Sunday blues

Hello!!! It seems that I caught a cold. I feel tired...I must admit that of all parts of year this is the worst part of the year. I am listening to some music by Dutch jazz singer Laura Fygi...She has great voice. So, if you have a chance to listen to some of her stuff....go for it...I recommend it.
As I already mentioned in my last post, here in Croatia we have nice names for months of the year...As I saw on the internet some other nations have it too...I am mentioning Japan...
January - mutsuki, affection month
February - (kisaragi or kinusaragi, changing clothes)
March - (yayoi, new life; the beginning of spring)
April - (uzuki, hare month)
May - (satsuki, fast month)
June - (minatsuki or minazuki, month of water)
July - (fumizuki, book month)
August - (hazuki, leaf month)
September - (nagatsuki, long month)
October - (kaminazuki or kan'nazuki, month of the gods), (kamiarizuki, month of the gods – used only in Izumo province, where all the gods are believed to gather in October for an annual meeting at the Izumo Shrine
November - (shimotsuki, frost month)
December - (shiwasu, priests run; it is named so because priests are busy making end of the year prayers and blessings.)
That's all for today. Have a wonderful week. See you soon. Bye!!

Hi,dear Mislav!

Sorry for the long time since I visited this blog for the last time. It´s because I had busy days. You know I´m a teacher and in the end of the school year is very hard. Congratulations for one more wonderful post! Have a very nice weekend and a Merry Christmas!
