Whale tale

It maybe a little silly thing to talk. 

But I had a dream about whales last night. 

I met two whales by the shore. 

One is a big old whale, and the other one was a small young whale.

The big was was about the size of a small house. 

I looked up to see her and I couldn't see the sky.

I guess she was floating in the air.

I asked how old she was and she said almost 80. 

We were all around the water.

They grubbed me in their mouth softly and pulled me down into the deep water a few times. 

They did that a few times each.

I was not scared. 

I feel like they were trying to tell me something. 

I may knew what it was during the dream,.

Though I do not remember now. 

What I remember is that they were sad and a little angry. 

They were also in a rush. 

They had to cross the field of rocks to get to the other water. 

So they jumped and jumped to move forward through the field. 

I was watching them and terribly worried that they are getting lots of wounds all over on their body. 

They said they were fine.

I brought a big chair for the big whale.

I thought she would be tired.

I wonder what they wanted to tell me.

That's all.

師走

師走か。

In Japan, we call December "Shiwasu".
If I write it with Kanji, it's like this "師走".
Shi し（師） means the monk of Budhism.
Wasu わす（走） means "running".

So, this word means "the monk is running." All people are busy in December in Japan. New year is a celebration, family and relatives get together, go visit temples and shrines. So, even the monks run from place to place in December. This word "Shiwasu" shows the busyness of Japanese life in December.

It's time to clean up the mess of 2014, and be ready physically and mentally for the coming year of 2015.


と、英語で師走の説明をしつつ、日本語は関係ない話しよう。
それにしても寒い。

昨日は初雪、今日はマイナス２度くらいだ。雪もまだ少し残っている。
ブログを書いているけど、実はココ３日間声が全く出ない。

先週の月曜にかかったインフルエンザ、治ったと思ったら最後の方に変な風邪を貰ったのかもしれない。

声が出ないと、ふとしたときに困る、例えば電話とか。声が出ないからこちらからはかけないけど、かかって来た電話につい出てしまった時、返答するにも声が無いので、相手を驚かせてしまう、今回はうちのママさんからでした。


久々に４０度の熱も出たインフル、声がこんなに出なくなったのは人生で初。なので、先週の木曜の感謝祭でちょっと出かけた意外、完全に引きこもり。冷蔵庫の中を掃除するようにお野菜など使い切ってスープなど作って過ごしているので外は寒いがお財布は暖かい。お野菜が沢山あってよかった。猫も居ればもっと良かった。


今夜もまだ声が出ないので、もう２日間くらいはかかりそうです。

今宵はマイナス４度。暖まって寝よう。
