Moon Reflections continued

The true sign of fall is these flowers, higan bana, higan is the fall equinox, and hana is flower. It is yet another important memorial time, a time to visit the graves of your ancestors. I guess temples are hopping this time of year. I love these flowers, (what are they called in English?) the... Sign in to see full entry.

Moon Reflections

September is the moon viewing month here. This was around the fifteenth on the night of the full moon. You are supposed to eat dango, little mochi balls on a stick, as you veiw the moon and listen to the sounds the crickets make. Hear them? This picture below has the bullet train whizzing by, that...

Carp on the Cutting Board

'Like a carp on the cutting board' says hubby refering to himself, with no sence of doom. So I asked him about it. What does it mean? We were walking. We took two walks on Sunday. He has had three interviews and taken a test and so all he can do is wait. This is before the news of Lieman Brothers... Sign in to see full entry.

I Want to Wander Here

I feel I have been complaining alot here. To make up for my whining, I am posting these two fall pictures that were my favorite from a fall viewing picture contest I found, so these aren't mine. Although it is still hot, the humidity is down and there is a cool enough breeze not to have to turn on... Sign in to see full entry.

Still Hot

There are too many things driving me crazy in my life right now, the heat just makes everything worse. On the bright side... It is cool in the mornings for about thirty minutes. It is hot now and it is eleven thirty at night. I need to go to bed but wanted to post first. I just posted my latest on... Sign in to see full entry.

Thank you for your comments, I shall perservere with my writing. I just tried posting and lost a big 'ol long one, titled 'Quite a Leap' as I went from talking about tonight's dinner to the situation I find my life in now. Too bad, it wasn't a bad post, but it went wherever the lost posts go when... Sign in to see full entry.

OH My!

Oh my! It is very hot and humid again, back to running the AC full time. Oh my! The Japanese PM has resigned, yet again! Another guy just resigned just a year ago! I can't keep up with these guys! Two guys in a row have whimped out as the leader of this country. They threw in the towel, shamefully... Sign in to see full entry.

The Cicada's Mournful Cry

I rode around running errands this morning. Although it is hot again, there is a hint of cool and a promise that it won't last. The weather report says heat till the end of September....but the cicada's mournful cry states otherwise. It is very different, the cry in mid-summer and the cry now. Today...

The Best Breezes and Light of Hope

The light in this picture reminds me of a totally different place. It should belong to white washed buildings in some square in Barcelona, or along the Mediterranean in...France. I have been to neither place, but we have images even of places we've never been. You can tell the source of the light... Sign in to see full entry.

Rainy Sunday, and 'gaman'

Today it rained all day but has cleared up now this evening. It has cooled down considerably in the last three days. What a pleasant surprise! I was sure we would have to deal with the heat wave until mid September. I think it will probably get hot again but this is a nice reprieve. Today the high... Sign in to see full entry.
