It is cold today. According to the weather report it will be colder tomorrow. Pollen , difference of daily temperature — it is a tough season, isn’t it? 

Anyway Yuki constantly go playing tennis. Great! And his tennis mates are also great!

Yesterday I finished reading all books which I borrowed at library. So do I walk to the library to return them? It is cold today.

Good morning 0318 with lunch diary 0316

 

A new week has started.

This week we are going to visit my parent’s grave (my grandmother is also there) and see Yuki’s mother I the nursing home. 

I have some kimono of my friend. I am asked to take them apart. Taking them apart watching TV is a good way to kill time. Or good excuse to watch TV.  To say more correctly I watch TV programs through streaming services with  catch-up on PC. Anyway today’s mission is going to the gym to tell the truth, last week I didn’t go to the gym.

In two weeks

 

Yesterday, Yuki took blood test and saw his doctor. 

Unfortunately the result of X-ray doesn’t change so much, but the blood test value is getting better, so he takes less steroids medicine and will start taking immunotherapy in two weeks.

Side effects  might occur, but anyway his treatment starts.

Good morning 0315

 

Though the bread on the photo are a little burnt, they are Costco bread. Costco was crowded more than we expected. It was a good leisure day. 

Today I hold a laughter yoga meeting. 

This week we were scheduled fully. 

A lazy weekend is waiting for me.

Good morning 0314

 

Today, we will be members of Costco. 

It is a day for me to take cognitive behavioral therapy at a clinic. When I started to take it, I went there by myself. Next time, Yuki took me in his car. Then, we have decided to be members of Costco. Costco is just 5 minute drive from the clinic. 

So it is our leisure day. 

Additionally yesterday in the evening Yuki’s younger brother came here from Tokyo by local train. They drank outside and I joined them later having coffee. Yesterday it was also a leisure day.

Good morning 0313

Good morning. It is sunny. Yesterday I performed with my friend happily! However I had a trouble with runny nose. I have pollen allergy, so that I take medicine constantly in this season. But yesterday I had worse runny nose. So I took another strong medicine.  As soon as I finished my performing I went back home in Yuki’s car, and fell asleep.

Continuing from yesterday I translated this article.

Dear trouble shooter

I'm a housewife in my late 50's I have two children; they are already married and independent. I live with my husband and my mother in our house.

My daughter who lives in a different prefecture. She and her husband are raising their child together while they work. When she came here, she said to me.

"When my brother and I were little, you only spoiled him, you were really strict with only me. Your child raising had a big difference. “

Raising her child reminds her of the difference. So, she decided to only one child. She never wants her child to have such feeling. 

My daughter was selfish, and very offensive. However, I never have thought that I discriminated on brother and sister. I interacted her as well as my son.

I asked an advice to my husband. However, he said “Don’t involve me, it is a problem between two of you.”

I have a good relation ship with my son. How do I communicate with my daughter from now on?


Adviser

Miscommunication often occur, doesn’t it? However, if it happens in a family, it sometimes causes a big trouble. 

Your daughter and your son had different characters, so you intreated them in different ways, but you loved and cherished both of them equally. 

On the other hand, your daughter’s feeling that she was not loved as well as her brother is true for your daughter. 

It is a pointless argument which is right. Could you apologize her? It doesn’t mean that you accept you didn’t love her well. You should proud of your love to her. But you should accept that your daughter felt sad and your behaviors hurt her. And from now on, you try to heal her such her feelings. You might thing that it’s not fair. However, it is very important to build better relation ship with her from now on.

The bigger trouble is your husband remark. It is not fair. You should face to him behavely.
