October 13, 2010 - Email Message - Jim, Linda. Hi. I wanted to let you know we received the package. Really busy morning with Akiko getting ready for work. Going to send a longer email tonight our time. The stuff is perfect though. Shai will play with the toys after dinner tonight. We want to take a picture before he messes with everything. Thank you very much for sending everything. Again will send a longer email tonight. Thank you again. Howie, Akiko, Shai stinky little dude.

October 14, 2010 - Email Message - Jim. Hey I planned on sending this last night but Akiko came home late from work and we needed to go shopping. Gonna take some Shai pictures this weekend. Anyway the package was really nice. Planning to use the new camera this weekend. A bunch of the stuff I requested. Please let me know if you want me to reimburse you are any of the items. Anyway Japanese is getting cooler now and more comfortable. Maybe chat soon then. Thank you again for sending everything. Send email when you can.

October 25, 2010 - Email Message - Jim. Hi. I wanted to let you know we are doing a party this weekend. Might be a good time to chat. Send email when you can. Howie.

October 25, 2010 - Email Message - Jim. Hi. I can turn the camera on and chat with you during the party this weekend. It would be Friday afternoon and evening your time. We could chat on the next day if it works out better for you. It would be more private then. This week really wiped out. Putting in a new wall in the entry and new flooring in the entry, kitchen and bedroom. Installing only the plywood now. This week is supposed to be much cooler and need to make this place warmer. For sure last year was not fun in this house during this season. Tell me if either of the chat days work for you. Send email when you can. Howie.
- Halloween Party. We decided to celebrate yet another holiday which goes basically unnoticed in Japan. Although the local superstore, Seiyu (Walmart), sold a considerable amount of Halloween goods and paraphernalia, this holiday should really be renamed Holloween in Japan due to lack of interest. Either way it was a fun party and a good way to hang out with the students and a good excuse to get drunk with the neighbors.
