2026.5.1

A new month has started. May is gogatsu (5月、五月) or Satsuki (皐月). 

There are some things I do on the first day of the month. 

I should have got up earlier but could not. So, I could not change plant, rice, salt of inhouse shrine and change the mounted salt.

It was rainy but became fine.

I went to the nearby shrine before going to work. 

I missed the usual train. I bought some bums from the coin locker style vending machine for the first time. It was about half price because of the expire dates.

On the train I fell asleep and when I realized it was already my station and jumped out and left the umbrella behind.I asked the lost and found by email.As of now it is not found yet.

The last day of April.

It was cloudy and rather cold, and became rain in the afternoon.

There are still lots of things to do and I overworked again.

How was your April?

I started a new job and commute for four to five hours and overwork.

Since my smartphone was broken and I bought a new one. I lost many data and I am in trouble with two applications which were stressful.

I enjoyed cherry blossom viewing, having luncheon and dinner with friends.

I started visiting 33 Kannon statues at the temples.

It was cloudy and rainy.

Today is a national holiday called Showa no hi. It was used to be Emperor Showa's birthday until 1988, became Green Day until May 2006, and has become Showa no hi since 2007.

It is the start of the Golden Week.

In the morning I washed, cleaned, and cleared the kimono.  

After lunch I started visiting 33 temples. Today I visited 3 temples.I went to Myoonji, Kaizoji, and Kannodo.

I went grocery shopping.

At night I had the 56th Bilingual Fortune Sharing Tea Party and joined a zoom gathering.
