November 25, ’25 Salon (Tuesday)

It was such a wonderful happy encounter to see a young man for the first time since 2020, I presume.

I was so amazed and impressed by to see his growth. It seemed he was very confident with his achievement on his job search as a librarian, gotting a good, stable job at City Lyon.

I said sorry to his father, my good professor friend, on my fault that I made a few scars on the floor of his entrace hall. Professor said that he mended it and were recovered 80 percent! Eric said he did not notice them at all! We all laught out a lot.

Eric enjoyed the scenery of Hirakata Bay. We also talked about a lot, such as about his sister, and my French friends.

We talked about Bouchee a la reine!

Eric gave me a box of biscuits which he loves and has been enjoying even he grows!

I was invited twice to a Christmas party at his house in Miura. I reallt want to come his house again. But I am not very sure at this moment whether I can come to in a harsh weather.

September. 27, ’25 Salon

Unexpected fortunate which happened today was a fun salon/chattering with my dear friend Setsuko-san.

She came, had lunch together then sang various autumn songs with my piano! Was fun and released stresses we had(?) More on that we became wiser than before!!

She knew the song「月見草の花」, it was interesting for me, as I haven’t heard that song before my Komo-friend asked me to play.


Next singing opportunity will be “The Autumn Concert” on the 2nd of November.

It was so much fun to get together and sang various songs we love. I was very pleased to be with my good friends who understood my clear intention on the concert. They helped me achieving my small but precious goal.

March. 1, ’25 Salon

久しぶりのサロン風お喋りの会。気にしてたことについて相談したり、「声が出ない」と言いながら一緒に歌を歌い、私はピアノを弾いて、いい時間があった。お礼のメールは「この年齢になると楽しい話ばかりじゃないけど、めげずになるべく楽しくやりましょうね!」となった。

櫻田亮Akiraのイタリア歌曲を聴き、野ばら・早春賦・どこかで春が・朧月夜・・・。歌は楽しい、心を癒し・悩みからしばし心を解き放つ。
