Lunar December 2024 starts from today, 大晦日=New Year’s Eve on solar calendar. Mei-Shun hoped to visit the nearest shrine accompanied by Shin and Mikan-chan, yet the former dad coughs too hard to go out. She therefore stayed home, did what could not on Christmas Day: baked a chiffon cake. It was served as dessert with hand-whipped cream after 年越し蕎麦=year-crossing soba noodle.
Yes, 2024 has them only left on solar calendar. Mei-Shun feels fairly satisfied with her accomplishment, while it might seem quite petite to you kind 523 followers. It is not herself alone who made it: people of warm hearts gave grand support. Lovely, fluffy pals did as well. Followed by Mercury, Jupiter and Venus in coming 2025, she would spend these 2 days respectfully.
So it was the last dance for Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun with him in 2024. Thanks to this lovely boy, the latter seems to have learned again how to do it. She would attend new classes to practice walk, trot and canter through a fixed route to gain the 3rd, next grade of horsey riding technique. Would you be our top partner candidate, followed by Mr. MATSURI and Mademoiselle Angel, darling?
Mei-Shun saw her home ophthalmologist Dr. N, after Professors A and M on lunch. Although looked available anytime so far, quite crowded at a cafe today. Now is test time if she has glaucoma or not — her left eye caught a light within a machine somehow doubled or tripled, compared to right with single and clear image. When she took off contact lenses, 2 pieces were found layered on the former.
Here are Shin’s gift to Mei-Shun celebrating their anniversary. The wife is happy to see him stay home, yet because he seems to have serious flu. She also caught it, while shows milder symptom thanks to medicine preventively taken. Such a situation reminds them of decades before when the husband lived in Osaka alone on business. Perhaps with the same disease, they have learned how to deal.
Princess Cymby finally opened the other flower bud: younger Highness took 10 days longer. When they are ready, look separated into 2 parts of a shell pod supported by a stalk. Kept in the same length at the bottom, upper division grows day by day to let Mei-Shun see a cluster of little buds. By the way, would you kind 523 followers be able to recognize elder one behind green leaves?
Mom met them at a tea shop she recently visited for the first time, purr. Since her favorite one was closed months before, she decided to try another nearby when purchased bags of green tea were all consumed. Hi friends, would you like to enter? They never do, even if she opened this slide door. “Oh, please don’t”, the owner lady asked mom who rang a door bell on a desk to call the former.

December 2024 had not seen any rainfall until yesterday: such dry air arrived after 24 years according to a weather record. Mei-Shun therefore often sang rainy songs on Ms. Piano, using a humidifier beside. By the way, they might progress in Kanon composed by Master Pachelbel little by little. In order to avoid retreated “Clair de Lune”, practice of these masterpieces are always set together.
So this is the last chance for me and mom to trot with Mr. Danone Caesar in 2024, purr. It seemed to have rained in early morning, nice for garden plants dried for weeks. However, first snow of current winter followed to make us wonder if going out or not. Finally tried and won that horsey boy, we felt really happy. Our dance with other horseies gets along, giving happier mind these days.

Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun enjoyed dancing with Mr. MATSURI today. On the way to home, they often take another route when a big crossroad is too crowded. It leads to a block of flats whose entrance hall shows a lovely, snowy Christmas tree. Yes, even if drivers are in a hurry, they must be careful while given peace of mind by such an excellent view.
