やるぅ！ Great!

我が家は住宅エコポイント対象マンションで、15万ポイントが付与されました。
半分は東日本大震災被災地関連商品に使わなければならないのですが、半分は
カタログから選べます。
そこで我が家が選んだのは、ご存知ルンバ780！
そうお掃除ロボットです。
所詮はロボットだろ？的な感じの人が多いと思いますが、こいつスゴイっ！
ワシらが出勤した後に掃除をする様に設定して、リビング、キッチンを掃除して
もらってますが、マジで綺麗になってる。髪の毛とかも帰って来ると全然落ちて無い。
ダストボックスには、カーペット無くなるんちゃう？って位のゴミが入ってるんよ。
もし、購入を迷っている人がいるなら間違い無く買いでっせ！

My house is applicable for house ecology point so government gives me 150thouthand point.

We have to use half point for devastated area’s product of east Japan big earthquake, 2 years ago occurred and the other half point, we can choose from catalogue.

So! What I chose is Roomba 780!

Yes, it is cleaning robot.

You may think it is robot so it cannot clean enough but it is not!

He is really great!

I made setting he will automatically clean living and kitchen after we go out to job.

When we back to my house, we cannot find any dust and even hair so he is really cleaning up well.

After his cleaning, I open his dust box and always it is full of dust.

I think my rug will be disappeared because he will vacuum all of rug someday.

If someone waver to buy it or not, I really recommend you must buy!

で、出勤時はルンバ君がちゃんと掃除できる様にイスなどを上げて行きます。
When we go out to job, we lift up chair and etc for his clean up.

やっと Finally

我が家の家具、家電がやっと買い揃いちゃんと生活が出来る様に
なりました。
で、部屋はこんな感じになりました。
皆さん遊びに来てね。

Finally, I finished buying furniture and electric staff in my house so now I can live at my home as normal.

So my living room is like this.

Please visit and stay at my home.

I’m always waiting you, my friends!

ニトリで At Nitori

今日は有給休暇でお休み。そこで来客用の掛け布団を買いにニトリへ。
2年前、ミンが遊びに来た時に購入した2枚合わせ羽毛布団が、
非常に使い勝手が良いので、もう一枚購入しようとしていた布団売り場での出来事。
全く見ず知らずのオバさんが、ワシに話掛けて来て。

オバさん：もう大分暖かいから冬布団じゃ暑いよね～？

ワシ：そうですねぇ。

オバさん：でも、肌掛けでは寒いかなぁ。お客さんが来るのよ。

ワシ：それなら2枚合わせ羽毛布団が良いですよ。
　　　 これ、今私使っていて・・・。

オバさん：冬布団は有るのよ。

ワシ：いやいや、この布団は2枚に分かれるから、今時期なら2人で1枚づつ使えて
　　　 ちょっと高いけど便利ですよ。冬は2枚重ねて使えば十分暖かいし。
　　　 丁度、私もこれをもう一枚買う所です。

オバさん：あら、お客さん2人だから丁度良いわ、私もこれにするわ、有難う！
　　　　　　あなた店員さんみたいね。

というやり取りがありました。
別にニトリの廻し者では無いけど、全く見ず知らずのオバさんにワシのお勧め羽毛布団を
買ってもらい感謝までされるって、とっても気分が良かったので報告します。

Today, I got day off so I went to furniture store Nitori for buying quilt for guest.

2 years ago, when Min stayed at my house, I bought double feather quilt for him and it was quite useful so I wanted to buy one more same quilt.

This is story when I was in front of quilt in Nitori, stranger aunt started to talk to me.

Aunt: Nowadays getting warmer so winter quilt is too hot, right?

Me: Yes, you right.

Aunt: But summer quilt is little cold or not?

        Guest will be coming to my house.

Me: Oh! If you are wavering what you should buy, I would like to recommend you double feather quilt.

      I’m using this and….

Aunt: I already have enough winter quilts.

Me: No, No, you can separate this quilt so you can use this for 2 people nowadays season, little expensive but this is very useful.

      And in winter, you can lap the 2 pieces and use as one quilt and it is warm enough.

      You know, I’m also buying this one more now.

Aunt: Really! My guest is 2 people so this is good.

        I also will buy this. Thank you!

        You are like a shop staff.

We had this conversation.

I don’t get any benefit from Nitori but absolutely stranger aunt bought my recommending feather quilt and she thanks me a lot.

I got very good feeling and I think this is little funny story so I want to tell you.

腕時計 Watch

使っていた腕時計を半年前に無くしてしまい、次はゴッツイ奴がいいな。と思い
色々物色していたら見つけたのがこれ。
NIXON Chrono leather silver brown！
ナントこいつ300気圧防水！海に行かない俺には全く必要ないけどね。
最初は国内正規品を買おうと時計店に価格を確認すると￥50,400です。との事。
2ヵ月待ち「入荷しました。」との連絡が有り、価格は？と確認すると
￥48,000です。
あれ？￥50,400て聞いてましたけど？と言うと、
申し訳御座いません。価格間違ってました。￥60,900です。
ちょっと待てぇ～いっ！1万円も高くなってるやないかい！
でも値引きは出来ない。との事で、到底納得出来ないのでキャンセル。
でも、この時計どうしても欲しい・・・。という事で国内サポートを受けれないけど
並行輸入品の同モデルを購入。価格は3万2千円。

I lost my watch half years ago so I wanted to buy big one for next.

So I found this, NIXON chrono leather silver brown.

You know, this is 300m water proof but I don’t go to swim so it is absolutely too much function for me.

At first, I wanted to buy Japanese regular product and I asked the price to shop and he said it is JPY50,400.

2 months later, he called me and he said my watch arrived so I confirmed the price again.

He said it is JPY48,000.

I said really? I think you said the price is JPY50,400.

He said I’m so sorry. He was misunderstanding. It is JPY60,900.

OH my god! It become JPY10,000 expensive!
He said he cannot give me any discount price so I canceled the watch.

BUT! I really wanted to get the watch…..

So I’ve bought import one, I cannot get domestic support though,

The price is JPY32,000.

会社で大変お世話になった古木さんの退職祝いを
昨日、ワシら夫婦と古木さんの3人でホテル　オークラ31階　鉄板焼きレストランで

古木さんは雇用延長をしていたので64歳での退職です。
この方、ただの丸いおじさんに見えると思いますが、実はピアノのアクション機巧の
専門家で設計さん。
ワシら夫婦にとても良くしてくれて、実は嫁がヤマハに入れたのもこの方のお陰。
ワシの今の生活が有るのは、この方のお陰と言っても過言では無い
とんでも無くお世話になった方なのです。
有難う御座いました！
麻雀する時は呼びますんで宜しくお願いします。

Yesterday, we had retirement party for Furuki-san, taking care about me a lot in Yamaha, at Hotel Okura 31F Iron plate restaurant with my wife.

His retirement age is 64 years old because he has extended employment.

I think most of people think he looks common rather stout uncle, right?

BUT! He is not that kind of common person.

In fact, he is expert of piano action system and designer of it.

Can you believe it? But it is true!

He was always taking care about me and my wife a lot and actually some years ago, my wife could get employed by Yamaha because of his help.

As you know, this Mar, I bought new condominium and my wife has job in Yamaha.

If I couldn’t meet him in Yamaha, I wouldn't have this kind of good condition life so I really really appreciate him a lot.

Thank you so much!

I’ll call when we play Mahjong so please play with us the time.
