Digit Desired

Standard

Mei-Shun visited another horsey riding club in Ibaraki, 龍ヶ崎 to apply for lessons with lovely Mr. Danone Caesar next month. She won No. 15, the best ever from a lottery box; they fill member’s schedule according to it. Ms. Scarlet then turned to a supermarket nearby the shrine Shin and his wife often walk toward. Oh, No. 8 大吉= the luckiest omikuji appeared for him.

Amicable April

Standard

Mei-Shun safely let Mademoiselle Vert and Princess Cymby go outdoors last week. Her instruction book for orchids recommends to do so, after night temperature is kept above 12 degrees Celsius. 2024 February and March seemed like exchanged with each other; the coldest former had a few 夏日= days above 25C, the warmer latter did several 冬日= below 0C.

Joy of Aquarium: 1

Standard

Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun visited Aquamarine Fukushima on weekend. There are idols living in the sea for the wife; one is colorful and lovely balls shown above, while the other thin mirrors. The latter has no scale, said too delicate to keep in a fish tank. It is therefore thanks to excellent expertise accumulated by that institution. By the way, other icons were added to her list following soon.

Amicable A-chan

Standard

Shin and Mei-Shun walked to the nearest shrine on weekend, enjoyed an enormous carpet made of cherry petals. On the way to there, they found wild flowers in various colors including pink, blue, violet, yellow and one in Mikan-chan’s name of course. Elder 狛犬 helped the wife to greet Gods before drawing an omikuji lot. She had 小吉, a little lucky while the husband better 吉.

Breakfast Biggest

Standard

I and mom danced with Mrs. White Mocha and Crunchy today, purr. We plan to upgrade lessons from current basic to advanced ones, held in wider field. On the other paw, after going home full of delight, she got on a scale to find shocking numbers: they are just at maximum she allows to herself. She therefore has to review her methods including 8 hours, candy first, title above, etc.

Little Laborer

Standard

Mei-Shun’s left pinkie seems to have 90% recovered. Almost no pain any more, she tried Ms. Piano last night after dancing with Mr. White Mocha. Smallest among five, it hardly works alone while helps others a lot. Especially when she holds heavy items like Mr. Sirius — her hands lift it onto his back with all 8 larger family members balanced well by 2 babies.

Windy Weekday

Standard

Our fiscal 2023 is heading toward the end. Dad stays in Okinawa from yesterday, I and mom at home today. Momo-chan, our garden princess of bright pink is in 50% blossom. She is stormy outdoors, I am safe indoors, purr. On the other paw, rainfalls prevent us from dancing with horseies. Kimono would come to you instead, won’t it? Floor vacuuming is the first, I see.

Double Dance

Standard

千穐楽, the last and 15th day of sumo bouts was held on Sunday. Mei-Shun put on kimono, found herself in difficulty a bit. That may mean weight control goes well, yet also she has kept a kind of distance from this charming costume. All right, she would set a new 晴耕雨読 rule; to wrap it around waist indoors, instead of dancing with horseies outdoors in sunny days.

Regular Residents

Standard

Mei-Shun cleaned up a table full of tiny items including dried flowers, photos and works by Kaori-san. Solar and lunar days of Christmas, New Year and family birthday have all passed, our fiscal year would start soon. It was just before leaving for Osaka on weekend, let her feel refreshed. 3 cats made of 桐のこ=kiri-no-ko, paulownia chips always stay here, never depending on 干支 of the year.

Butterbur Bud

Standard

Mei-Shun visited her parents’ home after 2 months since she did with Shin during 三が日=the 1st 3 days of the New Year. This time found another family; elder sister Y who lives nearby above place, mother of M-chan. It might take 2 years for these 3 women to gather again: pandemic prevented younger daughter from regular visit. Now would you join us, dad?
