2024.2.1

It seemed to have rained during the night, but it was fine and cloudy in the daytime.

A new month has started. February is nigatsu (２月 or 二月) or Kisaragi (如月) in Japanese.

On the first day of the month, there are something I do. To change the plants, rice, and salt at the Shinto altar and to change salt at 5 places at home, and to visit the nearby shrine.

After work I went to have dinner with my colleague for the first time since I started the new job about 10 months ago. There were many choices, and I chose the recommended food of the day by a mail magazine. I enjoyed eating and drinking and talking a lot.

From this month I will try to drink soy milk.

2021.2.28

It was fine.

The last day of February. How fast time flies!

One sixth of the year has gone.

What did you do?

I went to the Ise shrine to spend the new year of the lunar calender and travel around there before and after that which was really nice.

I published the 19th ebook and it became N9.1 in Japan and the USA.

I teleworked for two days.

It was a fruitful month.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

2019.2.1

A new month has started. February is nigatsu (二月) or kisaragi (如月) in Japanese. It is the coldest month.

It was fine but very cold today.

This morning there was an inspection of the train or something at Mita station of Toei Asskusa Line and from Shinagawa to Daimon I had to take the alternative way. I took JR from Shinagawa to Hamamatsucho instead.

Usually I visit the shrines near my house and near my office in the morning of the first day of the month before working. But this morning I had to take the irregular way, and could not visit shrines near the office. Instead I went there at lunch time.
