10 in the morning, they came to install
More ambulatory aid poles.
10 poles in total now in my apartment.
Hang on to a pole to stabilize myself, then move to the next pole.
Walk like an orangutan in the forests,
Not as skillful, though.
MAMA came with bread and salad
Lunch together
Milk and almond bread go well together
I drank steaming milk
The wind moved the white curtain and I saw the blue sky.
3 PM
Quiet and alone
I rested my tired body.
I inhaled negative ion
I fell asleep
The blue sky gave place to the dusk.
Rrrrr Rrrrr electronic sound
Yuri called
She came with a backpack.
She came on a bicycle this time.
Fermented brown rice, salad of her own recipe, marinated codfish.
Potato salad with wood ear and salted herring roe.
It's indescribably good.
Home made pickles.
She uses the best ingredients.
itadakimasu.
Bon appetit.
Wine in the glass glowing red
We picked up where we left off two weeks ago.
We have many thing to talk.
Thank you for opening a skype account.
Let's talk on skype to make up my immobility.
The resident of the forests, orangutan, uses poles to go to bed
Good night.
