Fog might cover throughout the Japanese Archipelago this morning. It was adventurous to drive in such a circumstance. Today is the last of lunar January, with 啓蟄 (=keichitsu, the third of 24 seasonal terms meaning the day animals come out of hibernation) on Saturday, and the temperature reached 20 degrees Celsius in the afternoon. Oh, little dandelion, it is too soon for you to bloom, isn’t it?
Ms. I, Mei-Shun’s favorite instructor in horseback riding, gave a phone call. Yes, she misses you and lovely horses so much so far — the red eye has prevented her from attending the classes. Now that it’s 95% healed, she hopes to see them on coming Friday.
Mei-Shun’s left eye has 90% healed. A red spot is still above the iris, yet seems to have no problem with glasses. She looks forward to taking lessons of Japanese dance and horseback riding next week. During a whole week of stay-at-home, she made a slight effort to lose a piece of tyre around the waist.
Mei-Shun had an allergy test lately, with a result that listed 36 allergens never affect her. On the other hand, Shin is tortured by serious symptom of hay fever these days — this disease is mainly caused by cedar pollen in Japan. Sensitive husband and primitive wife we are.
Mei-Shun’s last piano instructor Ms. S will play at a concert held in April by TIAA (Tokyo International Association of Artists). Hearing that they would award her as a talented composer on the stage, Mei-Shun felt so happy. However, Ms. S gave a shocking news today that her younger son had been injured in an accident, followed by a relieving one that his brain had no problem.
Mei-Shun planned to apply for her passport renewal on coming March 3. It seemed nice to make the date of issue set on one of her happiest ones. However, she has to cancel that procedure since her left eye would take longer than 3 days to heal. Another candidate is March 23 when Mikan-chan exulted seeing her mom again after 4-week wait last year.
Only once every 4 years we can post on February 29. And it is today that Mei-Shun first found 子, 辰 and 申 symbols represent leap years. It seems somehow lucky to have one more day in these particular years.
Today will never be forgotten by Mei-Shun, who went under the knife last year. Everything has returned to normal except for the scar fading little by little. It allowed her to learn many, including the fact that she is not living her life alone; family and friends give her a delightful life.
It seems most women like to see mirrors, yet not for Mei-Shun right now. Shin noticed yesterday morning that she had reddish eyes, especially in the left. Her home ophthalmologist Dr. S diagnosed it as subconjunctival hemorrhage, which would take approx. 2 weeks to heal. Such a horrible look prevents her from going out. Just stay at home, play with Ms. Piano, it might say.
新井薬師 is.
Mei-Shun had her stomach examined via gastroscopy, conducted by Dr. Y in Tokyo. She experienced nasal one two years ago, felt much easier than oral one, so chose the former this time as well. And she had no problem — better than before. With a sigh of relief, she dropped in on 新井薬師 before seeing her mother living nearby.
