stray cat

June 13, 2013 

I found a stray cat at the end of last month.　

He is the one in question below!

Normally I am not the kind of person who takes stray cats home in good faith but this time I did.. Ah, oh..

Because he was so friendly that he kept snuggling around my legs and never left. He was insanely meager that you could feel his spine, libs and pelvis through his skin. I thought he had been kept by someone and lost his way home. If he was an alley cat or something, he wouldn't be this skeletal because he would have been able to catch a mouse or two and eat. So I thought I would find his owner.

It has been almost 3 weeks since then. I put his information on bulletin boards both on the Internet and on real ones in stores and public facilities. There have only been two inquiries so far. Both didn't match though.

I am starting to think that he was abandoned ... If the owner doesn't show up during this month, I will stop looking for the original owner and start to find a new one.

Is there anyone interested in? He is really friendly, healthy, good-looking, and knows how to use toilet already! And you know, black cats are the good-luck charm!

Fruit PARM Strawberry

I like it a lot when I see Terao Akira san in the commercial for Fruit PARM Strawberry.  My recent favorite CM it is.　

I haven't tried the popsicle yet, by the way. I definitely will though!

Shouldn't read this post, OK? I am whining!

May 8, 2013 

 

Tiring Golden Week has finally finished ... I shouldn't say this but it is absolutely the honest feeling of mine...

 

.... I am sooooooooooooooooooooooo exhausted ....

 

My parents-in-law stayed in my place for 10 days, which means the whole GW including the weekdays in between. Can you believe it?! 10 facking days! Even if they were nice people, it would also be too long time to be together around the clock...  

My father-in-law is OK for me. He is nice and seems to understand how to pay regards when he stays others' house. What I mean is my mother-in-law. She does matter. Having guts, being earnest and perfectionist in her way are her pros. But, because she believes in herself so firmly, she can't stand it when she finds others' downsides. She nags, nags and nags just about everything, which are just tiny difference from her way but not such big mistakes.

The first couple of days are OK. Apparently she trys to be patient. As days go by, she can't stop herself and gets frustrated more and more and then ... about the last couple of days she explodes... This is the pattern she repeats every year.. I was wondering why she still wants to stay such a long time. I think 2 - 3 days should be perfect for peace in mind for all of us...

... I know I should be improved. I am whining about the same thing every year.  I just don't know how to handle the old woman. She says "Be more clear about what you want to say!" when I obey her. When I tell her my opinion which sounds against hers,  she is always upset saying "You are such cold-hearted," or "You are always talking back! " (actually, I am as obedient as no one else could be ... is this so-called "talking back"?) "That's why you never learn from the lessons," blah, blah ... According to her, the bottom line is people must obey her 100 %, all the time. No counter opinions at all ... Whoa, what kind of dictator is it? 

.... wWhooooaa, I can't stop myself whining ... !! 

Let me tell you this, finally. I am not exaggerating, OK?

You may want to advise me some tips to get along with her but ... maybe I have already tried them all. She is just beyond your imagination. She is honest, yes. She is kind, yes. She is caring, yes! But it is just her own way and it is inconsistent. Have you heard of the word "moral harassment"? That explains it.  ... In this theory, I am a stereotyped victim. So I what I can do is to rebuild my self-esteem and a strong heart which no vicious words can break.

my dog ate doughnuts

March 28, 2013 

I was horrified today because my dog ate 3 doughnuts on the sly!

They were double chocolate, chocolate glazed and honney glazed doughnuts, which contain lots of fat and sugger. Above all, chocolate is toxic for dogs!!!

"...Oh, no..."

I was looking at him burping, totally speachless. In contrast, he seemed so happy wagging his tail off.

It happened 1 hour away from home so I rushed back. Soon after, I check on the Internet and found the way to make Jack to throw the doughnuts up.  I gave him 2ml of oxydole diluted with the same ammount of water. With the liquid to take, a dog throughs up. Thus Jack did. 

Phew! It was so close ... I am so sorry, Jack. It was my fault and I was so careless to left the package of the doughnuts with you. I promise it will never happen again!

 

cute nephew

March 26, 2013 

I got a call from my dad this morning. He said he was going to come to my place with my nephew named Itsuki. I was so glad!

Itsuki belongs to a baseball team for kids. Actually ... I think he is ......... reeeally goooood for his age! He is 10 by the way.

It was pretty sunny so I took them to Kiyosato. Itsuki was playing pepper with Jack, my adorable Shiba dog, in a large grass field. I found them really really cute. 

... I imagined if I had a kid. It would be fun and the life should be fulfilling. 

Itsuki is a nice kid. I think that's because my sister and her husband raising him just nicely. I am so proud of them!
