Mei-Shun found them at an edge of curtain rail bracket in Shin’s study. It was last Thursday, snowed in the morning followed by rainfall in the afternoon. She heard something regular, took it as coming from outdoors and opened shutters. Stayed there for a while, confirmed it stopped, she went back to the kitchen — what a blunder! After dark, it started again to let her recognize the cold reality. All wet the wall, floor, cabinet and a chocolate box she prepared for today.

Gallop, Gallop
StandardThanks a million, Amazones. Your name sounds like a woman fighter, while never you are and called Ama-chan, meaning a sweetheart or beginner in Japanese. Since it is a trial lesson to go up to the next class, an instructor helps each student in a circle course using leading ropes set on horseis’ shoulders. Tutorial DVDs say that it is much speedier than looks, it really was. Mei-Shun recognized how enormous the pressure was when she found her eyes quite congested, hands stiff.
Monster Assault
StandardOh, you hurt our princess, didn’t you? Hid under leaves in daylight, worked after dark? Such a bad boy will be thrown away with a pair of chopsticks. Now, one of the triplets gave the first flower this morning while injured one takes longer time to grow her buds. It might be caused by her thinner, browned stem. That is all right, your highness. Please do not be in a hurry, just make sure and steady strides forward. Your little twin sisters would wait for you to flourish.
Nice Couple
StandardWe had 小雪=shosetsu, the second of winter 二十四節気 today with an unwelcome earthquake early in the morning. It reminded Mei-Shun of five years before — she seems to have a kind of allergy to image of tsunami since then. Her symptom might not appear if Shin, too busy last night and forced into a hotel in Tokyo, stayed with her. They were unable to represent いい夫婦の日 this year, reading numbers of November 22nd in Japanese.
Forward and Backward
StandardMs. I, an instructor at Mei-Shun’s horse riding club, offered her a promotion to the upper class. She will take a test on Friday, feeling so happy. On the other hand, she might stumble in her diet. She knows reasons well — one is that her rule to weigh regularly has been broken. She has done it on Aug. 31, Sept. 2, 9, 10 and 12 so far. Then she tried tonight, an unbelievable amount jumped into her eyes. Now she must make a rectification.
Fell In What?
StandardOh, poor gingko nuts. Chanthu and Mindulle have blown you down on the ground, still premature. Mei-Shun wishes she could pick you up to eat, yet they say you have amygdalin, a harmful toxin. You remind her of their own gingko, whose green leaves have been torn from branches to land onto balcony floor. Both of you left home too soon, yet had no choice.
Last Ceramics Pls
StandardIn preparation for it, Mei-Shun had her molar of the lower left jaw shaven a little more 2 weeks before. In spite of a narcotic injection, it really hurt. And last Saturday morning, she had to endure that pain again. Just a small part of nerve seems to be at the surface of the tooth under construction. She wished from the bottom of the heart it had been the very final difficulty to overcome. What she must be aware of is who deserved a series of disturbance.
3rd Renewal?
StandardNow our dishwasher is set after a long wait. They told us that a gas fitter for the hobs would come around 15 : 00, yet he appeared one hour earlier. Well, no problem. We satisfied with his job, precise and speedy. Just before he left, Shin gave his wife a message to recommend a trial operation of the dishwasher. Mei-Shun tried and — oh no, it never starts! She asked the gas fitter for a help, while our contact personnel visited for a check at the same time.
3rd Tooth
Standard… has come to cover Mei-Shun’s molar of the lower left jaw. Yes, the third one. It seems her occlusion is too powerful to accommodate ceramics. The first one came into a soft candy, a bit sticky one, which she chewed. The second one had been safe for just a week before it was found broken when she got up in a morning. Dr. M therefore chose a zirconia to replace the latter, saying so sorry. Well, the only wish for the patient is that her choice would be the last.
Home Renewal
StandardWe are going to renew the gas range, dishwasher and tatami mats one after another. Today’s clouds have been kind enough to wait until they remove and bring out the last ones. It is the first time for Mei-Shun to see under the mats. She was a little shocked at the amount of dust accumulated in 16 years. Clean, clean, vacuum, let’s clean.
