Three package of paintings in Los Angeles

Sending Paintings to Japan

I went to the USPS to send packages. These were quite big and Heavy. The USPS clerk was a business like person. Therefore, I had to rush to write an invoice. One of the packages was sent to an acquaintance who lives in Seattle because the paintings contained cannabis so it couldn’t enter Japan. I spent around $350 on them. It was ridiculously expensive. I don’t want to continue painting anymore. After that, I went to Mitsuwa Japanese supermarket for the first time in a long time. I got natto, tofu, boiled octopus and so on. I paid about $50 for them. I had kakiage bowl and hiyashi chuka for dinner. It was not so tasty.
