Today I attended the first
Friday English Class in May.
We enjoyed free conversation
in English.
Our teacher asked us how we spent
the Golden week holiday.
I was the first to answer the question.
I didn't go anywhere,
nor did I do anything special.
But it was nice and relaxing.
I told her how happy I was
that my granddaughter came home
from Hokkaido.
Most ladies were very busy
taking care of those who came home
to see them----
their daughters, their sons-in-law,
or grandkids.
They are all veteran homemakers.
They are all good at cooking.
They must have a great time, I guess.
One lady said she was dead tired.
Her husband stayed at home for ten days.
She had to prepare 3 meals for him.
She had no time to spare for herself.
I remembered an old commercial,
「亭主元気で留守が良い」
Oh, we talked too much
and we had no time to ask our teacher
how she enjoyed her GW holiday!
A lady brought our teacher the roses
she grew in her garden.
