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. Although with no plan of visiting torrid Nagoya City, she would be happy to put on yukata, summer kimono as rikishi do. 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
StandardMei-Shun practices “Clair de Lune” composed by Master Debussy, her favorite almost every day. It is because even a day off seems to deprive her of its tune, flow and notes. Although the same occur in others, her attention is on that simple and beautiful score right now. Lunar May started from yesterday, let her sing with Ms. Piano both above and another by Master Beethoven.
Tiny Tour
StandardMei-Shun went to a hair salon nearby Tokyo Station for almost once-an-year curling. Yes, she had it on Shin’s birthday June 6th last year. 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. Ushiku Pond, a chimney shaped like a big cup noodle and Skytree all look fine.
Hasty Heroine
StandardThis is Girl’s Day, festival with dolls in kimono and peach flowers. Mei-Shun saw so-so numbers on a scale yesterday, pleased to celebrate her younger days with sweets including 水戸の梅 and のし梅, souvenir from Shin. Well, ume is a bit different from above 桃=momo while in the same family. 桜=sakura is as well, while she does not know which covers 芝桜, moss phlox.
Beautiful Baby
StandardHi, Mr. Danone Caesar, great to see you again. Mei-Shun designated you, Mr. Applause, Mr. Treasure and Ms. Madoka this month. Do you wonder why? Because she would like to choose friendly partners toward canter dance, brushing up her technique. Please keep a good boy as today, darling. Look, she won the best lottery so far to reserve favorite lessons in March.
Next Number
StandardMeow, we are on the last day of solar January. 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 …

Celebration Continues
StandardYes, it does for Mei-Shun until lunar Christmas Day next year. On the other hand, she recognizes that most people in our country immediately turn to new-year preparation after that day on solar calendar. Moreover, many of them take December 24th main — including mom-in-law who replaces garden bells and ribbons by pine branches on 25th.
Day to Dance
StandardIt has become rare for Mei-Shun, just sometimes with Princess Maria. Actually, she stopped reserving canter lessons from last month, caused by a kind of slump. Perhaps knowing reasons, she asked a chief instructor Mr. S to give her effective private lessons instead of ones in a group. It would start after 11th, December when she finish a Spanish examination.
Seasonal Sakura
StandardWe have 立冬=ritto, the 1st of winter 二十四節気 today. Well, it might be real this year — Mei-Shun sees these days a thermometer of Ms. Scarlet point below 10 degrees Celsius in early morning and late at night. However, still a beginning of November turns it up to around 20 degrees in daytime. She therefore has to bring a jacket into horsey riding field, choose if put it on or off.
Smoggy Skytree
StandardMei-Shun went to a hair salon nearby Tokyo Station after a few days more than 2 whole months. With a slight rain, it was not the best for treatment yet cool enough to set bangs again. 牛久 Pond was halcyon as usual, a chimney of a famous noodle maker was working well. However, it was not easy to catch that 634-meter high broadcast tower whose top fully covered by grey clouds.
