-visit dentistry on Thursday,  home-visit medical care on Friday. 

And I went shopping at Lumine by bus yesterday. There was 10% off!

 

 

                                                                          

 

     
 



A pastor was late to church when he passed a golf course.

No one was there, so the pastor skipped the service and took one shot. Surprisingly, he scored a hole-in-one.

One angel said to another, "Who gave a hole-in-one to a pastor who skipped worship?”

.

.

 

The other  angel answered, "This is punishment because he can't tell anyone about it."
