Kurumi returned from trimming seem tired and sleep well. Kurumi seems to do well with this trimmer and is very quiet. The clean his hair is very soft and fluffy. It was a hot day during the day as well today. It rained a little, but the grass in the garden needs more water. Let’s sprinkle water tomorrow.
It’s late August already, and the signs of autumn are beginning to grow. The flowers that I can see on a walk in the morning are becoming autumn flowers. Kurumi got up early this morning, but I wanted to sleep a little longer because it is Sunday, so I took only Kurumi to the living room. Then he slept well in the living room. I don’t know why he gets up early in our bedroom. Let’s live happily this week as well.
Today was a day of unstable weather. I’ve been sweating at a tennis school. Recently, I had elbow pain after playing tennis, but it has been improved by changing the way I hold the racket and how I put my strength into it. Rehabilitation at the osteopathic clinic also seems to be effective. I spend a lot of time at home these days, so I’m changing something I’m curious about. This time, I changed the bottle that holds the dishwashing detergent. A proper amount of detergent is pushed out just by pushing the sponge from above, so it is convenient to operate with one hand. I’ve been using this type of hand soap for a long time. Kurumi got up very early this morning. Maybe it’s because he spends a lot of time on the sofa during the day.
This Tuesday was the anniversary of my mother-in-law’s death. My mother-in-law and father-in-law are sleeping in a grave near my house. Whenever I go for a walk, I look at the graveyard. It was fine this morning and the blue sky was very beautiful. I’m glad it was in a sunny place. When it’s sunny, it’s hot in the daytime, but it’s getting cooler in the morning and evening. Autumn flowers are beginning to be seen on the roadside. I spent playing with Kurumi today as well. I am trying to stay at home as much as possible because it is under a state of emergency.
The rain that had fallen until dawn stopped, and the sky became clear. I was able to enjoy the morning walk for the first time in a long time, but due to the rain that continued until yesterday, the humidity was high and I sweated. Today I didn’t have much time to play with Kurumi during my work day at home. Every time I down from my work room to the living room where Kurumi was, he came to me to play with me.
It was bit sunny in the morning, so I expected it to be fine as it is, but it rained until the afternoon. It was after 4 pm became clear sky finished a fairly heavy rain. It is the blue sky after a long rainy days. The hot days will come back, but it feels better to be sunny than to rain. Mushrooms are growing here and there on the grass, probably because of the long rain. Eventually, Kurumi spent his time at home today. He became completely spoiled and stayed close to me when he went to sleep.
It rained a little in the afternoon, so I walked a little. It’s been a day without sunshine today, but tomorrow we will surely be able to enjoy the sun. The government today decided to extend the state of emergency. This situation will continue until the 12th of next month. And I decided to cancel the planned trip because the target area will expand. Kurumi was still playing in the house today. I hope he can go out to the garden tomorrow.
The days without sunshine continued to today. The rain from the morning continued until the night. According to the forecast, it will be fine from tomorrow afternoon. Kurumi also seems to be looking forward to a sunny day. When I got home, Kurumi greeted me with that feeling. It was a short time, but I was able to play with him using toys.
It is also a rainy day from the morning today. The Pacific High and the Okhotsk High are in conflict, and the front that occurred between them is stagnant in the Japanese archipelago. This shape is the same as during the rainy season before summer, so it is called the rainy season (Bai-u) front. Japan has returned to the rainy season after hot days. It became light rained, so I walked a short distance. A dragonfly is perched on an olive tree in the garden. I couldn’t tell whether it was a sympetrum darwin or a sympetrum frequens, but the weather is like this, so the dragonfly may be confused. I had time to play with Kurumi today as well. It’s raining, but it helps to be cool. Kurumi was also taking a nap comfortably.
In the afternoon, I went to the bakery with an umbrella in raining. There is a counter here where I can have bread and coffee in the shop. Books on the theme of coffee are lined up at the counter as well. I also brew coffee by grinding it from beans every morning, and I have learned to brew coffee deliciously. Today, I was able to acquire new knowledge from the book I read here. I’ll try it tomorrow morning. Kurumi is playing with toys today. He was barking asking me to pick up a toy that he couldn’t get.
