@太陽の塔 I saw your photo. It’s nice one. You are so busy? I wonder when you take a rest!? Take care of yourself. Young boy “Tou-san”. We are together on GS. with smile 😊
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. While I was walking, I saw this lady’s tree. There are some~ blooming. I was with with this tree for a while. My enjoyment. Let’s have a nice day together! with our smiles 😊😊
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) While I was out, I saw a bright red hibiscus 🌺💗. Hibiscus varieties are not part of a long-running series, so the flowers you enjoy looking at only last a day won't be there tomorrow, so you'll want to gaze at them for a while. ☺️💕 🐰💗
@ゆきばー Thank you for a message. I am happy to see this lady at this time. It’s getting colder here. In the morning, when I leave for my club(swimming), it’s 15°C. Let’s have a nice day together! with smile 😊
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. You know about flowers well. , I think Every day is coming. Keep being healthy. Have vegetables, fruits. Keep our body looking good! 👍 Have a great day! with smile 😊
Yes ♡ Whenever I don't know anything about flowers, I look it up on Google. I never thought I would look it up that much before, but now I look up things that interest me. I hope you have a wonderful day today 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming so much for your advice ! 👍😄🙆♀️ There's just one month left until the Kansai Expo. So it got very crowded.😣😨💦 It is no longer possible to enter the Expo site.😢🙅♀️ Oni-chang have been to all the pavilions so I have no regrets. 🤗 The next World Expo will be held in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, so I would like to build up my stamina, and to master Saudi Arabian by then. 😉💪💦 It's only for five years. ✋🤭 يلا سلام (Yalla salam) Hoitara-next. ✈️👋
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. You know…I have several Books made in USA. I went to the city library and found nice books. I can study with the book at the library. Lucky! We will have a nice day today and tomorrow! with our smiles 😊😊
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. Wow~ we will have next project about EXPO. I read you said “honmani yo~iwanwa” =‘sou ne~ shikatanashi dayo’. Let’s go for a good day together! Take care of yourself. Nice rest and have a lots of water(I do always). Put a water pot beside your bed 🛌 and have water in the middle of the night(I do). Good day ! 😊😊
You love books, don't you? I don't think we've been to the city library lately. I used to go there a lot when my children were students. Today, I'm currently traveling to Shiga Prefecture by car. It's sunny and not raining in Shiga Prefecture. I'm heading out to the vicinity of Lake Biwa. I'm visiting my son and his wife's house 🏠️ 🧑🏻🍼👶🏻. I hope you have a wonderful day today 🐰💗☺️😊
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your interpreting the Osaka dialect ! 🙇👌🤗😄 "Wate honmani you iwanwa ! " is Osaka dialect, its meaning is "Akirete mono ga ienai". 🤔 That translates to English as " I'm so shocked I can't say anything."😊 Yuming, would that be all right ?🌞👌 Hoitara-ne. 👋👋👋
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ How nice! You drive to go where you want to ~! lovely “The Lake Biwa”…I visited there once. At that time, there was ‘Plankton abnormal occurrence’…1980s. I still I swam. It was warm(temperature of the water). I still remember that. How is it today? I wish I could swim there. 😊 Nice day!
The surface of Lake Biwa wasn't particularly beautiful yesterday. However, I did see some yachts and such on the lake. I stopped by a Japanese sweets shop called "Taneya" near Lake Biwa Otsu Prince Hotel. Outside, the trees, flowers, and plants were blooming like a garden, so I snapped a photo📱✨. 🐰💗
When I go to Shiga Prefecture, I cross Lake Biwa Bridge, do some sightseeing nearby, and then visit my son and his wife's 🏠️. I want to see my granddaughter. I'm looking forward to it. When we travel, my husband drives 🚙, even though he can drive too.🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your looking at my photos ! 😉👌 Which of my photos is your favorite ? Please let me know. 🤗 Oni-chang will take your opinion into consideration in the future. 🌌🚀 Hoitara-ne ! 🌞✌️

She showed a couple of photos. 👏 your photos ~ I have been enjoying. Thank to you. Anyway she said we will go to New York. We visited New York for our 60 year old birthday(we were born on the same day). We are now planning to go for 70 year old birthdays. 😊 Hope~ How are you? You are powerful man! 👌 You take regularly nicely. I watch your photos everyday. 😊 Have a great day! (son jar~ne)=(soredewa shitsurei shimasu)💕
Hello 😉✨ Yes ♡ I went out for a little while 🤏🏻 and I was able to come across some autumn flowers, but the best part was being able to hold my second granddaughter 🧑🏻🍼👶🏻, which was really fun. My oldest granddaughter has grown taller and healthier than before, and is very active. She was a bit shy at first, but over time she started to remember me. I had a great time. 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your kind message !🤗😄👌 Wow, that's great to hear from Yuming about your best friend. 👭🤗 What are the two pictures that she showed you ?🤔🤭 You are looking forward to your 70th year trip. Which country are you planning to go to ? ✈️🚙💨🚶♀️💦 Hoitara-ne ! (Hon-journey ! 🧳)
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good morning. 🌞 You are enjoying with your grandchildren. … my ground daughter is 8 years old. I remember, I had a great time with her age. Let’s have a good time together! 😊

Good morning. ☺️✨ My two-year-old granddaughter was so lively and moving around quickly while playing on the playground equipment we were out with. I wonder if an eight-year-old would enjoy playing on the swings, horizontal bars, jungle gyms, etc. 🐰💗
September 16th is your Happy Birthday. Your granddaughter is turning 8 years old. Congratulations 🎉🎂👏🏻👏🏻Yes. If I saw her up close, I'd want to give her a big hug. 🐰💗
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ I am sorry, my birthday is not September. Miscommunication?! Nobody knows my birthday. Are you ok? Please do not misunderstand. I dare not ask/ about 5W1H questions. Keep been longer to be together on GS(I think).
Good morning. ☺️✨ Do you have something sweet?❓️ I went out for breakfast☕. My husband and I worked in our vegetable garden early in the morning, so I'm feeling refreshed. A nearby coffee shop was having a limited-time moon-viewing festival, so I shared a "Tsukimi Crounage" with my friend. 😋Sweets taste even better when you're tired. 🐰💗
Yes. I'm sure you were talking about your son's child. About the incident on September 16th. Also, you don't need to say anything about your privacy that you don't want to be touched upon. It's okay. 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ 【This is just a friendly reminder 🤫】 What are the two pictures that she(who lives in Kanagawa Pref.) showed you ?🤔😊 You are looking forward to your 70th year trip. Which country are you planning to go to ?✈️🚙💨🚶♀️💦 Hoitara-ne again !😉🤭🌞✌️
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good! I am happy to hear that. Some people ~ suffering from their sickness ~…we are having happy life. ‘say thank you to your husband’😄 Good day together with smile 😊
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. She and her son visited America 🇺🇸. She wants to go back to New York. We had a great time in New York, We will be back~ yes,70th! How is your day? Not to much planning? Talk with your wife, she goes, ✌🏻you will go! Take care of your wife, too. Happiness with smile 😊
Yes, that's right. When we go out, my husband drives the car and we have breakfast or lunch on the way. Today, I worked in the vegetable garden in the morning, so I made pasta for lunch at home. 🐰💗
I was feeling healthy again today, and in the morning, my husband and I worked on various things, like preparing the vegetable garden and putting up weed barrier sheets. After lunch, I took a nap. It helps me feel better. 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your advice ! 😄👌 How do Yuming know that oni-chang am giving my wife a hard time ? 🤔💦 That's absolutely correct.🤗🙆♀️👌 I can't look my wife in the eye. 👀 By the way, the autumnal equinox is coming soon.🍂 Will it be cooler like autumn ? 😊✌️ "Atsusa samusa mo Higan made." tte ne. Hoitara-nette-ne.🌞😌😉
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good morning. ☀️ Yes. After my swimming, I parked my car in my garage and walked cross street and took a photo by myself. How are you? It’s getting cooler!? My place, no more hot days from now. Happy Autumn 🍂! 😊
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good! You looks like to have lunch…, everyday? If you do, it’s ok. But I told you…take care of yourself. Excise~at your Jim. Happy life as long as we can. You are younger than I am. But! Take care of yourself. We are together on GS. 😊
@太陽の塔 Good morning! You know…husband & wife! It’s the strongest to do something ~ if we a alone, we have will to go for ~. That’s why I told you ‘thank to your wife’/ best partner in your life. Life is enjoyable. We will have a good time together! 😊😊
Hello ☺️✨ Yes, it felt cool and chilly in the early morning, but it's still hot during the day. In the afternoon, the sky became slightly cloudy ☁. It doesn't look like it's going to rain here ☔️. I found some flowers and snapped a picture 📸✨This moment is so fun. 🐰💗
Today, a female friend of mine gave me a gift of her granddaughter, so I gave her a gift in return and had breakfast ☕. She looked at my granddaughter, who was born last month, and showed me her friend's grandchildren, and we talked and asked each other things like, "What are your grandchildren interested in now?" Time flies. 🐰💗
No, no. I don't eat out for lunch every day. At home, we sometimes eat leftovers from last night or make noodles or simple dishes for lunch. If I get tired from gardening, I go out for lunch. There are many other things. I try to stick to eating lunch at home as much as possible. 🐰💗
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good morning! 🌞 It’s the same at your place. Chilly in the early morning. I leave home 6:00am for my club every morning. Day time is getting shorter. Good day together! 😊
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good! I feel better to think of you. You know~…backing to 2006~ 2016, for 10 years, I was in Honolulu. party 3 days a week. Rotary Club/every Tuesday lunchtime. 5:00pm cocktails by ~ company host. … eventually I was getting tired ~ to go for the parties 🎉 happiness. No more parties, I became 58 years old at that time. Good day together. 😊
So you lived in Honolulu for 10 years ☺️✨ In 2006, the Honolulu Festival was held in Honolulu, with Ala Moana Shopping Center and Waikiki Beach Walk serving as venues. Also, you watched the FIFA World Cup: on June 22, 2006, you watched the soccer World Cup match between Japan and Brazil at the hotel. 10 years is a very precious time, and it seems like you lived a glamorous life. 🐰💗
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. That’s right. How do you know~ were you there? By net 👌 Yes. I was living in Waikiki at that time. I was living on the 27th floor of the 33th floor building. I had a nice scenery from the window ~ I started swimming during that. We have a great swimming on the 15th floor. “Why not? Let’s start swimming “. It was in 2004. …from the beginning, swimming for 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes. In Hawaii. Since 2016~ 60 minutes ~ for a long time. This March(2025 March), I started swimming for 75 minutes. Everyday. Never off. I am a Brest swimmer(hiraoyogi). 1.5 kilometers/day. 45km/month
Sorry I have talked too much. Our life, even one joy of everyday. Let’s go for a nice day together! with smile 😊
Good morning. ☺️✨It seems that it rained last night ☔️. The potted plants in leucofilm were getting too small, so I moved them to the field. I was also hesitant to replant my Banksweet Rose 💛 due to the weather, but I decided to go ahead and get my husband to help me. 🐰💗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) Yes, I looked up the events of 2006 on Google. It was around that time that you started swimming. There's a swimming pool on the 15th floor of your apartment, so it must have been a great place. Yumiko swims breaststroke. 1.5km a day is amazing. It's okay to talk to me 🐰💗
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. That’s right. I swim 1.5 km for 75 minutes everyday. I swim 45km a month. You know…actually I am an old woman. Still I will try~ with smile Keep being healthy! Life is Good. LG
I know you're my older sister. You told me about it before. You talk to me like a normal person, so I don't feel your age. It's amazing that you can swim 1.5km breaststroke every day. 75 minutes. 45km a month is amazing. 🐰💗
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. Yes. I swim 1.5 km/day. 45km/month. This is my goal. I am 67 years OLD woman. It’s enough to keep this way. And keep my weight(96~97pounds). You have been good, too. Let’s go for today and tomorrow! 😊
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) I haven't been going out and walking lately, and I've been spending my time in my vegetable garden, so I'm not sure how my figure is 😆
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good morning! 🌞 How are you? Thank you for a message. Your comment is… I would like to give you back. Ok~. You tried to talk to me ~ ! Fantastic. I will not forget you. I will ask you to take a rest. You will have a great day as usual. 👍 Let’s go for ~ Life is Good! LG😊
