Once again we’re faced with a day full of rainy weather. Yesterday really delivered, with a big rush in the evening just after I got home. There is even a typhoon coming today, but it looks like it’ll pass well to the south of us. Just a wet, wet day.<\/p>\n
With all this rain I’m starting to wonder if our rice seedlings we planted last week will be OK. A week ago today we went over to help Kuniko’s parents plant rice seedlings in trays to prepare for the rice planting in June. This part of the job isn’t so tough, but at the end we built miniature greenhouses over the seedlings so that they’d be nice and warm as they grow. Now I’m wondering if the greenhouses can withstand all this rain. <\/p>\n
Last week was a good opportunity to wish Kuniko’s mom a happy mother’s day, and give her some flowers and a little bit of cake for dessert. We also got to see Kuniko’s sister Tomoko and her husband Atsushi, who dropped by to help out. It turned out to be a somewhat rare extended family get-together. <\/p>\n
This week is wrapping up quickly. Tonight Kuniko has a party so I’ll be on my own to clean up the leftovers from the fridge, and tomorrow I’ll have a party after work with some ex-students. It’ll be nice to end the week and get back to my days of leisure…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
