We had a big typhoon on the last Wednesday.
We have not experienced such big typhoons for several years in my prefecture.
We had much rain and terribly storm wind through the night.
Next day, the typhoon had passed away but still we had storm wind in the morning, so most of school decided to close all the day.
After typhoon passed away, we usually have a very fine day.
The sky would become clean and blue, without any clouds.
We had a very comfortable day, although strong wind still remained.
There is the Japanese word "Taifu Ikka(台風一過)", in English "After typhoon passed", which means that it becomes fine weather after typhoon went away.
Now autumn has come!

A Japanese proverb says,"NEKO NO TE MO KARITAI".
"NEKO NO TE" means "cats' hands", "KARITAI" means "I want to borrow."
That means "I'm too busy so I need any help even cats' hands!"
Yes,we Japanese people think that cat is an useless animal.Of course they sometimes catch mise and prevent our house from gnawing our house,but that's all.

Cats doesn't obey our orders like dogs,they don't watch house,they don't play with us,they don't come to us when we call them, they always lie around and sleep all the time.
And only a few time, they come up to us with purring and lovely face...only when they want to do.
(Of course I know this IS the cat that atracts me!)

This week,I've had in that situation...I've had very tough days sinse last Friday.
When I got tired and came back home, my cat always meet me with his most peaceful way...sleeping in KOTATSU!
And his such way make me happy anyway...
