Mei-Shun feels a bit confused. Why do they say that 2023 rainy season “seemed to” start yesterday almost clear, not today with a heavy rainfall from early morning? Well, different from her childhood, weather forecasts never declare it. Beloved father, you preferred sunny weekends to play golf. Your younger daughter does on weekdays to dance with horseies, not in kimono.
Shining Silver
StandardMei-Shun resumed French and Spanish radio lessons from Monday. Absent for half an year, yet it was amazing that she has not forgotten the latter so much. Precisely, she has studied the former since a university student, while 4 and 3 grades held by APEF were gained after she moved to Ibaraki. Just 15 minutes spent for each anyway, such practice makes her weekdays more satisfactory.
Pottery Place
StandardMei-Shun came back toward this hair salon, a 5-minute walk from home: she was troubled a little here actually in April. Learning from the 1st candidate shop nearer-by, she told about her problem to the owner lady at the 2nd. “As for dyeing, my advice is to see your accustomed beautician again”, she said. “If you would like cut and shampoo only, we require no reservation”. How convenient it sounds!
Jujube June
StandardHappy birthday daddy, purr. It is great pleasure of mine and mom to celebrate the day you were born. For mom’s mom-in-law living downstairs the same of course, looks happy cooking much. He planted 棗=natsu-me, named because they give leaf buds in summer, both outdoors and indoors. The former is a young tree purchased in our country, the latter fresh fruits he brought from China.

Gekko Gecko
StandardWe have a full and Strawberry Moon last night, when Mei-Shun tried to take good shots of it. It was quite difficult for this poor photographer, while her skillful phone suddenly worked after a few second. Hmm, it seems to remove clouds aiming light only. Your kind help was highly appreciated. Now a shutter would cover the window — hi, here is a tiny guest. Please enjoy a sojourn until tomorrow morning.
Sumo Storm
StandardMei-Shun finally received above item this rainy morning. Thanks a lot, a delivery person who put a towel on the box. Her prescription would be recorded here soon, covered by tough guardians. Oh? “SKIYAKI” is retailer’s name. Where is U after S to mean that popular cuisine in our country? Or designers at this company prefer winter sports to their business?
Two Twins
StandardMei-Shun makes it a rule these days to put Mademoiselle Vert on verandah floor when it rains. Natural watering seems much better, encourages buds to open one after another. You are so sweet bringing emerald eyes of Mikan-chan, honey. Now you have 14 flowers followed by 5, yet there is no need to be in a hurry. Please get enough rest, and stay with her as long as possible.
Rosy Guy?
StandardSolar May ends within today, expecting lunar one in the middle of next month. After rainy morning, Mei-Shun met a young postman at the porch, who handed mails and asked her if above image is a rose. Of course it is, yet such a question sounds quite weird. “My parents’ garden accommodates climbing roses only, I saw a bush for the first time”, he explained. So experience depends.
Hydrangea Highness
StandardPrincess Violet, welcome back to our garden. Mei-Shun is pleased to see her safely bloom this year: mom-in-law is so earnest to cut her into a round shape that often removes baby buds. Flowers therefore greet them every other year here, while another with lace caps gives annual blossom in the southern corner. Yes, both of them are messengers of rainy season.
Bright Blue
StandardThanks a trillion, Kaori-san. I would convey great gratitude to you on behalf of mom, for sending her a lovely work featuring a long-hair girl called ネコノセさん=Ms. Cat Cap and a brown friend of mine. Drawn on a piece of 越前和紙, she has a teardrop on left cheek where kitty’s tail hanging along. Do they float in the sky? That might let us know the reason for such a brilliant color.
