Meow-meow, 12 months all have my day. February is the most famous among fanciers of my species, while mom takes it special every month. However, she went out to see horsey from 9 : 00. I am so much a good girl, started relaxation time on the roof floor. Dad stayed waiting for a parcel, departed soon to let me alone. It is warm today, gave me a comfortable nap until mom returned before sunset. Purrr …

Plum blossom was almost over and 白木蓮=haku-mokuren, magnolia would follow. Horsetails also does on the way to the nearest shrine, where Mei-Shun lately drew an omikuji lot saying she has the least luck. Since someone might deceive her into trouble, she must be wary to recognize good or bad ones. Well, a difficult mission — there is nobody pernicious closely around her.
Sakura, cherry on Mei-Shun’s obi sash tonight. Cymbidium ladies still kept fresh. Momo-chan, our garden princess looks to be in a hurry to dance (please don’t, honey). In spite of red arrows on today’s weather forecast map, they are all calm in a breeze. Hi, Mikan-chan, are these flowers too warm to take a nap under? Mom would be happy to accompany you on crisps.
We have 啓蟄=keichitsu, the 3rd of spring 二十四節気 today. Mei-Shun felt it in warm wind while walking around 乙戸沼. It never hit her ears trying to freeze them, gives a soft touch instead. Hi, waterfowls, great to see you again. Swans look to have departed toward the north already, yet you kindly waited for her. Oh, fulica atra, thanks for showing your long legs.
Mom told me it is today, meow-meow-meow. Since it has been sunny and warm for these 2 weeks, I feel better than last month. Other news regarding our species follow: 1. Tora-chan, my colleague living in the garden surprised mom putting off a neck belt made of artificial skin. 2. One of Tora-chan’s friends often occupies her bed. They closely resemble each other, might be a mother and a child, dad says.

… of effective private lesson by Ms. I Mei-Shun received today. She lately began to understand the reason why many members of our club, including those who have even 3rd grade certificate of horsey-riding technique, return to gallop in narrow circles. Since only one-3rd number of lessons are served for those above 4th graders like herself, even a wide-square field are always full of Mr. and Ms. Sagittarius.
You finally bloomed in full. With you 13 sisters, the only scape of this winter looks so heavy. However, Mei-Shun knows that for such one full of flowers, pot is the best place to keep fresh. Please, therefore, give us your patience a bit more. Since last night saw the second snow which covered all outdoors, you can enjoy sight of curious cat and watered friends for a while.
You kind followers missed me? Thanks a lot for your warm remembering me for weeks. I have been … well, so-so. 2nd and 3rd weeks of this month were quite comfortable. It might be because mom went out less: her absence makes me stay on the sofa almost awake, eat little, just wait for her coming home. However, she left me alone all through this week, hiss! Health of our family is the 1st, isn’t it?
Can you hold me?
… then I would come out.
Purrrrr …

Thank you so much, Shin, for your never-to-change mind toward Mei-Shun. Hi, Mikan-chan, you like these roses as well? Shade between salmon pink and orange, flower bowl in your coat color while showing their coming wedding anniversary, the husband completely made it. And oh, the wife won the “fève” in her annual pie. Let her put on a golden crown to be today’s queen.
Princess Maria, you look sooo charming with Mei-Shun’s gift on forehead. Is your leg all right? Kindly listen, she has a dream. If timing comes, she would like to be your mom. She also wishes to name you in Japanese 手毬=temari, meaning a ball with colorful embroidery, on the top of candidate list. That is why the last “A” of your current name is expressed by an upside-down heart.
