Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Good mornevening, Yumiko !🌅🌃😄👌 The Fariry iris(Dietes genus) you posted to GS on 5/24 looks very similar to a "Iris japonica" flower(Japanese name is Shaga).🏵️🌿🤗 I posted the photo of "Iris japonica(Shaga)" to GS on May 10th.📸🏵️🌿🤭 The flowers look similar, but they belong to different genera, as follows. 🤔👎 ①Fariry iris Iridaceae Dietes genus ②Iris japonica Iridaceae Iris genus Have a nice weekend !🏊♀️🏃♀️💦 See Yumiko again in a dream. So long ! 😴💤🌃🌌🎠✨
@ユミ Thank you for a message. I know…me, too. I have a rose garden. It’s the time/the first trimming. It makes me busy. Swimming, walking and trimming ~ and cleaning up. I lose my weight and will have a good meal to control my body. Let’s have a nice day together! with smile 😊
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. Yes, I saw your photo. Nice one/Shaga. Osaka Expo will be held until 10/13 2025. Interesting! I wish I could visit. I am looking forward to seeing your photos. Have a great day! 😊 *I sleep for 10 hours~a day. My body situation became much better. 👍
Good morning. ☺️✨ Yesterday I went to my son and his wife's house 🏠️ and met my granddaughter for the first time in a long time. At first she was a bit shy, but after a while she remembered me and we went out together. She is growing day by day, and when I saw her smile, she was very cute and energetic. I had a fun day. 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Youmiko for your lovely message ! 😄🤗 Do Youmiko sleep 10 hours a day ?😳 Bikkura-pon-yah.🫢 That's twice as long as Oni-SAN's sleeping time.🤭😊 I am planning to go to the Kansai-Osaka Expo this week on May 28th.💙♥️👀 I have 4 pavilions reserved. ①City of the Future Pavillion ②PASONA Nature Verse ③Iida Group pavilion ④Hungarian pavilion I plan to go to the Kansai-Osaka Expo in June, July and August.😄🤗👌 I will also be posting photos from the Expo area on GS.🏰🕌🕍⛪️⭕️📱 See Yumiko again in a dream.😴🌃🌌🌟✨🎠✨ So long. 🥰🌞✌️
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. lovely Actually I have my granddaughter,too. She is 8 years old. I understand your feeling.🎀 When I back to Japan, I will see her. Nice day together! 😊
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. 😮you don’t sleep for more than 6 hours/day?! no ~ please sleep for 8 hours. my oni~san. Sleeping is the most important for us. I do sleep well. You know…sometimes I think about my mother in Japan too much and…can’t sleep all night. … 🙄 I am ok, today. When…5/18 I had a bad day. I have my blood pressure. It showed 82/55(blood pressure ) 147(pulse). 🙁(dame!)
I am today coming back. Blood pressure and Pulse are coming back,so far. Keep being healthy. Let’s go! with smile 😊
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yumiko for your 8 hours sleeping recommend to me.😴😄👌🌃 My blood pressure showed 146/72, and 88 palse/min. My blood pressure is the opposite of Yumiko's, it's high.⤴️😔 So I take blood pressure medicine every day.💊🫗 Taking a deep breath will lower my blood pressure slightly.😊 Conversely, irritation caused blood pressure to rise.🤔 What are Yumiko doing to increase your blood pressure ? Is it sleeping well ?😴💤 Eitherway, exercising or taking up a hobby is good for our body.😄🤗 Take photos of flowers and share our hobby ! 🌞✌️ Have a nice day. 🏊♀️⛳️🏌️♀️💦
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. lovely You know…it started on 5/18 2025. My blood pressure showed 82/55 147(pulse)🙄 I thought what’s going on to me. It happened for the first time in my life. I was almost going to #911. I am today 👌! Still I have a doctor appointment soon. I will check again. Anyway, I really think I am getting into the senior’s door 🚪! 😤 Let’s go for today and tomorrow together! with our good smiles 😊😊
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yumiko for your lovely message !😄👌 Onii-san am going to the Osaka-Kansai Expo early tomorrow🚃, so I'll go to bed early tonight. 🌅😴💤🌃 Have a nice day.🌞✌️ So long.😊
@太陽の塔 How nice! I hope you will have a nice trip and days there. I am looking forward to seeing your photos on the Osaka-Kansai Expo. ✌️ Have a great day! with smile 😊
It's been a refreshing morning today. It's so refreshing that I wonder if it rained last night. Today is my husband's day to go to the hospital, so I'll stop by after going out. Let's have a good time today too. 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yumiko for your words of hope ! 😊😄 Onii-SAN managed to go to the Osaka-Kansai Expo 2025 today.♥️💙👀🤭🤗 It reminded me of a song from the World Eypo 55 years ago. 🎶Kon-nichi-wa, kon-nichi-wa Sekai-no-kuni-kara.🎶(by Haruo Minami) 55 years ago.🤭 Meanwhile ,this year's Expo song is as follows. 🎶Kon-nichiwa sakura saku Kon-nichiwa makuga aku Kon-nichiwa hibikiau 🎶(by Kobukuro)
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good! You take care of your husband well. He is grateful. I do understand! We will have a good day. “Positive” makes you feeling better. We are together on GS. 😊
On certain days, I go to the hospital, but I also run some errands while I'm there, and if I can spend some fun time somewhere, I go to see flowers or go shopping depending on the weather. It's forecast to rain ☂️ today, so I'm planning to go out. I hope you have a wonderful day today 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ I'm very sorry for last night. I fell asleep while writing a message for Yumiko last night.🌃🙇✏️😴💤 I noticed so many mistakes in the text and fixed them. 😢 And here was the next message I was thinking of last night: 🤭😄 "I have posted the photos of the Expo 2025 today to GS, so I want you to see the photos, and tell Onii-SAN what you think."👌 Have a nice day !🏊♀️🚶♀️💦 So long.🌞✌️
I have never been hospitalized except for childbirth, but now my husband is hospitalized and I have been visiting him regularly since he was discharged. If I have time after that, I make a detour and enjoy it. 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yumiko for your message to oniisan.🤗🤭👌 I decided to exchange my one-day ticket for the Kansai Expo to an all-season pass. So I have already started selling my one-day tickets I bought to my relatives.😁💸 Do Yumiko have a ticket to the Kansai Expo ? ♥️💙👀😊 Kansai Expo visitor number have seen a increase.⤴️🫢 Have a nice weekend ! 🏊♀️🏌️ So long.😴💤🌃✨🎠✨

On Saturday and Sunday, my daughter's husband came over and we went out to eat. It was also to create an opportunity to talk. My daughter and her husband haven't moved into their new home yet, so they're still going out looking at appliances and furniture here and there. They're still living in their own parents' houses. I'm looking forward to the day they can move into their own home. 🐰💗
@太陽の塔 Actually I had no experience about Expo. That’s why I am interested in to see your photos. How is your day? You are healthy man! Respect 🫡. You know I was sick for one week(5/18-24). Still I can’t believe why I had that. Had I told you? My blood pressure was 80/45 and Pauls 160. 😲almost to call #911. I still did not go to the #911/emergency hospital. Finally, I came back normal. *no think about anything ~ just go your life and take a time. No stress. 🤗(omajinai). I will go for~ 👍 Talking too long, thank you for listening to me. Gave a great day. 👋see U
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yumiko for your interest in my photos. 🤗🙆♀️ Yes, Yumiko had told Oni-chan about blood pressure.🤭👌 Tomorrow is the day I go to the Osaka-Kwansai Expo for the second time.🌞✌️ I have to get up early in the morning, so I'll go to bed early tonight.😴💤🌃 So long. ✨🎠✨
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ …so your daughter and husband are living by themselves.(at his parents house)? If it is, yes. I understand your feeling. They need to independent and start to live at their own place. You can talk to me anytime, I will be with you on GS. I understand your situation. We are mother, grandmother… Let’s talk ~! Have a great day. 😊
@太陽の塔 Great! You are going back and have a nice time there. I hope you will have a nice trip and days. It’s already June! Time passes so fast. We will take care of ourselves well. Have a great day! with smile 😊
Now, my daughter and her husband live in their respective parents' homes, and on weekends when they have a day off from work, they look at appliances, furniture, etc., and wait for the day they can move into their new home. They are waiting for the contract date. For the time being, they live separately in their respective parents' homes 📱 and communicate daily via mobile phone. I wonder if it will be a while yet 🐰💗
