Rainy days give Mei-Shun good chances to make a long phone call with mother. Her younger daughter serves photos of Momo-chan every year, that makes her delighted to see such beauty getting more and more splendid. This princess is the 4th generation, descended from her grandmother. “She kindly peeled its fruits for me,” always the same comment which has never come true here.
Nice Numbers: 2
StandardThanks a million from Mei-Shun to you kind 464 followers. She found it on weekend, felt like you are saying yo-ro-shi-ku or “take care of us hereafter”. Although lacking 9 at last to read “ku” in our language, she would expect the next with 10 new guests rather than 10 times. Now we seem to enter a bit delayed rainy weeks in spring called 菜種梅雨=natane-tsuyu.
Precious Paws
StandardMs. Piano, you and Mikan-chan are always good mentors for Mei-Shun. For example, she has stopped sung with the former one of scores in “Lieder Ohne Worte” composed by Master Mendelssohn for a few years, resumed it yesterday. Awful sounds disappointed her, while reminded of a saying “practice makes perfect”. Yes, she would be happy to follow your treasured advice.
Novel to Normal
StandardMei-Shun went to a research institute with mom-in-law today, to get the 3rd vaccination against that coronavirus still “new” following 4 kinds already found among us human beings. Gods of rain kindly stopped falling when they got on Ms. Scarlet. It was the first time they entered the site. Beautiful trees in light green, white and pink welcomed them under gray sky. It might be why they saw no crowd.
Alone Again
StandardMeow, mom practices 松の緑 at home these days. I feel happier when she stays with me longer, while a bit tired if she gives too much attention. It is to take the best care of yourself that is the most important: your mental/physical health is the same to mine. So please do not hesitate to dance, play Ms. Piano, take a nap in your bedroom or sometimes go out.

Cute Chocolates
StandardMei-Shun got her right eye all red in half like a strawberry. It is a kind of injury called subconjunctival hemorrhage. Looking recovered 90%, still a bit weird with yellowish shadow in white part. That is why she canceled an appointment with Princess Maria yesterday, while with another on Thursday. No sweets with no exercise, yet she found nostalgic, bigger ones.
Morning Mountain
StandardShin went to Nagano via Kofu last weekend on business. He sent Mei-Shun above photo taken through a train window, just like a postcard by a professional photographer. This light pink sash would lead to juicy peaches in summer. On the other hand, our garden princess Momo-chan has already finished blooming with her bright petals spread on the ground to make a gorgeous carpet.
Danish Delight
StandardMei-Shun visited her home dentist to see Dr. M for a monthly check today. For this patient, medical clinics are often followed by good bakery shops — she treats herself to sandwiches, baguettes and sweets even after coming back from above. By the way, “Double Ds” would take a leave from now on: she would stop going to Master Bando’s place for a while.
Conspicuous Child
StandardMs. Piano, when Mei-Shun opens your lid for practice, beloved father sounds like saying welcome back. It was he who recommended you to his younger daughter at the age of 5. She used to play outdoors almost every day, all day long. Many children around her took lessons in 書道=shodo, Japanese calligraphy or そろばん=soroban, abacus calculation as after-kindergarten activities.
Magnificent Masters
StandardMei-Shun walked 5 minutes to a hair salon this morning. While waiting for dyeing medicine to work well absorbed, she found a magazine featuring actress mother and daughter in nice kimono. The former is Ms. F whom beloved Master Mei-Shu admired while the latter Ms. T, elder sister of kabuki actor 尾上菊之助. He or Master Sen-Sha said that it was really sad to lose his party several years before.
