Mei-Shun visited a 祇園さん or 八坂神社 shrine branch in Tsuchiura the other day: she purchased a 粽 of 大船鉾 online this year as well, brought back 2025’s one. A sourcebook regarding that artistic float was published; let her learn its history, enjoy manifold photos. For example, ancient 四条町 was divided into 南北 to put 大金幣 and 龍頭 dragon head on the bow.

Grand Greeting
StandardMei-Shun found a rainbow in eastern sky around 17:00 yesterday. It might be the hottest, while started shedding gentle tears. Solar July 30th saw Master Mei-Shu depart, let her last 名取 send a bouquet to Mr. O every year. Oh, l’arc-en-ciel became doubled! And a pretty egret, messenger birdy, flew toward it. That means you safely received her admiration and affection, doesn’t it?
Mongolian M-chan
StandardYes, Mei-Shun’s only niece currently stays in that country. When they met at a restaurant 2 weeks before, she told the former aunty about this program. “Working at a farm for an orphanage will serve as university credit”, she said. You are so generous, honey, to have sent a photo of horseies; quite missed by a rider, whose health/weight control gets along.
Divine Dance
StandardI and mom enjoyed a longer drive yesterday, compared to hers these days. She let me into a restaurant for lunch, not wait within Ms. Scarlet like at horsey riding clubs. What did that mean? I’m always stay with you, mom. “However, she might come back in her own breed soon”, not on orchid ladies, dad implied. Take a deep breath; gaze, listen and catch my paw and purr.

Flower Fancier
StandardMei-Shun talked with mother on phone, for around an hour: their topic is always beloved father, who passed away today 17 years before. He loved roses, grew various colours next to his handmade golf range. Iris and hydrangea follow in violet/sky blue respectively. Are you interested in this breed with lace caps? Mom-in-law planted it, a gift from her daughter-in-law.
Slim and Shiny
StandardThanks a million, Professor M. Mei-Shun saw above 2nd crescent as well by chance, when she held a shutter over a western window. It seems quite rare to find it so clear: 3rd one, her favorite gives more advent. On the other paw of prettiest Mikan-chan, she would also show gratitude toward our public broadcaster – it featured her pet sumo wrestler even after 17:00, then short news aired.
Bright Blossom
StandardWe are on March 22nd, my day on lunar calendar. Mom purchased an arrangement of red carnation, prepared for coming Sunday. Grandma of her side stays in 草津, who prefers planted flowers to arranged ones. She therefore praises me on Princess Cymby and Mademoiselle Vert every year, purr. The former finished her stage, handed a gold baton toward the latter.

Happy Horsey
StandardIt is prodigious pleasure of Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun to see you, Mr. Marumorita. Longer than 3 months had passed since they danced with you before. However, nothing seemed change – this honest 8-year-old guy starts smoothly, turns toward trot after two third canter in a circle. They enjoyed cool wind, expecting better next time. 山櫻 behind you might be the best today.
Cute Cherry
StandardHappy 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.
Trimmed Tale
Standard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.
