You eat a very healthy diet. That is part of the reason your husband is healing. My Grandson loves to eat ramen soup at restaurants. I try to make it at my home but he says I have not gotten it quite right yet.😂
A table with vegetables is a feast for me than meat. I exert effort to add beef as they said, seniors need to eat meat more. Oh, preparing soup for ramen is a skill even for ramen shops chef, they are trained well. I never tried making soup for ramen myself. It's expensive and time consuming. Thank you for watching.
That's Great News ! Congratulations on your channel getting monetized . Its also great to see the progress your husband has made and is no longer dependent on the wheelchair. I hope you get a chance to do some short trip videos as well . Happy New Year !!
Thank you so much! I am happier than him when this new walker delivered to us and seeing him walk. Wheelchair is good but traveling using trains is a cumbersome job for station masters. They need to assist us whenever we get on and off trains. Walker like this one is manageable for me.
Grace , I am really really so happy you are being monetized for your videos upload. Though the amount may not be big but some how I think it make you feel great 🎉 The viewers who make you feel that you are not alone and isolated is the main reward that you get. To me is definitely not easy to get viewers from all over the world to watch your videos but you make it. Congratulations to you again🎉 and hope that 2025 is even a more fulfilling year blessed with good health.
Hello, Elsie! Thank you for your best wishes about me and this channel. Yes, you're correct. Money will come in its best time. This channel is saving me during my isolation and that's a great thing already. My New Year started well and great!
Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu! Hai! I've started this new year on a happy note with a lot of positive comments from you and other viewers. Thank you! Algorithm is reacting and doing his job better and better.
Grace, i can’t wait to finish the video, so i have to pause it. I’m so happy for ❤ you. You don’t have to worry about earning a living when you get older. I had the same worry before but my children said mama sell your inheritance so could use it for yourself. It is not much but .with my little pension i think i could survive. Congratulations for your channel being monetized. More power to you! Always your ate.
Yes, Ate Rose. I am exerting effort to be consistent on making videos. I love it so I will make it, for sure. With your short story about yourself, I am honestly dreaming to meet you one day in person. Take care, Ate Rose.
@@livingwithgraceinjapan Thank you Grace.Me too. Maybe we can meet someday with the grace of our Lord. You deserve everything. You work so hard. I always tell my children, your mother is poor but the wealth i can give you is teaching you to be a good person. Be kind to others and you will be happy. I don’ t mean i am perfect. May topak din ako at may ugali ding hindi maganda but i’m trying my best to be a good person. Love again, your ate.
Oh! You are most welcome to our world ! I'm excited to know that I'm having a viewer from Bulgaria! I'd like to see you more on this comment section. Please come here again. It's not only for the growth of this channel but I am more excited to have an interaction with viewers from different parts of the world. Thank you for dropping your comment.!
Happy New Year to you and your husband, Grace! Of all the vlogs on UA-cam, yours is the one I look forward to the most. We 60 year olds need to stick together!😂 I sure hope you can get out to do the filming that you mentioned. I hope to do the same in the near future. (I'm hoping for an early spring!) Take care and keep up the great work you're doing with your channel!!
CONGRATS MAAM GRACE❤ na enjoy mo yung bagong hobby mo may extra income kapa.🤩 sana po hindi kayo mag sawang saguting ang mga comments. Kung may pangit po eh delete or block nyo may mga toxic po talaga. HAPPY 2 0 2 5 !
Haha... Interacting is one of the things I love to do. Merong nega rin and napapansin ko ay may one thing in common sila. Don't worry... YTube protects creators like myself. Yeah, Happy 2025. Are you Iha or Iho?
Happy New Years Grace. Congratulations on getting monetized! There’s always something interesting to see or learn in your videos. I just learned about the new years soba. For that last two years I’d go to my friends house on New Year’s Eve and they’d serve homemade soba after midnight and I know my friend said it was a tradition but I just assumed it was a family tradition, not a Japanese one. Because our family is small, many traditions were lost, like “pounding mochi” which we use to do until about 15 years ago. Thanks for sharing! It helps me learn or remind me our my Japanese culture.
You're one of the reasons why I had a great 2024. Best regards to you for another year 2025. Thank you. Preparing soba in midnight of New Year's Eve is kind of a duty or obligation. Dinners are served around 7 or 8pm so by the time it's midnight, everyone is full and sleepy but moms have to make a New Year soba to serve and wake up those who are sleeping. LOL. I learned Japanese culture and adapted.
@ I’m glad I helped make 2024 a good year for you. Not only do I admire you for the way you take care of your husband but also because you’ve learned the Japanese culture and adapted to be part of it rather than try to change it to fit you. I’m sure that’s not easy to do but you did it well Grace. Take care!
Happy New Year Grace, for you and your husband, wishing you good health too, your husband made great improvment through the year ! Take care of both of you, it s a pleasure to be with you on your channel, Best Wishes , Sophie ♥
Our pleasure, Sophie! It's the peak of the Winter in our region. I know France from movies and its beautiful. Let's both be safe. See you on my next video!
Akemashite omedetou Grace. Congratulations on becoming monetised. Very happy for you. It is so deserved. Love the progress in health and strength that your husband has made. More power to him. Such a lovely relaxing video today as all of your videos are, but this one captured the recap of 2024 and new things happening in 2025 perfectly. Thank you both for sharing your journey. Did you enjoy toshikoshi soba for New Years Eve? Happy New Year from Melbourne, Australia.
Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu, Neil san!! Yes, we enjoyed the toshikoshi soba with tempura of shrimp and vegetables. I'm glad that this channel has a viewer from Melbourne, Australia! Thanks for dropping by!
Hi Grace thanks for the video and I'm so pleased that youtube is working out for you. It's hard when a greater number of the simple everyday tasks fall to you but despite everything please try to look after yourself. Happy New year and best wishes from England 🏴.
Thank you, Peter, for reminding. You're correct. I'm exerting effort to give myself some kind of reward which is for me, hard. Best wishes to you and your family, too.
Hello Grace! Happy New Year! 🎉 You are an inspiration and source of joy and hope. I’m like your husband …I went from wheelchair and now drive a walker 😊 praying the both of us will graduate to walking without the walker. 🙏 Last year I was taking care of my mom with breast cancer and this year (same time …Christmas) it my older brother with newly diagnosed cancer. Imagine this while I’m using a walker 😵💫 When I sit and watch your vlogs it warms my heart. Your light keeps my light lit ❤ Sending you love and healing …always ❤ Ate Fran
Ate Fran, thank you for letting me know that I serve as a light to yours. I have a lot to thank you of. Please keep yourself strong always, Ate Fran. You'll make it. You and other viewers inspire me so much. I'm being guided and watched by Him. I know He does.
Hi grace good morning belated merry xmas and a happy new year and congratulations also for ur accomplishment this 2024 🎉🎉🎉we've been busy traveling last year I skip some of ur videos but now wer back here in UAE...keep uploading more and happy to see ur husband's progress..😊more power!!!

Our new year lunch is a simple one and we eat the same lunch all year round except Osechi (Japanese New Year traditional choices of meaningful foods). Thank you for the wishes for me and my husband. Wishing you the same.
Happy New Year Grace! I am glad you are making money from your videos and it will increase as your channel grows. What are you planning to do with the lovely fabric your neighbour has given you? Let us know :)
Thank you! About this fabric, I'm glad you noticed it. I'm still planning about what kind of cut I'd make from it. I want my neighbor see that I'm wearing a dress from her fabric. It's that the colorful patterns. I haven't tried wearing like it in my life.
Yes, we do have. But I limit sharing about our children because they're grown up and having their own families, decent families. We're senior na and not working full time, ( I do have my freelance job too that I should limit giving so much details and informations not related to "retirement, disability" life stories we have. Thank you for watching. Let us be careful.
Mabuti po dyan walang masyadong handa sa new year. Pinoy dito subra-subra ang handa yung iba tinatapon na kinabukasan. Prutas dini-display kahit hilaw basta kumpleto lang ang 13fruits hindi naman yumayaman. Pinoy culture hindi kona maintindihan.😕
