Fitness trampoline 4/17/2020

I ordered a fitness trampoline. First I ordered it through Amazon. My ordered day was April 5th, and their expected shipping date was May 7th. They put the note saying due to the excessive number of orders, they ship the high priority and urgent items first, and any other not-urgent times will be shipped late.

I didn’t want to wait that long for more than one month, so I canceled the order from Amazon.

I found the same item in other online store and purchased it. They shipped it on the next day of my order date, and my purchased items arrived four days after my ordered day. I am happy for it.

This morning the fitness trampoline arrived. According to the customers’ reviews, they mentioned about the toughness to install the bungee cables. But our product came with the bungee cables already installed. All we needed to do was to assemble six poles for the base and the three poles for the handle. It was not that difficult.

My daughter and I enjoyed exercising on the trampoline all afternoon. We went to bed with our sore calves and thighs. I like our new fitness trampoline.

As of April 17th, the Japanese government changed their policy regarding the stimulus check. They previously planned to provide up to 300,000 JPY to the people who meet their certain conditions and apply for it. Now they changed it to provide 100,000 JPY to All Japanese citizens including foreigners who live in Japan. It includes babies and children. So if you are a family of five, you are qualified to receive 500,000 JPY. But the procedure stays the same. In order to receive it, you have to apply for it. I know my dad will not apply for it, because of his health condition. He is blind and cannot go here and there. It will be tough to write down in the application form and submit. Same as my dad, many people who are inconvenient for the application process might not be able to apply for it. I think it will be unfair. Why they cannot follow the procedure of America, which was automatically sent to all the qualified American citizens based on the previous tax return information. It was a good procedure for us to easily understand and we didn’t do anything to receive the check.
