My morning routine is playing the piano. In particular, the set of these two pieces is essential for morning practice. It can awaken the brain and both hand muscles. It’s like washing my face and brushing teeth in the morning. Bach’s English Suite No.3 Prelude, Schubert-impromptu No.3. Zengyo, Fujisawa-city
夏の太陽に負けないスターチスとカスミソウをお供えした後、宮永さんのカフェ day dream believer で寛いだお茶の時間。今日も良い一日でした。
Our grave area has become popular and buyers are increasing. I heard that sometimes visitors ask question to office staff about the name of Dolce. So I handed Dolce’s picture to the management office of the cemetery and said, “Please show this photo of Dolce to those who are interested”. After offering flowers to the grave, I went to Miyanaga-san’s cafe. Today was another good day.
I’m making handwritten scores for the violin solos and duets. Film music is made with reference to sheet music for piano scores, so I rewrite it many times. This is just a small scenery of my enjoyment.
Nakajima-san and I had lunch. It’s a hot day but we had an enjoyable time. After lunch, I brought pretty flowers to the graveyard, and then I ate cold watermelon as soon as I returned home. It’s my happiness today!
Eight swallowtail caterpillars were on one dill plant. I have never seen so many caterpillars in one place. As the dill they were on was small, I was afraid that caterpillars didn’t have enough food. After July, very few plants are carried at gardening stores in this area. I was fortunate to find parsleys in one store. Immediately, the parsleys were planted around the dill. The Caterpillars were able to move from the dill to the parsleys by themselves, Soon after, two caterpillars disappeared to become chrysalis. I hope they all come back as swallowtails next spring.
Miyanaga-san’s son opened a cafe called “day dream believer” near Fujisawa station. I called Sam to come and have some beer. Food was delicious and we enjoyed the atmosphere of this cafe very much!
Seiko-san came to Fujisawa to see me from Tokyo. We visited graveyard, and then we had lunch together. She is an artist who makes works of small lives.
Miyanaga-san and I started playing duets. We met at the same cemetery by chance when we visited the graves of each of our husbands, and we became friends.
I just returned from a short trip to Las Vegas. It has been about 15 years since I last went there and I was looking forward to how it has changed. The first thing I noticed was all the new hotels and construction going on. There were many new hotels that were much bigger than the ones I remembered because of the pandemic there were no buffet dinners which I remembered but I read that those are going to operating in the future. It was always above 30 degrees but the heat there is very dry. That seemed strange to me. Although I was only there for 3 days I was glad to come back home to Hawaii!
