It is Marine Day today, often equivalent to the start of summer vacation for school children. Here Mei-Shun received her watch fixed perfectly. Since blue belt on the right was broken, she asked replacement by similar one. So beautifully done, she is quite satisfied. Thank you very much, Shin. It was one of gifts from him before they married, to match her engagement ring with a sapphire.
Mei-Shun’s latest omikuji lot drawn at the nearest shrine is 吉=kichi, lucky while the one Shin brought home for her yesterday from Yamaguchi Prefecture 中吉=chu-kichi, luckier. Getting better, the former says she would recover from diseases if she stay watchful; the latter she should not take care too much. As for examinations, it would take time; she should improve her laziness and set the goal ASAP.
錦帯橋, Kin-tai Bridge
Mei-Shun found a butterfly baby on the wall of front porch last night. No leaf around it, alone, looked a bit bizarre under lamp light. His/her intention was clear, to grow into an adult to fly from here. In this morning, it was safe with yellowish shade. And it took only a few hours to make a green pupa. Mademoiselle Vert, you keep blooming for amazing 4 months. Please give your power to that tiny soul.
Mom, mom, I did well in the restroom. Why didn’t you see it soon to say good girl to me? Meow, you look tired. Where have you been so far? Appointments with a dentist and an ophthalmologist consecutively, from 9 : 30. That’s the reason for your rushing out while washing cube was still humming. I see, then it’s my turn to say the same to you, on your legs. Purr … purrrr …

Thanks a lot, lovely animals. You always encourage Mei-Shun to practice piano. From behind, Baby-Chan (meaning “elephant” in Thai) and Papa-Chan. Do you miss your homeland? She hopes to visit there as well. Choco-chan and Ohagi-chan, your getting along with Kasane-chan twins is highly appreciated. White bears, elder one from Canada, do you feel kabuki dance steps on scores?
Mei-Shun is, would never like to get wet even in slight rain. Shin and his mother are real antonyms — they say it does not rain when the poor wife and daughter-in-law rush back to the porch to pick up one of her collection. Its color is ranging from violet to red, texture from plastic to cloth. Isn’t it enjoyable to coordinate your clothes with that great artifice like shoes and bags?
This is her favorite.
Mei-Shun plays better that score composed by Master Bach these days. It is thanks to the radio program she used to listen to: she has stopped learning Spanish for three-fourth year by an intention. When she aims to acquire fluency on piano, not only her fingers but also ears need time and concentration to absorb melody. That might be because she has a kind of resistance in brain to accept something new.
Thanks, mom-in-law.
Following below is Shin’s souvenir from Las Vegas. It was skin-grilling there, yet so dry that felt quite easy, he told Mei-Shun. On the other hand, they are in the latter half of rainy season here, with temperature around 25 degrees Celsius. However, 100% humidity almost every day makes them feel heavy both in mind and body. It is not an excuse by the wife whose weight keeps stagnant lately.
Lunar June starts from today. Clouds have been too thick to see the moon at night, yet it does not matter tonight. Mei-Shun feels lucky to have rainfall stop from yesterday afternoon, meant to walk but ride to the nearest shrine after 3-week respite. We have what current season is this year, that is all right. So she made a simple wish to Gods: please save us all on the Japanese archipelago.
Meow, I saw dad after a week. Mom was a bit panicked, maybe because she woke up around the time when his car arrived in front of the gate early this morning. After a flight of nearly a whole day, he looked quite tired. She therefore prepared bath and breakfast immediately, while the woman she calls mom-in-law cooked pork ginger. Now everything’s over, hold me on your knee. Purr … purrr …
