They are written, while read shin-kan-sen, the same as our bullet train. One of Shin’s buffs lives in Tottori Prefecture sent him this box of juicy pears, as much as 14. He kindly left Mei-Shun with all of them, except for just 1 for mom-in-law. Here vegetable-fruit drawer of Ms. Cuby, or a refrigerator the former uses, has become a temporary orchard.
Hello friend, welcome back to Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun. The husband just went aboard an airplane for Tokyo from Mumbai, when the wife noticed you on a tiny kitchen window. It works as your dinner plate, doesn’t it? Please go ahead, letting her take several photos. Although your back looks like a fallen leaf, it turns toward shining white in tummy. All fingers are tipped with pearl beads.
We have 立秋=risshu, the 1st of autumnal 二十四節気 today. It really does; cool wind, gray sky, drizzle before noon. Mei-Shun got on Ms. Scarlet who comes from northern Europe, sounds quite relieved. Her worst malfunction occurred last year might be caused by our summer becoming more and more torrid, year after year. Shall we drop in one of the best bakeries returning home?
So we are at the end of solar July. Mei-Shun noticed that 2025 has 2 lunar June; normal one started 25th last month, the other 閏 on the recent same date. That gave 3 birthdays to Shin, let his wife celebrate them serving various salad plates. By the way, it seems to be the hottest with 11 consecutive heatstroke alert. Nothing aired this morning, cooler gift from Typhoon Krosa.
… June starts from today. Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun got on Ms. Scarlet, whose thermometer showed incredible 43 degrees Celsius, toward their 2nd horsey riding club. Princess Maria, we have endured sweltering 6 days since last Sunday. Please let them return home, yet with an appointment to see you again a month later. They dropped in the nearest shrine, drew 大吉 and 吉 omikuji lots.
Hello, Princess Maria or 手鞠姫. It is great pleasure of Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun to trot with you again. Please listen, they say that rainy season 2025 is over. It has been on and off, given both heavy storms and sultry heat waves. We hope it finally resulted in fine precipitation accompanied by good crops — well, are Your Highness ready for a lesson in cooler breeze?
Such an idea suddenly came to Mei-Shun, who had a reservation for Mr. Marumorita this afternoon. At 10 : 00 however, heatstroke alert was aired to let her cancel it. Now what would she do instead? Booking system online says that her beautician is available. All right, shall we leave a bit earlier and drop in a department store, Mikan-chan? Or you prefer cooler home?
Solar July starts, expecting rainfalls which we have not seen since the latter half of previous month. Mei-Shun is getting better for right arm, had almost no problem putting on long sleeves yesterday. She recognized a bit green sky and colder wind in the afternoon, took futon mats and blankets into bedroom. Thunderstorm soon followed, kindly watered dry plants.
Lunar June starts from today. Mei-Shun visited Tsukuba horsey riding club, saw her primary instructor Ms. I with refreshments. They talked about schedule forward instead of a lesson: stormy weather made the field rice paddy. Now the former turns toward Dr. W, followed by the nearest shrine to greet Gods and draw omikuji lots. No. 1 大吉=the luckiest has come for Shin.
Mei-Shun has got a big strawberry on right arm; allergy caused by an insect bite, her home dermatologist Dr. N diagnosed yesterday. The latter gentle lady works for a clinic Dr. I manages on Mondays and Tuesdays, often sees the former patient who reported on her experience in the garden. “Smaller one is on thumb”, she added before receiving a prescription including pills.
