It seems most women like to see mirrors, yet not for Mei-Shun right now. Shin noticed yesterday morning that she had reddish eyes, especially in the left. Her home ophthalmologist Dr. S diagnosed it as subconjunctival hemorrhage, which would take approx. 2 weeks to heal. Such a horrible look prevents her from going out. Just stay at home, play with Ms. Piano, it might say.

Beautiful Dreamer
StandardToday means Cat’s Day, yet let Mei-Shun talk about a horse girl. Actually, she made a break falling from Dreamer’s back last Wednesday. Fortunately, excellent work of an airbag vest prevented any trouble. She only felt a slight stiffness at the back of her neck for a few hours after that accident. Sorry, honey, it must have frightened you so much.
A Big Tyre
Standard… Mei-Shun has grown around her waist. It occurs every year actually, since she has too much sweets, feasts and alcohol of great taste from the end of December to the middle of January. Now she started to reduce carbo, her favorite, in diet. It is the most feared to get weight back immediately, so good cooking to enjoy every necessary nutrient is the key.
Horse in the Rain
StandardThey looked quite all right. It was Mei-Shun whose concentration wondered around the elliptical riding ground, going counterclockwise. She likes to see rainy sight, hesitates to step into it without any gears. However, Shin and mom-in-law never share her feeling — could you stop using her favorite umbrella as a walking stick?
Freezing Morning
StandardOur Aladdin stove starved last night. Mei-Shun found it just after taking a bath, set the timer to let him start at 5:00. She wished it worked for left 10 minutes, yet he denied to. It might be the coldest morning of this winter — still in the dark, our gas range made a good job to warm the room while serving us hot tea, soup and lemonade.
Tasty Floor?
StandardMei-Shun spilled olive oil in the kitchen this morning. She was shocked first, and thought after a moment that it was not so awful. This ingredient is not only a great source of unsaturated fat but also reputed as a fine cosmetic. Then why don’t we make up the floor with it? A bit slippery though.
Oooops!
StandardWhile Mei-Shun was enjoying lunch, something strange suddenly joined foods in her mouth. It was a piece of metal, covered the hindmost tooth of the upper right jaw. Oh, again, she thought — it happened last year before the one replaced by a ceramic tooth in autumn. She has to see Dr. M immediately.
Last Mistake?
StandardMei-Shun went to Shinagawa for a haircut and lunch with Shin. He has been in the busiest time of the year. We discussed on the phone to exchange his souvenir from Kyushu and clothes. Mei-Shun prepared it in a small bag, bring it down to the porch and — left it there. Oh- oh.
Tired to Return
StandardJoban Line was troubled yesterday by a collision between a car and a train around 18:00. All trains stopped at the nearest stations, the one Mei-Shun used at Toride. The accident occurred beyond Tsuchiura, so she managed to reach her destination. After leaving train station, she found her car “blocked” by another car. The driver said that the engine suddenly stopped. Mei-Shun tried to get out of the parking, yet had to give up soon — it was too difficult for her. Then a middle-aged man kindly helped us, pushing the broken car while instructing Mei-Shun how to turn the steering wheel. Thanks a lot, she made it.
Oh My Tooth
StandardIt happened again, and at last. A metal covering set on one of Mei-Shun’s teeth jumped out of mouth while flossed. Her home dentist said that it would, anytime or in the future. They talked about a ceramic replacement at that time, with Shin’s kind agreement to finance it. Now Mei-Shun is to make a reservation. So long, partner.
