… artificial cats called this morning, on Mei-Shun’s mobile phone. Aha, it is because of February 9th, read 肉球=niku-kyu in numbers by our mother tongue. Precisely 2-9-9, yet there is no 29th month or 99th date; both on solar and lunar calendars. It is better anyway to stay home for her daughter currently on Princess Cymby with 17 flowers, and herself today.
We have 立春=risshun, the 1st of vernal and whole 二十四節気 today. Did you kind 528 followers call 鬼は外=Bad luck out, 福は内=Good one in, spreading roasted soy beans yesterday? Since Shin returned home late at night, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun passed this custom on 節分. Princess Cymby, all the same days with flower numbers of Your Highness have passed.
I’ve come back to mom and dad on Princess Cymby, purr. My first one actually bloomed on 23rd, Kaori-san’s birthday. She is one of mom’s closest friends, perhaps misses Mr. Long-jing; her fluffy son of my breed. We wish our little present sent on above day to serve for her smile. I also contribute to grandma and aunt living far away, both first-named Y.

We have 大寒=daikan, the 6th of winter while genuine last among 二十四節気 today. It means the coldest time in a year, might come true – a cold wave has come down from north, with freezing air to cover our Honshu. Quite dry as well, Mei-Shun cleared footing oasis for Mademoiselle Orange. She pulled 5 biggest roses, hang them next to Md. Rouge members.
… in the morning Mei-Shun would mean. She found the former float in western sky when drove Shin toward the nearest station. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, 初場所 of sumo wrestling started yesterday when that celestial beauty was 下弦 clear half shape. Her favorite rikishi won his first 白星 within the highest 幕内 rank, after as long as 545 days.
Have you kind 528 followers already greeted Gods during 三が日? Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun did on 2nd after seeing mother of the wife. A maiden in white kimono and red 袴=hakama pants sat beside a big omikuji box, handed them all the same lots; No. 30 末吉=the least lucky. They always bind such slips onto a tree branch, tried again on Sunday to see 吉=lucky.
Here Mikan-chan, Shin and Mei-Shun celebrate wedding anniversary of the latter parents. Teardrops stopped falling in the morning when a big delivery box for above arrangement, while resumed after dark. It nearly washed containers full of Christmas feasts, whose ingredients come from both ground and sea. Now a handmade chiffon cake is also ready. Shall we start a little party?
Shin heads toward Taipei on business. Mei-Shun always checks his flight online, found the same Chinese characters as the place in our country above couple and Mikan-chan recently visited. However, plane icons have gone halfway even reaching arrival. What is going on for dad, fluffy girl? Oh, it takes one more hour by a time difference. Then kind 528 followers, please relax to enjoy their memory image.
Princess Cymby grows only one flower bud this winter. Sorry, Mei-Shun has no technique for daily record of Your Highness, showing enough how cute she is. Black Tea in our garden therefore appears on her behalf – difference between highest/lowest temperature counts more than 15 degrees Celsius these days, might contribute to their longevity. You are easier to catch, honey.
So December on solar calendars, the last month of the year, nicely started from Monday. Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun visited Tsukuba horsey riding club, felt happy dancing with Mr. MATSURI or Monsieur Fête. 小春日和, spring-like weather let them leave a thick jacket in Ms. Scarlet. Most trees along streets have already taken off their colourful coats, while some still put them on.
