Light@Night

Standard

Here is a new lamp came to Mei-Shun, actually in summer. Her elder uncle on beloved father’s side passed away in May, yet she could not see him in Kyushu. Mother gave funeral offering on behalf of her daughters, let the widow aunt send brochures of thank-you gifts. There-there, teardrops, please stop falling. Let’s ask this lovely black kitten if she entered Moomin’s House.

It never matters for Master Bando if a Tuesday is 勤労感謝の日, Labor Thanksgiving Day: there are always lessons. Mei-Shun visited her in a T-shirt and jeans today, put on 羽織 kimono jacket on them to dance 松の緑 and 松の寿. Shin continued to work from last night to this morning, could not have let his wife know when he would get on a train. Oh, his message arrived at noon on her phone.

Bon Bonito?

Standard

Meow, it seems to be for Tora-chan, my colleague living downstairs. Dad kindly ordered an assorted package of jelly sticks including sardine, salmon and above flavors when I ate up pH-controlled tuna. Mom has given me 2 of the last per day, aside from energy sticks in tuna and chicken tender respectively. They wished me to find another favorite, yet I’m happy enough just with your love to me.

Meow, this is another day of my breed comes once a month. It is actually a rule mom enacted recently as my voice sounds like “ny-ya”, 2 and 8 read in her language. Vivid sunlight, almost no wind, much more comfortable compared to yesterday. She worked at home all day long, that also makes me satisfied, purr. By the way, one more added to you kind followers here would mean my hiss, 4-4-4.

Water after Water

Standard

Meow, mom rushed out changing pajamas into a T-shirt, returned in an hour and a half yesterday. Vaccination against the novel coronavirus? I heard that my breed could be infected with it as well. That is why dad also got shots months before, had a high fever and a flushed arm. And she looked surprised at numbers on her thermometer this morning, stays all day long with me. Purr …

Japanese Culture@wkday

Standard

This is normally 体育の日=Health and Sports Day, set on the 2nd Monday of October. Still, it was moved toward July 23rd this year by that special event held in Tokyo. Mei-Shun takes it quite nice; with no national holiday yet the novel coronavirus well contracted, compared to above month under a strict state of emergency. Her trot with Princess Maria today was under summer-like sunlight.

Burly Beauty

Standard

Mei-Shun found a white lily blooming on the very edge of shrubbery at the nearest station. Hi, great to see you, who seems similar breed to the ones she missed in 日先=Hino-Saki Shrine garden last month. Do you prefer narrow space? Or strong enough to survive in such a place, that is the better answer. She is looking forward to your sister buds open soon.

Hello, Ms. Sagittarius, great to see you again. Mei-Shun anticipated enjoying dance with you today, yet was forced to give it up by a heavy rainfall. On the other hand, they lately have changed a system at our club: members are required to fill in application forms, appear in person to decide reservation order by lot. Well, we see, yet where did your paperless goal go?

Snail Nail

Standard

Mom, you are allowed to cut tips of my rear paws. On the other hand, front ones should be kept as they like: never try or hear my hiss. I can help them to peel if necessary, so please stop worrying: they hardly hurt my pads to bleed but grow getting rid of them. Oh, you find a shell on the sofa which I often relax on. It reminds you of a flower stem recently finished blooming, doesn’t it?

Shampoo Purr

Standard

Meow, it is really kind of you to wash my coat, mom. And to give my favorite treat between crispy meals as well. Oh, would you already take the next for me? I’m so happy to help you. “Honey, it’s my restroom”, what do you mean? Ah-ha, a corner where you store their boxes has no door. All right, please go ahead. I’ll keep a good girl who never makes a bath mat mine like yesterday.
