Mei-Shun read that her favorite wrestler appeared safely on foot to 国技館 where a rikishi meeting was held the other day. Most of his colleagues had thought he would be absent from it, gave him warm welcome. According to 番付表 of next 九月場所 sent from kind 二所ノ関部屋, he falls toward 2nd highest 十両 rank. “My authentic story starts from here”, he told a reporter who visited 高砂 stable.
Yesterday celebrated Mountain Day, on Sunday to let us feel happier replaced by this Monday. It would lead toward obon holidays from 13th to 16th, the latter on Friday that counts serial 9 days in total. Mei-Shun would like to relax while practice kabuki dance in yukata. If possible she means, still with heat rash on her left shin — sounds better starting in a capital letter.
Mei-Shun washed a yukata to put on after bath. It came from 浜松 she visited with Shin decades before. They stayed at a hotel featuring music, since above city accommodates a famous maker of musical instruments including piano of course. Full of scores and notes, it served well until getting 半襟 collar worn out. Mom-in-law kindly sewed it up using a 手拭 towel.
千穐楽, the last and 15th day of sumo bouts was held on Sunday. Mei-Shun put on kimono, found herself in difficulty a bit. That may mean weight control goes well, yet also she has kept a kind of distance from this charming costume. All right, she would set a new 晴耕雨読 rule; to wrap it around waist indoors, instead of dancing with horseies outdoors in sunny days.
Or 衿芯 Mei-Shun ordered via Shin. When the wife won a pair of seats at 九州場所, she actually meant to put on a kimono. However, her favorite rikishi got injured during 巡業 training tour to be absent at 土俵 ring of the 1st day 初日. She therefore prepared above one for the 8th 中日 he appeared — oh? What is going on within 半襟 over 肌襦袢 underwear, wavy behind neck?
The only sad matter for Mei-Shun regarding current 九州場所 was absence of her favorite rikishi. They say he was injured in a leg during 巡業 tour held in October. So hard a job it is, building strong muscle and mind simply coated by their own fat. She therefore cheered all wrestlers, putting on a 羽織 jacket. Now it is over, let’s go to a restaurant serving longtooth grouper loved by above guys.
Real autumn finally began. Mei-Shun puts on a cotton yukata, summer kimono after shampoo these days. It is the way people did in Edo Period (1603-1867) when they normally go to public baths. Hmm, silk ones might have to wait 2 weeks ahead; we still see 25 degrees Celsius in daytime. Was October so warm 7 years before for us, in intensive practice of 汐汲, Master Mei-Shu?
According 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.
Mei-Shun enjoyed sumo wrestling on TV yesterday, when it was 千穐楽=the last day of 15-day match. With Shin’s birthday on lunar calendar as well, she vacuumed all rooms before putting on kimono. Oh, 3 rikishi of 3rd highest 幕下 rank, belonging to 二所ノ関部屋 succeeded in 勝ち越し meaning 4 or more wins. 2nd highest 十両 one also did by 10 wins, while her favorite of other stable won 8 in the highest 幕内.
Meow, one of mom’s favorite sports started in Nagoya from Sunday. And it is yesterday when 2 of our 3 air conditioners stopped cooling: their outdoor units are set on the roof floor. Since main goals of current repair include leakage avoidance, they need to be removed until next week. She therefore gave up putting on a yukata given by beloved Master Mei-Shu on 16th 中日.
