This is the day for me and mom to visit “Arles” once a month, purr. She made a phone call in advance to avoid our empty drive on Ms. Scarlet. 染井吉野 cherry blossoms along main streets in Tsukuba were almost over, while 八重桜, layered-petal breeds began to bloom. And salted, tiny flowers on macarons welcomed us at the shop. She purchased another can with my image on the lid to accommodate them.

It is quite cloudy from early morning today. Mei-Shun takes it easy to avoid suntan. Her only concern is weather forecasts of 40% rainfall around noon. Which would be better; going out for horsey riding, or staying home in kimono to practice 京鹿子娘道成寺? She chose the former accompanied by sweet Mikan-chan. Her great protection let a shower stop when they arrive at the club.
We have lunar 桃の節句 or March 3rd today. Mei-Shun went out for shopping to prepare a small dinner, walked to the nearest shrine from a nearer-by supermarket car park. Cherry blossoms have already passed their full stages, while lovely petals were falling onto the ground. She caught one on her palm, felt happy and drew an omikuji lot. No. 8 大吉=dai-kichi, the luckiest has come!
I and mom danced with Mrs. White Mocha and Crunchy today, purr. We plan to upgrade lessons from current basic to advanced ones, held in wider field. On the other paw, after going home full of delight, she got on a scale to find shocking numbers: they are just at maximum she allows to herself. She therefore has to review her methods including 8 hours, candy first, title above, etc.

Lunar March starts from today. Before Mei-Shun got injured in a finger, she had played a moonlight score composed by Master Debussy first rather than another by M. Beethoven. However, last week heard opposite turn while followed by “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” as usual. Oh, Master Schumann appeared from below — she would practice some looking easy yet not.
Mr. Diamond, descended from Mei-Shun’s beloved father, would go soon: his fuel tank has serious cracks. “It is dangerous to drive him any more”, Shin said. His brother-in-law is a dealer of used cars, helped above couple to find another one. They got on him this weekend accompanied by Mikan-chan, enjoyed the last chance perhaps to go from a cherry blossom to others.
… Mei-Shun made today, or a stroll looking for cherry blossom. Ms. Scarlet helped her to go here and there including a horsey riding club in 龍ヶ崎. They accommodate more trees than in Tsukuba, yet both have neighbors of golf playing field surrounded by the same breed. And thank you so much, Professor M who gave above shot of her friend 山櫻 in early blossom.
We have 清明=sei-mei, the 5th of spring 二十四節気 today. It is said to mean various flowers fill the ground, while Momo-chan puts on a bright pink kimono for only 10 days per year. Maybe as mentioned before, she descends from Mei-Shun’s grandma of mother’s side, grown into such a beauty by mom-in-law. It is great to see the latter found well by her daughters in our garden.
Mei-Shun walked to a hair salon the other day, in high-heeled pumps as usual. She enjoyed reading news paper on green tea until dyeing medicine calmed down. Oh, an exhibition featuring an empress of our Meiji period is advertised. The potter made above cute cup might be inspired by this dress. By the way, why does her right ear get so black even after bath?
Mei-Shun’s left pinkie seems to have 90% recovered. Almost no pain any more, she tried Ms. Piano last night after dancing with Mr. White Mocha. Smallest among five, it hardly works alone while helps others a lot. Especially when she holds heavy items like Mr. Sirius — her hands lift it onto his back with all 8 larger family members balanced well by 2 babies.
