Chocolate Day

Standard

Or St. Valentine’s Day has come. Mei-Shun ordered much of that delicacy from a chocolatier located in western Tokyo. Bringing one among them chocolate-coated apple jelly, she visited her mother’s home for lunch joined by her elder sister. Time flew above these three women, chat after chat. By the way, that saint seems to prosper again in Europe these days.

Greeting Green

Standard

Hello Mr. Tea Time, looking so cute as usual, while a hair accessory on your forehead lost one of rhinestones. It would be a great pleasure of Mei-Shun to change it into another already prepared. Listen, Antwerp, the city of jewelry, brought her the best choice of emerald ring via Shin. Their couple of clear and green gemstones would therefore wait a bit more to become a pair of earrings.

Who’s foot is below right?

Honoring Her

Standard

Mei-Shun instructs Professor M in kabuki dance on Wednesdays. Actually, today is the first lesson in 2020 since the former was sickened on her left eyelid last month. Biscuit-colored silk kimono (thanks a lot, Shin) was planned to put on for celebrating new year, yet it seems too late in this second month. She therefore decided to use one of obi sashes Master Mei-Shu kindly left.

No More

Standard

… point of no return. Mei-Shun means it on coming March 31st when she visits another hospital for health check. Aiming to reach the real goal, she would resume her methods which tend to be ignored these days. Less exercise caused by rainfall also makes her vulnerable toward weight gaining. May she treat herself to 冨貴寄, reserving the biggest can to be delivered on above date?

Or cherry-colored one is better?

 

After 4Y + 45Wks

Standard

Mei-Shun had a phone call from Dr. A meaning “Yes” on weekend. Now she can live another half an year without thinking about it. It is her greatest pleasure, thanking everyone close to her whom she loves so much. One of them Shin, on the top of her list, is on a business trip to Germany. Staying at Frankfurt am Main, he visited Munich, Antwerp in Belgium before coming home tomorrow.

 

Acknowledgement

Standard

It is my great pleasure to inform you kind followers on a little accomplishment. Mom and I saw 222 of you the other day. We had wished to see it before 22nd of this month, Day of Cat for fanciers in our country. However, we reached that happy point much earlier. With our next goal 333, we would serve you better site by making efforts for improvement.

Another BD

Standard

Today is Mei-Shun’s birthday on lunar calendar. She has made those pretty roses hung so far to dry up. Now she must take more care of actions around her pillow where a silver pot accommodating another beauty below. Such a heedless person often hit her head, shoulders, arms, hands, legs and feet on something harder than a tofu corner — while her back into this crispy, light artwork.

Save Time

Standard

Mei-Shun saw following sign for the first time. Top green letters means that this ATM at a post office would be out of service soon, exactly in three minutes. Having been so much interested in the message that she waited until this light on. However, kind followers, please do not do the same. She should have come earlier, should not have driven so fast. Haste makes waste.

Too Soon

Standard

We have 立春=risshun, the first of spring and whole 二十四節気 today. It means to get warmer on lunar calendar, while still in cold weather on solar one normally. Yes, it is quite normal for us to put on thick sweaters and coats within February. However, thinner ones are often chosen this winter. Less snow, much more rain. The latter prevents Mei-Shun from going to see lovely horseies.

White plum soon

So are baby tulips

Leap Year

Standard

So 2020 is, since we are in 子=ne, mouse of Chinese zodiac or 干支=eto. Others are 辰=tatsu, dragon and申=saru, monkey years come in every 4 years. Mei-Shun was born in the latter, lucky to have one more day at the end of this month. And one of the most interesting matters for her is that above three animals are small-large-medium in size respectively.
