Mei-Shun walked toward a hair salon in high heels. Thunderstorm in daytime washed air and ground, let her feel refreshed. Hello 百日紅=crape myrtle, great to see you again. Your breed blooms later this summer, might prefer higher temperature. She actually worried about your health; a next-door neighbor kept gorgeous one just under her kitchen window, who fell in several years.
… schoolchildren on summer holiday seem like to visit: we have the former day last month, while the latter today. However, Typhoon 15th or Chan-hom over Pacific Ocean heads west, might make the first landfall in Ibaraki Prefecture at night. Shin and Mei-Shun therefore took early care of garden plants; the husband used a lawn mower, the wife fixed Momo-chan babies’ poles.
We expect a 下弦 half moon tonight, while a slight rainfall in the morning led a lot of clouds. Once bright sunshine came onto Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun, then gray sky shed foggy tears. Which scores would the latter choose in such a dizzying change, Ms. Piano? Her normal practice starts from “Clair de Lune” – might always call for that celestial beauty in wet weather.
Yes, it is a young tree mom-in-law planted in our garden. Mei-Shun heard from younger sister-in-law M that her mother loved one of that fruit in winter, tasted very good. She therefore put some seed into a pot, saw green babies. The eldest had grown enough to bloom last spring, further to bear above. “I pollinated it with a flower my research institution gave me”, she said.
We could expect 十日夜の月= 10th moon of to-kan-ya tonight, while a rainfall. Mei-Shun wishes both of them, yet it is quite difficult – a celestial beauty among 3 shapes celebrated for a long time, or merciful water from dark sky. The latter also means Momo-chan mother and daughters enjoy shower twice. Now which scores would she choose on Ms. Piano, great masters?
Oh, clear morning sunshine. Mei-Shun might see it weeks before: 梅雨 rainy season 2026 started on June 7th, keeps so cool that reminds her of childhood. Yes, our nurturing Sun stays in the highest sky at 夏至=geshi, the 4th of summer 二十四節気. Did 織姫 and 彦星 met last night, crossing the Milky Way? At least above clouds, where we expect a 下弦 half moon tonight.
Mei-Shun recognized a slight difference on Ms. Piano: humidity seems to affect her tone. When it reaches more than 70%, she sounds a bit muffled. Such timing makes above player turn on Mr. Air Conditioner in “dry” mode. Ms. T said the minimum condition for this musical instrument is 50%. Now it was lowered toward 60%, the best. Shall we enjoy clearer songs of moonlight?
It rains hard from early morning. Mademoiselle Vert opened all her 19 flowers, enjoying shower outdoors. Mei-Shun brought her indoors when it stopped shedding tears around noon. Now she is ready to practice moonlight scores: it really is 梅雨 this year, who often prevents our seeing that celestial beauty or feeling the longest daytime on 夏至. Would you also continue until the end of solar July?
Hmm, it is cool today. Rainy season 2026 started on 7th, Sunday while seems to take us back toward refreshing solar May. It was so humid in the last week, that horsey riding served a cascade under Mei-Shun’s clothes. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, clouds of her coat shade have covered that celestial beauty for as long as 10 days; including 二十六夜, a thin crescent appeared this dawn.
A typhoon numbered 6th in 2026 traveled through our main island Honshu yesterday. It brought cool air into Kanto region, let Mei-Shun pull long sleeves out of drawers. She practiced preferred scores on Ms. Piano as usual, missing horsey riding a little. However, Wednesdays are the best for seeing those lovely friends. That might be why Jangmi was scheduled to stop her breaking a new rule.
