Pretty Pads

Standard

Purr, I opened 25 flowers of Princess Cymby so far. Mom likes 13, 22 and this number because it sounds like ni-ko, meaning smile in her mother tongue. She recently found that many of my green brothers turn to similar color to me with every kiss of mine. Yes, we share limited power within a throne. Thanks and sorry, I still have 4 buds to touch all 29 paws.

Somehow Sakura

Standard

Mei-Shun walked to the nearest shrine after at least a whole month. It seems better for her to do such light exercise even on a day following horsey riding. When she climbed up stairs leading to the rear gate, a cherry tree caught her eyes — looking pink with no flowers or buds on branches yet. Your preparation to bloom is already on the way, isn’t it? Now a box of omikuji lots is there, to be drawn by herself.

Moon Mystery

Standard

Thank you so much, Professor M, who is always the best in taking photos like above. Expecting this celestial body in full shape tonight, Mei-Shun visited the club to dance with Mr. Great Fighter again. Another partner of trot was Ms. Madoka, never changed in slender figure. One of your moms has got slimmer, yet saw a pinch of sugar on a scale after coming home.

Spring Soon

Standard

We have 節分=setsu-bun, on the border of winter today before 立春=risshun, the 1st of  vernal and all 二十四節気 tomorrow. It is also lunar birthday of Mei-Shun who visited the nearest shrine to greet Gods. Oh, omikuji lots would still be handed by a priest, who was not at a reception desk. He might be preparing to hold a ceremony in the main building, with candles lit and chairs arranged.

Beautiful Baby

Standard

Hi, Mr. Danone Caesar, great to see you again. Mei-Shun designated you, Mr. Applause, Mr. Treasure and Ms. Madoka this month. Do you wonder why? Because she would like to choose friendly partners toward canter dance, brushing up her technique. Please keep a good boy as today, darling. Look, she won the best lottery so far to reserve favorite lessons in March.

Pink Piggy?

Standard

Thanks a million, sweet Mikan-chan. Yes, we are on the 1st of solar February today following yesterday of course. Mei-Shun cleaned up a dining table featuring seasonal celebrations including 干支=12 symbols of the year. Since 2023 is 卯年 to take care of rabbits, please find above her collection from “Arles“, the Netherlands via Shin and the same made in Fukushima.

Next Number

Standard

Meow, we are on the last day of solar January. Mom seems to have decided what to do first in 2023; to improve horsey-riding technique, to keep herself healthy enough to attend all lessons she reserves. It might have been easy when she was half of her age, yet never right now. If she could complete it in coming three month, second goal would be considered with Ms. Piano. Purr … purrr …

Horsey Highness

Standard

Hello, Mr. Great Fighter, nice to dance with you again. Mei-Shun actually came here only 4 times this month. She must have done twice, yet rain/snowfalls, others came up and her own condition prevented it. That means she got on a scale less — to her relief, nice or so-so numbers appeared there. You have never thought about weight control, slender Ms. Ageha=swallowtail butterfly.

Thrilling Tradition

Standard

Mei-Shun is a sumo wrestling lover. Or precisely, she might take it as a kind of artistic performance on a stage called 土俵=do-hyo ring. Gorgeous costumes 行司=gyoji referees put on, 弓取式=yumi-tori-shiki, bow-taking ritual held by a handsome rikishi warrior attract her eyes. Yes, she would pull sleepy kimonos and obi sashes out of drawers from next bouts in March.

Snowy Strawberry

Standard

Most people of our country saw white Tuesday followed by freezing, stormy Wednesday. Mei-Shun stayed safe at home with Mikan-chan, winning Shin who managed to take an off today to enjoy picking up those ruby fruits with his wife. They drove toward the foot of Mt. Tsukuba, found their usual place closed. Bankruptcy? No-no, just after kindergarten children.
