I currently use disposable contact lenses for farsightedness during the day. However, I've been getting a bit frustrated because I can't see the letters clearly when trying to read the newspaper in the morning. I thought changing the prescription might help, so I went to consult at a contact lens store attached to an eye clinic last Wednesday. My vision varies between my left and right eyes, possibly due to retinal detachment. After an eye exam, it was clear that my prescription for close-up vision had gotten worse. Even after trying different brands and prescriptions, I couldn't find bifocal contact lenses that would allow me to see both near and far clearly. Since I can't drive with my current vision, I use both contacts and glasses when driving. I've been told to get glasses that I can use with my contacts for reading up close. When I wear only glasses without contacts, the lenses are as thick as the bottom of a milk bottle, making me look much older. It's sad not to have satisfactory vision.

Recently, my cousin Satomi called me. She said she needs my and my family's official seals (stamps) to change the ownership of land, which was co-owned by her deceased father and grandmother, to her name. I didn't understand why our seals were needed for her to inherit her parent's land. Satomi was also confused. So, I gave her my father and sister's phone numbers. Satomi had hired a legal professional called a judicial scrivener, who would contact us for help. I wondered if I had any rights to the inheritance. I was also worried about how to gather the official seals and certificates from my estranged father and sister, who don't understand legal matters. Later, the judicial scrivener explained that the land had become complicated because Satomi's father hadn't changed the ownership to himself after his mother (my grandmother) passed away. Since my grandmother was alive, the inheritance rights that would have gone to my deceased mother now required the official seals and certificates from my father, sister, and me. The scrivener wanted to meet with my father and me, but I preferred to handle it by mail. The scrivener planned to visit my father's house to explain the situation. Last Wednesday, after many attempts to contact him, the scrivener visited my father, explained the situation, and offered to cover additional costs like the seal purchase, certificate fees, and transportation. My father agreed to help, which relieved me since I was worried about having to collect these documents myself. This situation made me realize how complex legal procedures can be, even for something as simple as changing land ownership. It made me wonder what I should do if my husband or father passed away.

My English teacher asked me, “did you find a new flat?” I said, “I had to find it last month, because I need to work. It’s a room in a barbershop. I can sleep at night after the customers and barber leave.” The advantage is no one disturbs at night. At least I can sleep (before I couldn’t). I hope there are no other stories. Too many stories during the past ten years. She said, “That sounds absolutely horrendous, it must be so frustrating and make it hard for you to trust people or feel settled in your living space.” I said, “it’s okay! There are a lot of good people around me.” I thought the barber’s advantage is his silence. There is a saying, “compare to blind massage, we need mute barber more”. But one day he said, “It’s time to do your hair. Too long and too much white hair.” The only advantage disappeared.
