@ダンテ- Dante Alighieri Awesome! Thank you for a message. You know…it’s hot here but no humidity. That’s why it will cause the wild fire. We are now very careful about that. It’s sunny everyday till October. They say “the blue sky in California”. Let’s have a nice time together on GS! with smile 😊

@がっちゃん I feel so,too. By the way, I visited to the senior facility which I am interested in. …?? You know … still they are very senior(how can I describe). They treat me like their daughter…something like that. I had a nice time with a estate sales lady for a while. 🤞 I felt it’s to soon to move there. I may change my idea from now~ ‘Life, we have only one time,I hope I will have a nice life from now~’ My roses in my garden say “🙇🏻♀️ pls be with us!”. 😄 Have a good weekend!
@がっちゃん I have got your meaning well. That’s right. Probably it’s too early to get there. She(sales person) said “average of this place is 82.5 years old”. I was surprised with that. That’s you gave me a point! Thank you. I will go back to think about my way. ~~~again. How is your day? It the weekday~ 👍 3 Takes. always see you.
@がっちゃん Sounds good! 🤞 I saw your posted photos with your comment. Lovely Your tow son’s birthday is one day difference!

I will go for tomorrow 👍 Nice to talk to you today. See you tomorrow! with our smiles 😊
@がっちゃん Thank you. I will have a Doc. Appointment later. Just they use the camera to see my stomach. 👍 Not now. Two months later. fine I saw your photos with your messages. Awesome ! You go out to get your beers & Shochu. How nice! Life is good. LG Nice to talk to you. See you tomorrow. Have a great day! 😊😊
@がっちゃん 👍 me too! When I stay in Japan, I will go back to my normal cocktail = Beer & Shyouchu. ☝️#1 Last time I wrote wrong spelling. “SATO-KURO”! That’s my favorite Shyouchu. My place to go, they have it. Beer…’Asahi Super Dry’,too. …backing to 1980s~ I played golf(Tokyo Golf Club)…still I remember ~. When we were at #19(finished golf and have a cocktail)…the manager came up and said “we have just have got a nice beer from ASAHI”. We tasted one! It was great! (Korewa ikeruna~), my great friends told about this beer. 💫 how long a go~ 1987~I still love this beer the best😋 …long talk… lovely story about cocktail See U later😊
@がっちゃん It came from Satsuma. Impressed The first Shyouchu was(for me)…I do not remember ~. “Takara”? They started with “Lemon-hai” Ms.Matsuda Seiko came up to the commercial. 🤫 I had cocktails for the first time, I was 16 years old.🤫 Only the time when I went to tennis club staying and ski staying time(my mother did not know anything)👍 Enjoyable …lovely since that time… Lots of nice experiences! You,too~ 😊 Have a nice Saturday with your family. See U later.
@がっちゃん “huhu~”🎶 I was with my first person (hatstukoi no hito) and had a cocktail(a little). He was a college student(M. University/Law) …in those days(high school period)I was with him all the time. Everyday ~ 💕😊 Sorry I talked too much 😅 How is your day? Not so hard, yeah?! I have got nice news about your working situation from now. Happy 👊let’s go for today&tomorrow! 😊

@がっちゃん That’s right. Doing only desk work for 8 hours…it’s hard~well lots of people do and have their income. It depends on how much we like or we will be ok to work for ~. When I used to be a translator & interpreter,I was more eager to go for interpreter than translator. Because active/to see people and communicate. Instead of sitting at my study for 5~6 hours(max for me) to do my task. However…income…it was important for me in those days(1990s). I have done well completely. You also ~. No worries. just the way what you are. 👍 Ok~ I will lay down now~slight stomachache now. ‘ll talk to you later.
@がっちゃん I do understand your feelings. You are an elite salaryman. I am proud of you. Age…(toshi niwa katenai) monodesu. I really felt this recently. I woke up in the morning, I wanted to look for a had bag to have this morning to go out. I just step on the chair and tried to find one. Suddenly I was fell down from the chair….🥴.

Comfortable!? Make a day off plan ~👍 I will see you later. 😊
@がっちゃん That’s right. I missed to tell you. Yes. After taking shower, I will have a cold champagne 🍾 Thinking of my meals for the night. I like cooking so much. Yesterday I made Japanese ‘nimono’.

You know…because I am a good cook! 😀 How is your day? Weekend ~ Nice day together!
