最近のカレンダーは旧暦の記載はなく、24節季がいつかも全く分からない。今日が小寒とはテレビで知った次第だ。お正月を過ぎ日差しは毎日強くなってきてはいるが、気温の方はこれから大寒に向けて、下降する。今日も昨日程の晴天ではなく、雲も掛かっていて、昨日よりは大分肌寒い。
殆ど終日家にいる。クリスマスにノルウエーの京子さんの主人から手紙が来て、その返事を書く。何故かスペルチェックの機能が使えず、スペル確認に手間取った。おおよそ出来たので、明日は投函しよう。写真も幾つか選んで送ってやろう。



Dear Oledag,
 
My name is Toshio,husband of deceased wife Yumiko. She died at last August,aged 68.She passed away after 30 years long period of medical treatment of SLA(Lupus Erythematosus,severe    illness,kind of Collagen disease,type of Renal disorder).
 
We received your letter and photos at Christmas period and now I am sending to you along with several photos of Yumiko.
 
Many many years ago,more than 30 years ago,yourwife Kyoko-san and your son Olof? visited my home Koganei-city,Tokyo,and stayed two nights. At that time Olof maybe 7-8 years old,and next day I drived for your family to Tama Zoology.Maybe he remembers.
 
More than 10 years ago,Yumiko moved redidence to Kasukabe-city,Saitama,in order to receive better treatment of precise medical care at Kasukabe hospital,meanwhile Kyoko-san and your family once visited Yumiko‘s home at Kasukabe.At that time I didn’t meet your family.
 
Yumiko had deep depression to hear that Kyoko-san deceased,and 1 year later she teared solely when she received your letter with photos of her tomb.
She always told that Kyoko-san passed earlier and waiting at the Heaven, so any time ready to go there.
 
Time has passed already 49days and 100days,so Yumiko is approaching to the heaven and will meet Kyoko-san again soon. 
 
Although Japanese contents that I wrote for Yumiko‘s memory to present to the people attending at 49days bury ceremony,I will send this along with Yumiko’s photos,so please devote to the late Kyoko-san tomb. They will meet soon again,and talking for long time.
 
Thank you for your letter,and hoping you and your family good luck!
