Had deep appreciation towards the dentists and dental assistants. Covid is spreading by droplet infection, they are risking their own health to prioritize treatment for patients.
Thank you so much.
Without dentists and dental assistants our teeth will merely be lost.
Since December my upper left teeth were somewhat uncomfortable.
Finally I went to the dentist today, and the doctor took a photo of the tooth.
It was black with a hole.
How could that happen? I brush my teeth three times a day….
He asked me if I have any plan afterward, I said no.
Then he said, if I’d like to take that out.
I said yes, so he did. within a minute.
A hole.
When I pulled out my wisdom tooth on lower right, it took a few hours to pull out and took months to recover a huge deep hole.
Wondering why this time was so easy, and almost no pain.
I appreciate the quick operation, he is the best dentist I’ve ever met.

Currently preparing for a next job starts from February, my role will be a language support 英日 and 日英 for some app development project. Most likely it’s related to B to B digital transformation (DX) service, I’m searching news and reading as much as possible.
These days having a sore throat and a stuffy nose due to PM 2.5.
And soon hay fever wave would come.
Seems cats are having an allergy too, when I open the window for him in the morning, he’ll make a sneeze. 🤧
As omicron strain infection surging worldwide and here in Japan, I thought it might be canceled.
Fortunately no restriction issued so we went out as planned.
Before we wake up this morning, there was an alert message of Tsunami on mobile phones at midnight that woke us up. It was tsunami warning, related to Tonga‘s volcanic eruption on the 15th.
After check the news on TV, we tried to go back to sleep again, then another alert message received it continued for a few hours constantly.
It counted 600 messages that’s what we found out in the morning.
Caused by operation mistakes.
Seemed everyone tried to do the same, turning off the sound.
Alert makes sound even if in manner mode as it’s for emergency, so I needs another untick in a setting. While we were sleepy we somehow managed the how-to.
I found many how-to videos quickly uploaded at midnight to meet the demand. YouTube is super helpful.
Now omicron and economic activities.
Enjoy Sumo and golf matches, appreciate opera are part of economic activities.
If fans stop going to site, for example Sumo association soon faces difficulty surviving as a business organization like in 2020 and 2021. I wander how could they survive the past two years.

Sumo was fun! Yokozuna Terunofuji won and he is 7 wins and 1 lose as of today. Yet 7 days remaining.
Work from home has widely been introduced since 2020.
I saw more people jogging than people heading to the station back then.
Today, it feels like 50% or more people are back to the regular work style. Trains are moderately crowded.
With the current situation, in Feb or could be at an earlier timing Tokyo and Kanagawa (where I live) both will be under restrictions by pre-emergency measures.
The number of infected people is increasing. A daily infection stats says 21,880 on the 14th Jan, it was 1,149 on the 4th Jan.
Usually metropolitan area like Yokohama and Tokyo we don’t have much snow but this year is a bit colder.
Rare snowing at this time of year.
I’m at home and looking out the snow.
⛄️
Trains, major routes and highways will be affected. This morning I saw a man who just got a shovel, I thought it is not necessary though he was right. It’ll accumulate and we’ll need shoveling snow later.
Today I chatted with several advisors of Apple support as I can’t login to iCloud on MacBook with my Apple ID. It’s something I have been ignoring for a while. Until some years ago, AppStore account and Apple ID were not necessary the same, and somewhat I have had two IDs. I was using iPhones and iPad and MacBook, then got an issue.
Sometime last year I logged out and initialized old iPhone and iPad, now only one active iPhone and MacBook, yet my Apple ID doesn’t work.
So far I tried several solutions as instructed, and now updating/upgrading MacBook.
snow keeps falling and I need to go shopping.
Wow, the update finally allowed me to login…now the backup became available.
