… mom means this month, full of appointments at hospitals and hair salons. That is why she made it her new rule to walk toward the nearest shrine on Mondays. Horsey riding lessons are reserved on Wednesdays, while allergy between clavicles let her go outdoors every other day. Exercise at least once a week is indispensable. Here she drew 吉 and 小吉 omikuji lots.

Mei-Shun finally visited a hair salon nearby our capital station. Mr. M is in charge of her cut and curl; the latter was given last year-end, yet had already been loosened. Well, short spring would soon force bangs to be separated, other part rolled up. This treatment bottle helps as today’s souvenir … oh? Where is its bag? When she wondered, her mobile caught a call from him.
Oh, brilliant 十六夜, Mei-Shun feels happy to see you stay in western sky at 5:30. Shin got on Ms. Moon toward Narita International Airport, heading Vietnam on business. Although we have 啓蟄=kei-chi-tsu, the 3rd of vernal 二十四節気 today, cold air still let them put on thick coats. When the wife returned warm living room, she found a big note on a staff.
Mei-Shun nearly forgot 丸餅 cakes stored in Ms. Cuby, her refrigerator. They were cooked into 雑煮 soup on 元旦 of course, yet most of them often wait for other dishes later. Grilled ones nicely friend with salty/sweet ingredients; 海苔 sheets, soy sauce, cheese, sugar and simmered red beans. Oops, 3 pieces were connected like a “3” shape – a bit too big to dip.
… we could not expect tonight, while above 馬酔木=Japanese andromeda flourishes. It actually went to mother of Mei-Shun from mom-in-law, exchanged with a 沈丁花=daphne in our garden. Pink clusters might keep celebrating ひな祭り=Doll’s Festival, for 2 girls lived there decades before. 2026 saw younger one of them enjoy 花きび=sugary popcorn instead of ひなあられ sweet rice cracker.
Mei-Shun saw solar March start yesterday, while her lunar birthday. The former means one for her favorite sumo wrestler who must already stay in Osaka: 三月場所 begins on 8th. It also accommodated 十三夜, the 2nd most beautiful figure of that celestial beauty following 十五夜. However, 春霞 foggy clouds made her look 朧月; who forecasts rain soon.
Princess Maria, it is the greatest pleasure for Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun to see Your Highness today; the last weekday of this month. Rainfalls, allergy of the latter, etc. prevented them from exercise with you horseies in one after another lessons. By the way, they are not in a nearby wood where “endurance” courses are available. Warmer air surrounds them on open field.
Mei-Shun saw Dr. W this afternoon: the former makes it a rule to do so when she is in better condition. That might mean a home doctor, who gives mental/physical advice into clearer ears. The latter lady always keeps smiling; listens first, answers/speaks next. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, it seems hard to work normally among people with virus or bacteria.
It rains hard from early morning today. Mei-Shun heard that reservoir capacity is quite smaller than usual, only a bit above 30% in some dams connected with Tonegawa river. It therefore must be marvelous, yet no moon or horsey riding is available for herself. And oh, it is getting more and more stormy; no shopping either. All right, she would start singing moonlight scores on one of her home friends.
Now I reached 20th paw, purr. Mom keeps a small curtain open after dark, enjoys 90-degree view of me from living room these days. My shade looks like sunlight, shines even when clouds cover all above us. The brightest might be growing at the top: twins to count full 22 will call dad and mom on behalf of my voice. Please wait until around lunar birthday of the latter.
