Hello from America! 
I made a short blog today, mostly pictures. 
Today me and my two sons moved into a bigger apartment. It is a temporary move for 1 year so that we have more space to work and live while making decisions on where to buy a more permanent home. The new place is very nice, and has enough room for us to live comfortably and support my son's fur suit creation business. 
We are computer geeks for sure! I setup the living room so we can all watch TV at the same time, and work on our computers as well. It will take months for us to get fully moved-in. 
The cats moved in and explored. Maggie should not be in the dryer! 
Juliet recognized my bed probably by the my scent. 
I had to do some repair work on the Juki sewing machine. It needed a new motor mount and repairs to the electronics. 
Once done Shouta got it all setup! 
I'll post more tomorrow, I wanted to share pictures of the new place. I still live with the struggles of taking care of my boys alone, and sometimes the loneliness makes me sad. Overall I am very happy now that we have a bigger place to live.
I hope you have a wonderful and successful day in Japan.
