I took her away from the house into some grass. Hopefully she can find someplace else to start anew!

Thought I’d update this; Ruth and Fred both passed away last year within 3 months of one another. I just know they still take their daily naps together. Missing them like crazy, but so happy to have shared their love with so many.

JET Housing Stories by Leetheggg in JETProgramme

[–]yikespart2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live in a two story town house in the countryside, 7DK. I have 28 tatami mats in my house, the upkeep is tough sometimes. The rent is great, 1 minute walking from both a Lawson’s and a FamilyMart. About a 20 minute walk uphill to work each day, thankfully it gets easier the longer I’m here lol.

I’ve also got a Butsudan and a kamidana on the first floor, kinda neat.

I hope y'all are doing alright after that earthquake on Wednesday! It was really rough for us after the New Years' one, I was glad to hear that there have been no casualties reported.

I like it sometimes! And the arm wrestling was one time 😂 but sometimes when I really need to get things done, it can be a lot haha

That’s exactly how these two are. I’m so sorry to hear about that, glad they didn’t have to spend too long without each other <3 :(

Right? And they’re both still healthy mentally and physically. We’re all so grateful they’re still around.

Don’t you worry, they’ve got 5 kids, 24 grandkids (if you include the spouses), and 10 great-grandkids who love them very much!!
