🌅 This Morning’s Sky and Weather

I woke up a little later than usual this morning.

The temperature was 21°C, with a forecast of 24°C and cloudy skies. I was worried because rain was forecast for yesterday, but when I opened the curtains, I was relieved to see the sun peeking through the clouds.

The chance of precipitation was 20%, and the humidity was 60%. Since I didn’t have any heavy laundry, I figured it would be dry by evening, so I put a load in the washing machine.

The sky was slightly overcast, with the sunlight fluctuating between strong and weak.

There was almost no wind, just enough to gently rustle the young leaves of the cherry trees.

It was a refreshing and pleasant morning.

🍞 Mom’s Breakfast and a Gentle Start

Mom woke up on her own at her own pace today.

She prepared breakfast while watching TV.

– Bread spread with butter and warmed in the air fryer

– Frozen fruit

– Yogurt

She ate half the bread and finished the yogurt.

She ate quite well for breakfast, and I could tell she was feeling good.

🧺 Laundry and a Conversation with Crows

After breakfast, I ran the dishwasher and went out to the balcony to hang up the laundry.

Then, a crow cawed from the top of a nearby building, a crow in the distance answered, and then another answer came from even further away…

It was as if they were having a conversation, and I found myself listening intently for a while.

Looking up at the sky, I was convinced, “It’s going to be fine today,” and hung up the laundry.

👚 Mom’s seasonal wardrobe change and her cleaning-up switch

After breakfast, my mother was full of energy and started her seasonal wardrobe change, rummaging through the closet.

She sorted through her clothes, muttering to herself as she put the ones she no longer wore into trash bags.

If she doesn’t organize things at times like this, her belongings just keep piling up, so it seems she’s taking the plunge and tidying up in her own way.

She also gathered up trash from all over the house and asked me, “Please take this out for me.”

🏡 Today’s Schedule and an Afternoon Visitor

I don’t have any specific shopping plans for today.

If I need anything, I plan to walk to the nearby supermarket.

The care manager is scheduled to visit this afternoon.

It looks like it will be a peaceful time where we’ll talk about Mom’s current condition and future plans, along with a bit of small talk.

📝 Summary

It was a quiet, slightly overcast morning, and my mother was feeling well, so a relaxed atmosphere filled the house.

The sound of crows I heard while hanging up the laundry, the sight of my mother busily changing out the seasonal clothes, and the time I’ll spend with the care manager this afternoon.

Even without anything special happening, it’s the accumulation of these small, everyday moments that brings me peace of mind.
