My daughter woke up all excited. Today was Halloween Day. She had been counting down since last month. She wore the Halloween dress I made for her. She put on a make-up on her face. She brushed her hair and nicely tied her hair, which is not her daily routine. She looked pretty. Her schoolContinue reading “My first trick or treat 10/31/2019”

It is 10th day since I sprained my ankle. Even though I could walk around from the second day, my right ankle had stayed being swollen. It had a slight pain every night.

Today’s one was presented by the local Fire Department and the community so that everything was offered completely for free of charge to everyone. We visitedContinue reading “Haunted house Day-2 10/26/2019”

As usual routine, I left my house at 5:30 a.m. to the grocery store. Unlike summer time, in this late autumn, sun was not out yet. It was dark outside. This morning was much colder than the previous several days. The lowest temperature of this morning was 9C (48.2F). Our area is not that badContinue reading “Haunted house Day-1 10/25/2019”

I had an appointment with my Japanese friend for lunch. We became friends 11 years ago. We have many things in common. Our hometown is the same city so that we speak same Kansai dialect. Speaking the same language in the same voice tone with her makes me feel at home. When I invited herContinue reading “Get together with my long term friend 10/24/2019”
