The first day of November

Hi, everyone!

Today is the first day of November. I can’t believe that the rest of this year is just two months. As Cosmos mentioned before, the older we become, the faster time flies.

For past one month, I have tried to choose an aikido class, but I gave up taking lessons for that. Because such class usually give lessons for a weekday night or Saturday afternoon, and I can’t join them for reasons of time. I’d like to learn it someday. Instead of that, I took up training at a neighboring gym just today. I took an orientation for beginners and entried two studio lessons. One was a sort of yoga for body healing, and the other was a sort of martial arts, very hard movements. I was bathed in perspiration for the first time in about 20 years, and I feel comfortable fatigue now. I have decided to go there twice a week….( at least for a month)

So, I will go to bed earlier tonight. Good night, see you.

Hi, everyone.

Alice, I am sorry for my premature explanation. Precisely, I made mistakes. I dove and walked under the sea. However, I did not jump from the boat but I stepped down the lattice step by step, adjusting my ears to the sea pressure. I walked on the bottom of the sea. In other ways, I did schnorcheling on the surface of the sea.

NEWS

Today before noon, Police came from Kanagawa Pref.. They asked your house was broken into. I did not know. I said it had to be my neighbor's. 'No, he said your house.' the officer said. This thief is professional. After he worked, he restroed the spot. Some victims never notice the crime.
He is old, Most of his life was behind the bars. He entered even when a person was in the house.
I recalled the windows open once this year I thought it was close though. I said to them 'I am not sure.'
In the evening, I recalled that I thought my husband was in the first floor but he was practically in the second floor. I felt strange at that time.
I asked the police why they know my house. They said ' We took him here in advance and he pointed out your house. Hearing their explanation, I felt my body getting cold. There were and are no precious things in my house.
They will stay at Aichi until Nov. 5th. It means the perpetrator committed many thieves. At last, one of them said, 'We will prove his crimes as many as he did, we want him to be in prison as long as possible.'

Hello, Cherry and my friends.

Today I read my daughter, Hiroko’s Blog which she set up in March,2006. According to her recent report on October 31, kids and mothers seemed to enjoy Halloween festival from the bottom of heart. Children put on unique costumes their mothers chose according their own taste. Manato, my grandson looked like just a pumpkin when he wore a pumpkin outfit. A two-year-old girl looked like a cute pumpkin fairy in her orange and brown dress.
It seems that my grandson became old enough to take part in the festival with his mother.

Cherry, I admire you very much. It is tremendous efforts to keep writing interesting comments every day. You are a woman of action. You inspirs me a lot.

Thank you.

Dear Cherry and friends,

How scary! I was like reading the introductory part of a suspense novel, Azalea. Is that guy from Kanagawa? It sounds he is a professional thief.

A woman visited this afternoon. She is as old as me and has two kids. Her hometown is Noto. Since my parents attended their bridal ceremony to play a role so-called matchmaker, she and her family sometimes visit my parents faithfully. My parents were not matchmakers, you know. They did it because they were asked. The couple just met where they worked. I think they were students when they met. Her husband helped my father when he was a high school student. He went to a university in Kanazawa, where he met this woman.

They left Kanzawa and came to Toyohashi after they got married. Today, she brought a nice Japanese sweet whose shape is exactly like an earthenware flower vase. It seems a dry confectionery. Its inside is a whole apple. Just watching it is enjoyable.

We talked how we are doing recently. This summer, she had to quit her part time job. She worked at a Japanese buckwheat noodle restaurant in her neighborhood but its owner closed the restaurant. While we had coffee together, we think about her financial strategies because they have a land inherited in a relatively expensive area in Toyohashi. We wonder which is good to rent out rooms or to build a block or privately-owned flats called mansion in Japanese. I had no idea but I think comparing them, looking for alternatives, and calculating precisely would be her good part-time job. It would take a lot of energy, though.

I'm sleepy, now.
Good night.
