The photo above is before going out this morning. The hair from the butt to the tail was all-you-can-grow, and although it wasn’t noticeable, the hair from the neck to the back was quite long.
カットが終わって帰ってきたのがこちら。スッキリしたね。
Here is the one that came back after the cut. It feels good !
After the shampoo cut, the veterinarian checked the whole body to see if Konatsu was in good physical condition, but I found an inflammation of about 1 cm on the right flank. I was asked by Dr, “Did Konatsu have any pretense that her body was itchy and scratching?”, But I can’t think of anything in particular. It looks red and swollen and begins to suppurate. “I’ll give Konatsu an injection of anti-suppuration and give her a week’s worth of medicine,” he said. Konatsu was lucky to have shampoo and cut today.
It was like this. On the other hand, the weight of Konatsu is 18.5kg, which is 900g less than the previous 19.4kg, which is effective for dieting! However, even if she has been on a diet for the past few months, I cannot let her guard down because it is increasing or decreasing.
My mother used to use nursing care several times a month, but from this September she moved into a nursing home. Now, going to attend a monthly health checkup is an opportunity to meet my mother, and today is the day.
同じ敷地内に病院が併設されていて、そこまで車いすを押していくのですが､､､
There is a hospital on the same site, and my wife push my mother’s wheelchair to the hospital…
今日はこなつも一緒に行って、久しぶりのご対面。
Today, Konatsu went with us and met my mother for the first time in a while.
さすがこういう時のワンコの癒しの力は大きいようで、母が嬉しそうに笑顔になっていた。
As expected, the healing power of the dog at such times seemed to be great, and my mother smiled happily.
Autumn is a harvest time when a lot of best foods are available. So in Japan we say, “Autumn fills up our bellies.” Taro from Fukui prefecture, which we started ordering last year. It arrived today.
Sakurashinmachi “Takeno to Ohagi”, which is also introduced on TV.
この美しい容器を見た瞬間から期待が膨らむ。
Expectations grow from the moment I see this beautiful package.
こなつも期待してる？(笑)
Are you expecting too? (lol)
蓋を開けると、おはぎと言うより和菓子のようです。どれを取ろうか迷ってしまう。
When you open the lid, it’s more like Japanese sweets than Ohagi. I’m wondering which one to take. Ohagi is a type of Japanese bean cake, rice ball coated with sweetened red beans, soybean flour or sesame.
毎日メニューが違うらしく、今日はこの7種類
It seems that the menu is different every day, and today these 7 types
「まだ食べないんですか」とこなつ
It seems that Konatsu is saying, “Don’t you eat yet? I’m hungry.”
After returning from the trip the other day, my daughter has been staying at home. It was a happy day for Konatsu. But my daughter is going back to her house today …
This is Okazaki City Baseball Stadium. It’s about 300km from Kamakura, but this time it was a fun trip while driving my car with two alumni.
鎌倉を6:30に出発して球場に11時頃に到着。右側が私。
We left Kamakura at 6:30 and arrived at the stadium around 11:00. The right side is me.
結果は実力を発揮できず残念な敗戦となり、来春のセンバツ甲子園の出場は無くなった。
As a result, they were unable to demonstrate their abilities and were unfortunately defeated, and they were no longer able to participate in the national tournament next spring.
Finally, recently, such a sign has been displayed in a park in Kamakura City. This is wrong and problematic, judging from the Kanagawa Prefecture Ordinance and the Kamakura City Ordinance. I would like to take up it at a later date.
I would like to thank all the visitors from overseas for your many comments. I will not reply to you individually, but thank you for reading. I appreciate your continuous support, thank you again !
I can’t write an article about Konatsu today, so it’s a miscellaneous feeling. I am on a business trip to Gunma today and tomorrow. While driving on the Kan-Etsu Expressway on the way, the area near the summit of the mountain range (probably in the direction of Mt. Tanigawa and Mt. Asahi ahead of Minakami Onsen) looks vaguely white. There is no snow on Mt. Asama yet. When I arrived in Gunma, it was unexpectedly warm and surprising. Recently, Mt. Aso has erupted, pumice stones from the eruption of submarine volcanoes have flowed, and small earthquakes have occurred here and there. I hope that no major disaster will occur.
いつもの仕事場の群馬県甘楽町。相変わらずのどかな風景。 今日はこなつの記事を書けないので雑感です。
Kanra Town, Gunma Prefecture, where I work this time. The idyllic scenery as usual.
The state of emergency was lifted, and yesterday the number of newly infected COVID-19 in Kanagawa Prefecture was nine. So I invited two friends to think that it would be okay to have a dinner for about four people.
いつもと違う気配を感じ取ったこなつは時間前からソワソワ。
Konatsu felt a different sign from usual, she felt ansty from a while ago.
My wife took the time to cook a lot, starting with the appetizer. (Back left) Cucumber and squeezed vegetables with sesame seeds (Back right) Squid and celery with lemon dressing (Front left) Octopus, kimchi, avocado sauce (Front right) Stir-fried king trumpet and green pepper

まだ他にアタシが食べられるものはないの？とテーブルを見上げている。
“Is there anything else I can eat yet?” she looked up at the table.
料理もお酒もどんどん進み、次は大根のステーキ。

The dessert is a cake made from persimmons in my garden. it was a fun time
Yesterday, when I got home after work, I crossed the Takebashi JCT of the Metropolitan Expressway-Rainbow Bridge and joined the Bayshore Line. It’s a normal video, but I’ll upload it.
レインボーブリッジから見るお台場の夜景はキレイなのですが最後は湾岸線の渋滞にはまってしまいました。 The night view of Odaiba seen from the Rainbow Bridge is beautiful, but at the end I got stuck in the traffic jam on the Bayshore Line.
一夜明けて、今朝は冷たい雨。 After dawn, it was cold rain this morning.
It was raining yesterday and snow was piled up on Mt. Fuji and it looked so beautiful this morning. After all, it suits Mt. Fuji to be covered with snow so much.
こちらは今朝のこなつ。穏やかに過ごしています。
This is Konatsu this morning. She is spending her time calmly.
Sometimes she is a faithful dog waiting for my wife to return in front of the front door. At this time, it took about 20 minutes for my wife to come back, but she kept waiting without moving this place.
さて、久しぶりに高校野球の話 Well, it ’s been a while since I ’ve been talking about high school baseball.
In Japan, a competition is held every year in which high schools from all over the country participate and compete for the best in Japan. My alma mater ⑥ came in 3rd place in the prefectural tournament this time and got the right to participate in the Tokai regional tournament. They will be able to compete in the national tournament next spring if they are in second place in this tournament. So, at the end of the month, I will go to support!
This is a dog run just below the Chigasaki coast exit of the Shin-Shonan Bypass. I was invited by Anne’s owner to go there for the first time in a while.
ここは敷地の半分はバイパスの下だから雨が降っても遊びに行けますね。
Half of the site is under the bypass so I can go play even if it rains.
道を挟んで向こう側はゴルフ場です。
The golf course is on the other side of the road.
イタリアンハウンドドッグかな？ この子に気に入られたのか盛んにこなつを誘ってきます。
Is it an Italian hound dog? This dog actively invites Konatsu to play, maybe he likes Konatsu.
なんだ、まだまだ走れるじゃん！ って感じの1枚
What, you can still run! One piece that feels like
最近のアンちゃんは優しい表情で写ることが多いね。
Recently Anne is often photographed with a gentle expression.
この子はオーストラリアンシェパード、まだ若くて元気だ。
This dog is an Australian Shepherd, still young and energetic.
Unfortunately, it was raining on the first day, but by the time we arrived, it almost stopped raining, and we used this sign as a landmark to turn right and climb the slope.
フロント棟の前までスタッフの方々が出迎えてくれて、部屋まで荷物を運んでいただいたので助かりました。
The staff welcomed us to the front of the entrance and carried our luggage to each room, which was helpful.
今回、我が家が泊まるのは蛍の部屋で、アンズちゃん達は松風の部屋。
This time, my family stays in the “Hotaru” room, and Anne’s family stays in the “Matsukaze” room.
ここはどの部屋も大正モダンのデザインに統一されていて、とてもシックで落ち着きます。
All the rooms here are unified in the Taisho Roman design, and it is very chic and calm.
こなつは早速室内の散策を開始し、あちこちを歩き回っています。
Konatsu immediately started walking around the room.
これはアタシ専用のお風呂ね！ ワンコのお風呂まで檜造りです、凄いね。
“This is a bath exclusively for me!” The bath for the dog is made of cypress, which is amazing.
The trees in the garden begin to turn red and have a very beautiful view. After that, it was time for dinner while bathe in the hot springs and relaxing.
Now that we came with two families, we wanted to have a fun meal together, so we asked the staff to prepare for four people in the room of Anne-family. A table for four people is set in the room, but it is a luxurious dinner that can not be put on the table alone.
This is a Japanese kaiseki course. I took the picture without opening the lid of the bowl, so it may be difficult to convey the deliciousness and beauty of the appearance, but it was very delicious.
満腹になった後は寝るだけです。そして時計は翌朝まで一気に進み､､､
After I’m full, I just go to bed. And the time goes to the next morning at once, …
朝の散歩は併設のドッグランに行きました。
For the morning walk, we went to the dog park on the Hannari site.
年齢のせいか最近はあまり走らなくなったこなつだけど、今朝は良く走ったね。
Konatsu hasn’t run much lately because she’s old, but she ran well this morning.
アンズちゃんも楽しそうな顔してる。
Ann also looks happy.
早起きして運動すれば昨夜あれだけ食べたのに快調にお腹が空くんですよねぇ(笑)
We ate so much last night, but we got hungry while getting up early and exercising.(lol)
そうは言っても朝からこんなに食べられるの？と思ったのですが、結局は食べてしまいました。
Even so, can you eat this much? Yes, we can !
前日からの雨はすっかり上がり今日は良い天気。11時近くまで部屋でゆっくりしてチェックアウト。
The rain from yesterday has completely stopped and it is fine today. Relax in the room until around 11am and then check out.
Next, we went to the direct sales shop of Tanakaya noodle factory in Ito city. Yakisoba here is delicious noodles that I would like to recommend for the locals’ favorite food Grand Prix.
長男は700g超の凄いボリュームで540円！
The L size is 540 yen with a great volume of over 700g!
そして、伊東マリンタウンへ
Next, we went to the roadside station “Ito Marine Town”.
This is a roadside station for marine products, but today I wanted to take a sightseeing boat (dogs can also board) where you can see the underwater conditions. However…
All boats canceled due to typhoon No. 19 approaching. It doesn’t look like the waves are so high when you look offshore, but it’s a shame. I don’t know if it’s a substitute, but …
岸壁から海中を見たら、ソラスズメダイ(上)とメジナ？アオダイ？(下)。
I looked at the sea from the quay, I saw the damselfish (above) and the blackfish? or snapper?(under) It was a fun two days.
As usual, the temperature is high in the daytime, and even in Gunma, yesterday’s daytime was close to 30 degrees Celsius, which makes it difficult for the autumn leaves to progress.
This is my work room in Gunma. I am a dental worker, and as a reminder to all of you, a system that allows you to use your Individual Number Card as an insurance card will start this month. If you would like to know more details, please click link above.
Konatsu rarely walked to a place close to everyone. But she’s just doing this. Since the time when Konatsu first came here 10 years ago, the generations have gradually changed, and finally Konatsu has become the oldest. “For the time being, I can’t give up my oldest position.”
This time I went to a concert in Karuizawa with my wife and daughter and planned to stay overnight at Regina Mikage Irrigation. I bought tickets about two months ago without knowing that the state of emergency would be lifted at the end of September, but as expected, the highway to go was heavily congested. Car accidents occurred in several places along the way, and it took more than 5 hours to reach Karuizawa.
渋滞中のこなつ。もううんざりという表情でママにもたれかかっている。
Konatsu in a traffic jam. She is leaning against my wife with the expression “I’m tired of it.”
午後１時半過ぎ、開演30分前にかろうじて軽井沢大賀ホールに到着。
After 1:30 pm, we barely arrived at Karuizawa Ohga Hall 30 minutes before the performance started.
今日は福間洸太郎さんのピアノリサイタルです。バッハ＆メンデルスゾーン
Today is Kotaro Fukuma’s piano recital. Bach & Mendelssohn
Although it is a rather small hall with a capacity of about 700 people, it is a hall donated by Sony Chairman Oga and has a characteristic sound. It feels like the piano sound is heard from around the center of the audience.
約２時間のコンサートを楽しんで、それからレジーナリゾート御影用水に向かった。
We enjoyed the concert for about two hours and then headed to Regina Resort Karuizawa.
When we came here last time, when I asked for the M size of this, it seemed that Konatsu was not enough, so this time I tried to make it the L size. I thought it was a little too much, but it was completely eaten. ~ It’s been a little longer so to be continued. ~
