Nailcare and I: Later on ― 2020/12/02
A couple of weeks have past since I began taking care of my fingernails, and I found that it not only prevents the nails from cracking, braking or spiriting, but gives me a time for an instant meditation. By briefly leaving from troubles or negative feeling I come across, I can calm myself down a bit and think this and that from other perspectives.
Probably I look like a cat grooming her fur, after falling from a tree when I file my nails.

Sunshine is gold in early winter.
He Has Back ― 2020/12/18
After a week of sick leave, our governor has back, saying (insisting) that he has had pneumonia-like symptoms but was not found infected with COVID-19 and is feeling better now.
As we are in the middle (I hope it is the middle, not the beginning ) of the "third wave" of COVID-19 outbreak, I assumed he caught the virus, but (according to his press conference) he didn't. If so, I wonder why his condition has not been reported at all for the past week as other public figures' have been.
Maybe I am unnecessarily skeptical, but can I believe the man who has been staying relatively calm (compared to the chubby mayor) and doing relatively reasonable jobs in this crazy time is OK? To my elderly eyes, he seems to have some troubles with his liver.
Lack of Luck, or... ― 2020/12/20
Recently I have accidently bought rotten sweet potatoes and a grapefruits in a row.
I didn't buy them at the lowest possible prices, The stores I got them are not regarded as the "top-notch," but has a relatively long history of doing business in this city, therefore I thought they were trustworthy.
The time we can blindly trust grocery stores may have gone with arrival of the corona panic...I hope I am thinking too much as I do most of the times....

Winter Task ― 2020/12/21
As we layer more clothes, more cloth care is needed in winter and more detergent and water to wash them(particularly this year).
Followed by hanging the washing outdoor in 5 Celsius, the most annoying task of winter cloth care for me is removing pilling from wooly (or imitation wool)clothing.
Most, if not all, of my newly acquired garments are made with advanced technologies (in other words, cheaply made) making the most of mixed materials or entirely synthetic materials, such as wool-like acryl, down-like polyester, which seem to pill more often than 100% cotton or wool.
I used to use this electric pilling remover
to get rid of them, but at this level, ↓
it is useless and good old scissors and brush do a better job.
After a 30-minute labor, the surface of my favorite 2019 Uniqlo/Ines coat looks a bit better.
In fact, the hip region of this coat became thinner as a result of repeated pill-removing operations it went through last season.
