Mei-Shun made a new rule: walking on days when she does not go for horsey riding. During recent severe summer, she perspires with no exercise. Or such activity is advised to refrain from, never serves for muscle building. Thanks to cool evening, she enjoyed looking around 乙戸沼 Pond on foot today after 4 months. Oh, beautiful 5th crescent welcomes her and Mikan-chan back home.

After 7Y + 25Wks
Standard… and 3 days have passed since Mei-Shun left the hospital when Dr. A kindly gave her a “Yes” phone call this afternoon. The former lady said that next CT scheduled on 14th, March 2023 could be the last. Well, that scanning is no burden if added to one of half-an-year checks. And her body under neck, above legs are precisely examined. Only good things it has.
After 7Y + 24Wks
StandardMei-Shun saw Dr. A for a half-an-year check today. There were many outpatients at the hospital, forced her to make a queue for every procedures. Ah, next week has two of our national holidays including Respect-for-the-Aged Day, that might be why. A room to take blood samples were full of elder people. They are lively enough to come here, while most of inpatients are not.
Bite at Night
StandardDo you kind followers like to have sweets a bit before going to bed? Shin and Mei-Shun do, or are forced to when a gift from a client of the husband is due within that day. And it seems practical for him to eradicate rice, the most loved food from every meal. On the other hand, the wife was satisfied with numbers on a scale. She therefore might deserve it even if failed in dance with horseies.
Japanese Culture@holiday
StandardThis is Mountain Day, one of the last national holidays set in Heisei era. We adults have obon summer vacation from August 13th to 16th, while children for as long as one and a half month from the end of July. The former Mei-Shun has a few spots between right fingers, became aware of several scores to play Ms. Piano make her feel itchy. Tempo does not matter, yet fingering.
Safe Schedule
StandardMei-Shun saw her home dentist Dr. M in the evening. The former patient asked to change a reservation previously set at the end of last month — scared if such torrid weather might burn her in daytime. However, it has become much cooler from last week thanks to our friend Typhoon Aere. There was no problem in her mouth, while a little on the way to home with a slight traffic jam.
Cool Crescent
Standard晴耕雨読 means “sunlight to work outdoors, rainfall to read indoors”. However, this torrid week gave Mei-Shun an antonym — she studied at home to avoid sunburn and other troubles, went shopping after showers including one by hand. Such an occasion teaches how much every horsey works to get her in shape. 松の緑 also helps, while never depending on weather.
Single Smile
StandardSo this is the end of solar June or 水無月=minazuki that Shin and Mei-Shun enjoyed one of their favorite seasonal delicacies, called the same as above month. They wish the other half of 2022 would be prosperous and felicitous for you kind 473 followers as well. Actually the wife is not sure if she deserves sweets at night: she was forced to cancel lessons at her horsey riding club by the severe heat.
Double D’s?
StandardLunar May starts from today. Mei-Shun dropped in above shrine, after driving Shin toward the nearest station, to make a wish to Gods while draw omikuji lots. She is quite busy this morning — appointment with her home dentist Dr. M follows at 10 : 15, with Ame-chan on her lower left jaw fell from a real molar just yesterday. A dermatologist is also expected to see her if she could reach his clinic in time.
Snowy & Shiny
StandardPrincess Maria, great to see and dance with you again. It took as long as 3 weeks for Mei-Shun to recover from her horribly red right eye. Pink cherry blossoms around the field have all gone, left just one tree of wilder breed full of white flowers. It assembles you, honey, whose scar above left eyelid has been cured to be covered up brilliantly by your summer coat.
