Happy news

Hi, everyone!

Alice, several friends of mine in Osaka usually use their Japanese names, and I had not asked them about it. But they told me that they had no voting rights. Some used to say that she couldn’t believe young nonvoting people.
I went to the site of Tutankhamen. What a miraculous experience we have! About 3000 years ago, he actually lived his life as a king and even now he exists. I was also surprised by its good condition.

Sunflower, I’m glad to hear that Plum will get back after a week. I hope she could be all right soon. Thank you for happy news!

So, see you!

Hi, everyone.

Sunflower, thank you for Plum's good news. Is her pain mitigated?

Alice, I watched Tutankhamun's picture. Thank you. As Cherry said, preservation condition is good. Perhaps brain tissues were elaborately removed. Yesterday, my friend said ' It is inconvenient for the death.' Perhaps around his face anti septic indigenous to Egypt was applied. It is a good work. The supreme technology at that time was used. I can not help giving a exlacmation. Our further ancestor's intelligence is unfathamable. How they could predict that the efficacy of anti-ceptic would last more than 3000 years? I would like not to meet Tutankhamun but the mummy producer.

Dear Cherry and friends,

Cherry, thank you for telling me about your Korean friends. Today I read a very short story about a Korean woman written by Li Kaisei. I didn't know his name but he was awarded the Akutagawa Prize a long ago. I read a part of the award-winning novel. It's so short that I could read while I waited for the PC start up.

The story was a fiction but it sounds like the writer's own memoirs. This woman had some children. He wrote as if he was telling about his mother. The family lived in Japan. He witnessed how his parents argued and his father used violence on his mother. One morning, she decided to leave her family. She tore up Japanese kimono and packed a Korean ethnic dress in a suitcase. At the very moment she left the house, her children cried out. The moment was the climax of the story. She couldn't move at the door. Facing each other, she and her children couldn't speak, either. It's a heartbreaking moment. She gave up leaving them eventually.

I became interested in this writer.

Good night.

Hello, everyone
Thank you for a good news, Sunflower. I am very glad to hear that Dr. Aoyama is getting better.
I saw the golden coffin of Tutankhamen in America three decades ago. I was very impressed with vivid gorgeous shining colors. I also would like to meet the artisans of those days, as Azalea mentioned. When I visited the grave of the first Emperor of Qin in China, I was amazed the elaborated skill of ancient craftsmen, too. I wonder human has become clumsy as we invented many convenient tools and devices and machines. It is a kind of mystery that our ancestors could produce splendid works with only simple tools and their own hands. See you again, in a grave? Or in a dream? Bye!

Hi, friends.

I had a hectic day today because I attended Jonathan's meeting and after that I worked as a Kumon assistant near my house from 3:30 to 5:30, so I had no time to prepare dinner for my family. When I hurried home after work, good smell came from my house. To my surprise, my daughter cooked Nabe ryori, which seldom happened. I noticed that she came to be marrigeable age. That's why she became interested in cooking these days and sometimes asks me how to cook some dishes of my speciality.
Anyway I was happy tonight.

p.s. I had a mistake. I worked from 3:30 to 6:30 and usually I go to work for Kumon class after cooking dinner, which is too early, but when I come home from Kumon, I can eat as soon as possible after just heating the food and I don't have to care about my husband whether he is hungry or not. He can eat it anytime when he feels hungry, but when I asked other assistant teachers if they cook dinner before coming. One does, but other 2 teachers trained their husbands to cook when the wife is out for working, which is only twice a week. I admired how their husbands are flexible, obedient, understanding and kind. I wonder if spoiled my husband or he is just old-fashioned.
