Splendid Summer

Standard

Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun missed you, Mr. MATSURI. Rainfall, heatstroke alert and allergy for her mom prevented them from trying dance again with the gentlest horseies including him, Mademoiselle Angel and Mr. Marumorita. It is nicely cool today, made preparation quite easier. Hereafter toward the middle of September, one instructor and student would share only 30-minute lesson a day with one horsey.

Easy Eyes

Standard

Mei-Shun changed one of her 2 glasses into biofocals. It is convenient while requires a kind of education: her brain takes a second to move from looking far away toward close. A mild shop clerk advised her on this point, saying she should keep calm even if blurred sight gives a little shock. Well, once she gets used to it, Ms. Piano keys seem to come nearer by. Lighter weight alleviates pressure on her nose.

Keep Kanon

Standard

Mei-Shun feels content to see that great score composed by Master J. Pachelbel again. Compared to others including “Le Cygne”, “Habanera”, “La Cinquantaine”, “Pavane pour une Infante Défunte”, etc., it flows so nice that gives her joy of dulcet melody. And please listen, it was ending music aired after she played the role of Petruchio in “The Taming of the Shrew” by Master Shakespeare.

Joy of Appetite: 1

Standard

Mei-Shun dined with niece M-chan this evening. The former saw her home dentist Dr. M in the morning, dropped in a bakery. Since she overslept to pass breakfast, nice lunch pleased her refreshed teeth and mouth. Now which superb menu would follow here? Garlic shrimp is recommendation of the latter lovely, all right. Attached is a glass of tea lemonade whose color would change …

Joy of Plum: 1

Standard

We have 雨水=usui, the 2nd of vernal and whole 二十四節気 today. Mei-Shun drove Ms. Scarlet heading a cafe to see M-chan. On the way to there, the former aunt dropped in a repair shop. When she walked toward a hair salon last month, a pair of short boots warned her of their trouble: tiny rubber parts under high heels were almost worn out. “I found a good guy for it”, that kind beautician said.

Another Appointment

Standard

… at a cafe Mei-Shun enjoyed on weekend again. Or precisely, just a few steps from there with Professor M: that Chinese restaurant seems to serve for smaller cars than Ms. Scarlet. Only a piece of paper could slip out of her doors. She therefore exchanged car parks toward above place. After baked sandwiches, her dessert came to the table followed by his green tea ice cream.

Crystal Clear

Standard

Mei-Shun received a new “night guard” meaning a mouthpiece from Dr. M. Her previous and white one was formed 5 years before, when she still had Ame-chan on right upper jaw. It is amazing how fast medical technology advances: the latter seems much bigger. Such improvement makes it easier to keep putting on, would lead to better environment in mouth as well.

Pretty Profile

Standard

We have 立冬=ritto, the 1st of winter 二十四節気 today. Cool wind blows from the north, lets Mei-Shun feel that 2024 gives clear changes between 4 seasons. On August 7th 立秋=risshu for example, air got quite softer after 16 : 00 when Mikan-chan and she enjoyed dancing with horsey guys. Long summer returning over and over in daytime, it seemed to have decided to leave around 秋分=shubun.

Trick or Treat

Standard

Yes, good boys and girls. Please listen, a weather forecaster said that we have humidity below 40% after 4 months in Tokyo today. It is suitable to hang futon mats outdoors, one of Mei-Shun’s favorite housework. When she brought Princess Cymby indoors, tiny 2 buds were found growing. A short rainbow was seen from Ms. Scarlet driven to meet Dr. W, her home doctor.

Potent Pink

Standard

Mei-Shun goes to horsey riding clubs 4 days this week; Monday, Wednesday and Friday to Tsukuba, only Thursday 龍ヶ崎. We say 天高く馬肥える秋=sky is high, horses gain weight in autumn, meaning joy of current season perhaps. Yes, she would love to accept it. Still with a piece of summer, daytime flies. May she follow you making best use of shorter daylight, Momo-chan?
