スミカ・クリエイト スタッフ Every year my company has annual health check-ups for our employees. I had mine on Thursday the second and everything seemed alright. Except for one thing...my weight. I have put on 13 kgs since my last check-up last year. I knew I was weighing more than before and alot of it has to do with this new medication I am taking but I had no idea I put on that much weight. Well now I know and that is half the battle. I am watching my diet more closely and especially my alcohol intake. I become increasingly aware the later it gets into the evening. My goal is to lower my weight 1 kg per month for the next 12 months. I try to get some exercise in when I am not too tired from work. If my wife wasn't such a damn good cook this would be easier to conquer. Please encourage me and keep me going in the right directions. - Jason tag:www.c21-smica.com,2010:/blog_century21_yusuke//37.2707 2010-08-22T07:05:44Z 2010-08-28T11:05:12Z

スミカ・クリエイト スタッフ The second month of babyhood is nearly finished for the family and I think we are getting a hang of the basic things. Luca can go out and about in her stroller too now so that makes my wife more mobile. It appears that Luca likes going out as she does not cry while outside so that makes things easier for us. We have even gone to restaurants with her and she sleeps through that so it's great. Luca is gaining about 25 to 30 grams a day so if you don't see her for a couple of days you really notice a difference. She is getting more meat on her face and body finally. She is also gaining strength in her neck enough to move it around and switch positions. We are noticing that she is smiling more often now and every once in awhile catch a glimpse of her playing by herself. Month one and two have been great, hopefully month three will be just as great or better. tag:www.c21-smica.com,2010:/blog_century21_yusuke//37.2683 2010-08-09T10:30:11Z 2010-08-09T10:42:49Z

スミカ・クリエイト スタッフ It has just passed the first month with the baby at home and things have been relatively smooth. At first I was sleeping with the baby and my wife but they wake up too frequently during the night waking me up that I sleep alone in my bedroom now. Problem solved. I enjoy what little time I can spend with my family. I like bottle feeding my baby looking into her sparkling eyes wondering what she's thinking. I didn't know that having a baby would bring so many gifts! I got a stroller from my uncle! Clothes and a baby bed from my parents. Clothes from my wife's parents. Clothes from my Aunt Barbara in the states. A baby bag from my coworker Asano-san. Blankets and bibs and little rattlers. My sister gave me a slew of presents too. Stuffed animals, socks and baby books. Friends and family have been so kind that we have barely had to buy anything yet. We even received diapers in the form of artwork put together to look like a giant wedding-type cake. I think the only thing we buy is that milk formula for when baby Luca isn't breast feeding. I feel fortunate and wanted to share my gratitude to everyone that has contributed with material items and even for your thoughts and prayers.

スミカ・クリエイト スタッフ Okay - my bonsai trees are starting to look alive now but not quite ready to post photos. They are budding or the leaves are beginning to open up but it is not there just yet. Hopefully this weeks warmth will speed things up a little. So I plan to take photos of each of my beloved bonsai trees and post them up here. I figured they would look better with some leaves or flowers rather than just the trunk and branches naked. I am happy they made it through the winter save for one which succumbed to illness late last fall. A moment of silence please. Most importantly, I managed to keep the very old bonsai trees my grandfather entrusted me with. The reason why I like the subject so much is because it is a very long process - it can be longer than one or two human lifetimes. While these bonsai trees are potted, they are dependent. With this comes responsibility but I get a lot out of it. I notice things even at the daily level and that makes me feel pretty happy. I feel I am becoming more patient since working with my bosai. I feel I pay more attention to small details. I feel more comfortable with long term committment. I feel more comfortable with taking care of life. Every day after work when I get home, before I change I always take a look at all of my trees. It makes me feel peaceful inside. I am asked quite often, "don't you ever get bored looking at them all of the time??" but my answer is always, "no". tag:www.c21-smica.com,2010:/blog_century21_yusuke//37.2326 2010-02-23T11:56:04Z 2010-02-23T12:00:09Z

スミカ・クリエイト スタッフ As you can tell from my blog, I like plants and trees and little bonsai. The bonsai I was given from my grandfather are great but I pick up one every now and then to complement my set. The latest is called jyu-gatsu sakura meaning October Sakura. This is interesting because normally all cherry blossoms - blossom in April but this one blossoms in April and October! I don't have a photo on hand now but I definitely will post some to share my relaxing pasttime. tag:www.c21-smica.com,2010:/blog_century21_yusuke//37.2255 2010-01-23T10:32:54Z 2010-01-23T11:10:08Z

スミカ・クリエイト スタッフ I have had many things going on in my personal life very recently. My normal days off Tuesday / Wednesday have been completely packed with visiting with family members and family members to be, hospital visits, loan application after application, contract signings. It is my job to find properties for clients, submit loan applications and guide through the sales contract. For the very first time, I find myself doing this on my own for myself and it - at times - has been overwhelming. Simultaneously busy with work and other affairs, time has been demanding but manageable. I cannot possibly try to know all of my clients' feelings when going through the purchase process but going through the experience myself has provided me with a better understanding. My clients have put an enourmous amount of trust in me when purchasing real estate with me. I will strive to never let this change. - Jason tag:www.c21-smica.com,2009:/blog_century21_yusuke//37.2138 2009-11-26T12:47:35Z 2009-11-26T13:05:26Z
