   Health Checkup
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

This year, I had my first medical checkup in two years.

The results showed that my weight was 61.8kg two years ago, but this year it had increased to 68.9kg.

All the values had worsened as well.

At the end of the examination, the nurse called me in and told me that if I continued like this, it would be very bad and I should have another examination at a later date.

It was true that I was not getting enough exercise and was eating a lot of fatty food.
I had been binge eating and drinking due to stress, and after eating I would feel sleepy and fall asleep.

About one million people in Japan are newly diagnosed with cancer every year.
According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, one out of every four to six cancer patients is discovered due to cancer screening or health checkups.
Since there are many diseases that do not easily show symptoms, I was reminded that it is important to check one’s health condition through regular health checkups and examinations.

   【 Momotaro 】Last Chapter
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

In order to eliminate prejudice based on gender and other factors, Momotaro was changed to a female character, and a story of reconciliation with demons through discussion was introduced.

The organizer probably intended to “flatten out the prejudice that men are often the protagonists and leaders.I suspect that they had the intention of making a woman the main character.
However, the following questions have been raised on the Internet.
Doesn’t this show the gender bias that “men are violent” and “women solve problems peacefully”?
I have been watching with interest.

In the last episode, I tried to make Momotaro look like a man who can evade the compliance of modern society.
In the previous article, I modified the three allies into wp humans.
From now on, let’s solve the remaining problems of the old story “Momotaro” at once.

To avoid racial discrimination, “demons” as living beings should not exist.
Avoid Momotaro’s unilateral plundering, which is not at all the fault of the “demons.

First of all, it is dangerous for children to go out to sea alone.
when crossing to Onigashima, let’s have a familiar boatman take us there.
As for “treasure,” let’s make it sound like “the beautiful sea is the treasure of the islanders” and “the islanders of Onigashima are all family members and important treasures.Although, bit of commonplace.

As a result of other adjustments, we came up with the following story.

Momotaro was told that there are real demons on Onigashima.
But in reality, Onigashima was crowded with fishermen who made their living by fishing.
It seems that the idea that there were demons was just an old legend.
When the fishermen learned that Momotaro had come to kill the demons, they laughed heartily.
One of the fishermen was a man whose face was vaguely similar to Momotaro’s.
“How old are you?
OO years old ( Borns year counting as one year old by old manner )

The man had a son who had just been born more than ten years ago.
He had just been born more than ten years ago, and he went missing during a storm.
He said that his son would be about Momotaro’s age if he were still alive.
Momotaro didn’t know why, but he had a hunch that this man was his true father.

Your eyes are just like my mother’s.

And so Momotaro was born on Onigashima, surrounded by the rich sea.
Momotaro thus found an irreplaceable family and a second home on Onigashima, surrounded by the rich sea.

Momotaro decided to stay in his original village for a while, so as not to make his grandparents sad,and he received a letter frm his father thanking them for their support.
Momotaro returned to the village with a dog, a monkey, and a pheasant (all children of the village).

   Music
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

As the times change, so does the music that is popular.

People seem to think that the music of the era they were listening to when they were adolescents is the best.

So, in my case, It was the 90s.

I still listen to music from that era on YOUTUBE when I’m working on something,

I listen to the latest trends, but I like the 90’s best.

However, true masterpieces will always be listened to no matter what time period they come from.

I like Beethoven’s Moonlight, for example, and I listen to it sometimes.

The song was created in 1802.

I realized that great songs are not affected by time.

   Narita Market
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Narita Airport is the gateway to Japan’s skies.
A new wholesale market is scheduled to open in January 2022 on the adjacent land.

The current “Narita City Public Local Wholesale Market” has been in operation for 47 years and has become decrepit, so the market will be relocated to a new location, with an area of about 92,700 square meters, which is the size of two Tokyo Domes.

In order to make the most of its location near Narita Airport and to make it a base for exporting agricultural, forestry, and marine products, it is said that it will be the first wholesale market in Japan to develop facilities that can complete quarantine and other procedures.

As a result, it will be able to issue export certificates and perform quarantine and explosives inspections in a one-stop service, reducing the time required for the procedures from the current 4-6.5 days to about 3 days.

It is going to be a very attractive market for companies that handle the export of quarantined goods.

It is hoped that the appeal of Japanese agricultural products will be further enhanced when they reach overseas consumers in a fresher state.

   TOKYO Olympic
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

The Tokyo Olympics were postponed for a year due to the coronavirus.
I myself had won a ticket to watch the surfing, but unfortunately I had to give it up when it was postponed.
This time, I watched the games on TV as much as time allowed.

The two events that left the biggest impression on me were skateboarding and surfing, both of which I love and are now official events.
Skateboarders and surfers encourage each other every time they fall or can’t catch a good wave.
I was very moved by the way they respected each other, regardless of national borders or age differences,
Whenever a technique was completed, they would praise each other, and when a technique was completed, they would praose each other.

I would like to live my life with respect for others and never forget to challenge them in my work and private life.
I was reminded of that.
I would like to thank all the players.

   Bicycle
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

It’s summer, so let me tell you a scary story.

The other day, I was riding my bicycle on my vacation to go shopping.

That day, I was wearing a long skirt that was ankle length.

It was very windy that day, so even though I was pedaling my bike, the wind was also blowing, causing my skirt to flail.

I thought it was inconvenient, but since it was long and I was in the neighborhood, I didn’t mind pedaling my bicycle.

Suddenly, The wheels made a strange noise, and I felt a jerk! I felt a sensation of being pulled backwards.

I stopped the bike suddenly and thought, “What? What? I turned around.
I can’t describe it well, but It was wrapped around the center of the rear wheel(?) like a scroll.

My skirt was bitten by the rear wheel.

Ooops, was in panic.
I can’t really describe it, but it was wrapped around the center of the rear wheel(?) like a scroll.
My skirt was bitten, so I crawled off the bike and tried to pull on it, but it was stuck tightly and wouldn’t budge.

When I tried to stand up, the force of the wheels pulling on me was stronger, and my skirt almost came off.

“What? What should I do? I can’t get it at all!
It’s a residential area, I’ll have to borrow some scissors from some house! You’re a prowler!
“the only way to be able to move freely is to take off this skirt!
Even if I do, will I be able to push my bike home with this skirt stuck in it?”
Even if I do take it off, I’m not going to push a bike home with this skirt stuck in it!

I struggled under the blazing sun. I couldn’t stop sweating, not from the heat.

I struggled for 2-3 minutes, but it wouldn’t come off at all.
I pushed the bike backwards and spun it in the opposite direction to see if the cloth would work. Finally, It was easily come off from the wheel.

It was like I had nine lives.( Escape from death )
After that, I pushed the bike all the way home, half in tears.

   Vacuum Packaging
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

I happened to be watching TV last night after coming home from work and found out that food packaging in the world is changing.

Plastic juice bottles are being replaced by aluminum cans, plastic seasoning bottles by paper packages, and plastic meat trays by vacuum packs.

As a carnivore, I spend a lot of time stopping at the meat corner of the supermarket, and it seems that vacuum-packed meat is beginning to account for an increasing percentage of the meat, although I think it is most common in poultry.

I have heard that the shelf life of vacuum-packed meat has been extended by about two days, partly due to the “SDGs,” as they are often called these days.

In the past, when meat was packaged in plastic trays, it was usually divided into small portions from the large vacuum-packed meat, and then wrapped and sent to the store.

As a result, the meat was exposed to air, which reduced the freshness of the meat.

In other words, we had become accustomed to seeing meat sold in trays in stores, but it was just that we were not used to seeing it, and it became more practical.

It may be similar to the time when MUJI ( No mark product ) came out.

It doesn’t look good, but as a product it’s well worth selling.

It’s true that trays look better, but in reality, vacuum-packed products are better.

It’s like anything else, but I’d like to be able to discern the fruit.
