Two Types
StandardMei-Shun walked to a hair salon this morning. It takes only 5 minutes, while an hour by train for the other in Tokyo she visited last week. A woman managing the former, dyes only; a guy working for the latter, cuts and curls her longs cheveux. She likes plants and pottery, always serves nice tea. He studies well on beautician science and technology, gives proper advice.
Great Guys
StandardAccording to net news, all wrestlers belonging to 二所ノ関部屋 would attend today an entertainment sumo held in 龍ヶ崎 City which accommodates Mei-Shun’s horsey riding club. Actually, they informed Shin on it in May. He and his wife considered if they visit a gymnasium serves for this rare event, concluded not to. Her favorite rikishi would be absent, either.
Turtle or Tortoise
Standard番付表 for the next basho of sumo wrestling arrived at Mei-Shun’s hands, sent from 二所ノ関部屋. Oh, 3 ex-大関 including her favorite are all single-digit 前頭 ranks.

At least 3 days on 初日 July 9th, 中日 16th and 千秋楽 23rd. 千”穐”楽 is always employed by above stable.
Musical Memory

It was also a start of rainy season which once had been said to have wrapped up in just 3 weeks. Sky is full of gray clouds today, sometimes sheds drops on train windows.

Look, she won the best lottery so far to reserve favorite lessons in March.
Next Number

Mom seems to have decided what to do first in 2023; to improve horsey-riding technique, to keep herself healthy enough to attend all lessons she reserves. It might have been easy when she was half of her age, yet never right now. If she could complete it in coming three month, second goal would be considered with Ms. Piano. Purr … purrr …
