Meow, mom found following watermelon in a little cart at a grocery shop where 羅臼昆布, her favorite kelp is sold. She told me that a lot of such bargain sales are seen around here these days. One of the reasons might be postponement of 陶炎祭=hi-matsuri held in 笠間, according to a hairdresser who always serves nice tea cups. Why don’t you visit there next year to pick up my water bowl? Purr …

Oh, Princess Maria, Ms. Last One, Mr. Tea Time and Ms. Sagittarius, Mei-Shun has to wait for at least 3 weeks to see you all again. A horsey riding club they belong to informed her that it would be closed until the state of emergency goes ineffective. Well, it might be right: although members can stay away from three Cs outdoors, indoor environment is almost the same as other business.
Our backyard gingko is getting greener and greener day by day with lovely little shells. Mom-in-law’s cactus garden also have a lot of babies on edge. They make Mei-Shun’s mind calmed down, let her see brighter side of everything. Now is the time to cook for dinner. Vegetable soup and grilled sausage would be a good match … hey, what is going on in this cabbage?
Mei-Shun contacted Master Bando, who kindly invited the former to a new-year party in the end of January. However, cedar pollen already grabbed Shin at that time. His serious condition affects his wife so much that it took her as long as 2 months to return to normal. Now she feels happy to hear that 邦楽発表会, stage performance in kabuki dance is expected to be held at the end of November.
Me, Ms. Piano and …
Mei-Shun visited a hair saloon in 御徒町, Tokyo again. Actually, she reserved another one to choose the best for cut and curl. However, current stay-home campaign let the latter suspend business for 4 weeks until next month. Yes, we are supposed to think carefully about any action to go out. Since it seemed important to look neat, she decided to do it within a few hours.

Lovely waiting sofa
Shin went on a business trip to 徳島. Mei-Shun has not visited that prefecture where Master Mei-Shu was from, while famous for 阿波踊り=awa-odori, a dance performance on parade. Their main airport featuring above dance in name gives free lesson to tourists. When the loved lady joined them for a joke, she was awarded the best performer of that day.
Meow, sudden shower, stormy wind and weird virus have forced me and mom to stay at home from weekend. It is just as usual — my realm is here, she prefers to keep social distance. Let’s therefore enjoy warm sunlight through windows in daytime, bright moonlight at night, purr. We are expected to see a full moon tonight. Called with “pink” or “super” before, it is the biggest in 2020.

How long has Mei-Shun left 乙戸沼 Park? At least over 3 months, since her 2020 diary does not have any record of visiting there so far. Missing winter waterfowls, she and Shin saw young gingko buds. 染井吉野 blossom was almost over, while a cherry tree with white flowers in full blossom. 八重桜=yae-sakura, layered-petal breed seems to need a few weeks to bloom.
Great as well to see these fountains.
Mei-Shun wonders why she still stays one bag of sugar behind the goal, as long as 4 months have already passed. She knows there are several points on the way: while she is on satisfactory decline in weight, her shape does not make remarkable change. And vice versa. Hey, mischievous textbook, please stop calling her “d.e.b”. Anyway tonight, she would treat herself to a glass of sake Shin’s young friend brewed in Paris.
Mei-Shun loves it, partly because this breed has ever supported her on business. When felt tired, she used to remove sight from the desk and took a glance at a window. There one of them looked her back, sometimes in full blossom. Other times let it snow by petals. Their longevity compared to popular 染井吉野 attracts her as well, with shades ranging from bright pink to white.
