Capn' Frances:

Hoping 2016 will work out better than 2015 for you and yours.

[Eireann]

Amen to that!

[Cap'n Frances]

I think that's very likely! Happy New Year, everyone!

Well, our furniture and other stuff arrived from Japan. 387 items/boxes to be opened and put into place. Oh, my back!

[73Bruin]

387 boxes from Tokyo. I didn't think that places in Japan (especially Tokyo) were big enough to hold that many boxes of stuff!

I am sure you will find years from now that some boxes are still unpacked. When my dad passed, I brought back a number of boxes of stuff that I thought would be nice to have, but most are still untouched (e.g. power tools).

None of my business, but where did you move to (approximately)?

[putaro]

We are in Cupertino, in the SF Bay Area. The area has definitely changed a lot. Still have a lot of boxes to unpack.

[73Bruin]

things in the heart of Apple land changed quite a bit.

[putaro]

You can't swing a cat without hitting an Apple building around here. I can't complain too much, though, the fruit company paid for our relo. Now, if I could just get my old office back I would be a happy camper.

Not a whine, but more an thing that I noticed: the forum looks very different now, but it's easier to write a note.
