I quietly leave the house in the morning before my family wakes up to spend some time alone.
Especially on mornings after it rains! Outside is a magical time and a beautiful world of sparkling rain drops.

Then disaster strikes in the midst of such a peaceful day. My husband, Uncle Pineapple, had a bout of urticaria due to food poisoning.
We had to go to the hospital and apply medicine.
Fortunately, the symptoms subsided within a week, but he seemed to be still tired.
As for me, I broke my camera and it needs to be repaired. But the repair will be done after the holidays.
In such cases, I do small handmade things.
I started making an apron by remaking a skirt my mother used to sew for me.
I feel relieved when I sew by hand.
I am now taking pictures with my old camera.

But the plants are growing freely without regard to our circumstances.
The small seedlings I planted are waiting to be replanted.

What a busy life!
