Happy birthday, Professor M. He had traveled around continents on business, returned our country last week. Mei-Shun actually sent him an arrangement cherry branches are included during his trip – a flower shop in charge informed her on his absence at home. “All right, we would try again by another for free”, the owner said via phone. Oh, amorous Freesia refracta is attending spring princess.
雪柳=snowy willow in our garden looks happier this year: mom-in-law cut it a bit too much to give its normal figure. However, she stopped such job for several years; that is why it weeps more than half, facing sunlight. By the way, there was a little change on Mei-Shun’s scale as well. In spite of no horsey riding, daily exercise and eating control might let her keep tolerable weight.
I and mom visited our Tsukuba horsey riding club, not for lessons yet locker cleaning. Hi, Mr. Marumorita, standing by another person in preparation. We noticed your recent promotion: joined the most expensive friends. Here is a small congratulatory gift of apple peel from dad, wishing nice dance with you next month. Now we drop in this shop, treating ourselves to rice crackers.

Mei-Shun received an e-message from her only niece M-chan. The latter will soon become senior at University of Tsukuba, currently in the middle of job seeking. Or at the end of it, since she had promised to contact auntie when content results won. That might be why Mikan-chan opened her last and 22nd paw on Princess Cymby. Now which restaurant above hearty eater choose?
… we could not expect tonight, while above 馬酔木=Japanese andromeda flourishes. It actually went to mother of Mei-Shun from mom-in-law, exchanged with a 沈丁花=daphne in our garden. Pink clusters might keep celebrating ひな祭り=Doll’s Festival, for 2 girls lived there decades before. 2026 saw younger one of them enjoy 花きび=sugary popcorn instead of ひなあられ sweet rice cracker.
Mei-Shun did today, as one walking toward nearby hair salon in high heels. She was a bit in a hurry, did not recognize sweet scent of this white plum. Hello, Madame Blanche, it seems your colour is often seen this year. After a cup of tea at home, she changed into jeans and trainers. The other workout heading the nearest shrine resulted in 吉 for Shin with her 小吉.
… 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.
