Today, I went to patrol around near the Hikone Castle.
There are many mascot dolls of HIKONYAN, our idle cat.

This is the shop of Japanese confectionery.

And beautiful flowers in front of the shops!

I'm a worker of Public Health Center, and one of my important job is to prevent food poisoning.
So I go on patrol to the restaurants to promote atention to the owners to cook food enough and much more cautious when they serve raw food like Sashimi.

Today, I went around countryside of our city.People here are VERY at ease.Only few people lock their house when they go out.

This is a Tofu shop without any keeper.

People come and take Tofu away from fridge and leave money into the box.

This is a boy waiting his mother come to pick him up.He lives just edge of the region, and it's far from school.
It used to be a resort houses where he lives, but now there living many families and make a little village.
Parents have to take their children to this shop by car, on the half way to school.Then, children walk to school for 30munites from here.
I can't understand why people choose to live in such inconvenient region, well, it's supposed to be the best place for vacation!

This is my mobile phone.It has a strap of Muttley, (Japanese name is Kenken) who is the best partner of Dastardly in "Wacky Race"".

Japanese mobile phone is very convenient.It has variable functions, and I can do whatever I want only with my mobile phone.
I read today's headline news in the morning, and check the weather report of my region.
Then I read some blog posts of my favorites or of my friends.

When I found something I don't know, I can search by google quickly.
If I have to go business trip tomorrow, I can search the way and fee of every means of transportation.
I use some kinds of dictionary, and I play games when I have so much time and don't have anything else to do.

Whenever I got a new schedule, I soon put it on my mobile phone and set alarm not to forget that.
I often buy something at auction site with mobile phone.
I can check all my PC mail, and reserve every kind of tickets, download music, take photos, watch TV and Youtube...everything with mobile phone!

Acutally, some young people don't have PC for net cruising.

Now I'm going to post this article by mobile phone.
It's effective utility of my time! ;-)

It's very hot and humid every day.

I cut my cat furr and made him COOL!
That's summer style, and the newest fashion here in Japan! ;-)

I'm tired... :-(

Actually I haven't publish a new post for a month.
I wonder what I have been doing...
At the end of May, Novel Influenza patient was confirmed in our city at last.
We had been a little busier with investigation or answering phone calls from people here.We opened 24hours phone answering section, and we stayed over night in our office by 2 shifts.

And I ran around here and there to trap many cats and spay/neuter them.Then, we accepted a lot of kittens and keep them to find new owners, but kittens' conditions changed worth suddenly, so we often had to run to vet.

Further more, my younger daughter did something very bad to her friend and school, so school teachers callled me and my husband to school.
They told my daughter to stay at home for 5days and think over deeply, why she did like that and how she should do from now.

I've been a littele tired in these days...Further more, it's very humid and uncomfortable in this season...

Now situations are getting better a little by little.
July is the busiest month in my office, so I have to encourage myself.
Gambarimasu!
