Shin puts on sweats with long sleeves on his days off, while normal shirts on business even in midsummer. It had therefore been a bit difficult for Mei-Shun to find such clothes at stores, yet online shopping is available these days. She recently received his short sleeve T-shirts; they would become her horsey riding “jackets”, big enough to work as a handkerchief.
Mei-Shun washed a yukata to put on after bath. It came from 浜松 she visited with Shin decades before. They stayed at a hotel featuring music, since above city accommodates a famous maker of musical instruments including piano of course. Full of scores and notes, it served well until getting 半襟 collar worn out. Mom-in-law kindly sewed it up using a 手拭 towel.
I and mom got on Ms. Scarlet to visit a horsey riding club in 龍ヶ崎. A bit cloudy sky helped us to go easily, despite weather forecasts saying we would experience 猛暑日, over 35 degrees Celsius. However, Mr. Danone Caesar was already chosen by another member. All right, lottery for August reservation please. No. 504? It looks disastrous, while we met many kind people there. Purr … purrr …

Here Mei-Shun keeps lovely bags of rice cracker. These sparrows came from Osaka where Shin visited on business — 2 weeks have already passed since he brought them home. Compared to sweets from 能登 and 名古屋, they taste best for longer until August. And they are able to work as our staple food, simply mentioned by name. Now which would she choose tonight?
Mademoiselle Vert reached her full blossom last month on 16th, Father’s Day. Mei-Shun takes it a happy message from Mikan-chan toward Shin, with 9-9 flowers on opposite branches like a pair of wings. After bathing several times outdoors in natural shower, she also gave a baby leaf on the top of flounced dress below. So you returned normal and healthy condition, honey.
Yes, solar July just started from Monday. Mei-Shun takes it nice, while lunar June from Saturday with 小暑=shousho, the 5th of summer 二十四節気. In the middle of rainy season, she often plays moonlight scores on Ms. Piano: Masters Debussy and Beethoven seem to give different impressions on that celestial entity. The former expresses her beauty by major melody, the latter by minor chords.
Today is the deadline to order 水無月=minazuki from たねや this year. Well, Shin and Mei-Shun have consumed just 1 of 3 boxes he purchased at 能登里山 Airport last week. They visited that city twice, love halcyon atmosphere there and beautiful sight fairly balanced between the sea and rice paddy. With their petite contribution, rapid recovery is cordially wished.
Purr, I and mom went to a horsey riding club in Tsukuba getting on Ms. Scarlet. Cool wind comes from the east, more comfortable than yesterday. We danced several steps with Mr. Loki first, then tried Mr. Margherita? or Margarita? Marmorita. Not a pizza or cocktail, yet a younger guy who gave us longer dance. Now coming back home, she used a scale to find the title.

Hello again, lady’s tresses. Mei-Shun loves this flower who shares microorganisms with lawn. Thanks to recent humid air, Shin gives up mowing half of our garden. He never cares other plants grow there, while another half is treated by mom-in-law. And she discarded “natural arrangement” in a pot her daughter-in-law brought downstairs during repaint of our house walls.
水無月=minazuki, meaning current month, calls one of Shin and Mei-Shun’s favorite sweets. Kyoto people enjoy it on June 30th to celebrate safe half an year. Above couple, earnest buff of our ancient capital, followed this custom for a decade. However, the husband brought home the other day a lot of souvenir from 能登 — suffering from a serious earthquake on New Year’s Day.
