January 28, 2023: My Wife, Her Mood （ボクの妻、機嫌）

It has been about three months since my wife started a new job. She seems to be settling in and enjoying her work. She works three days a week. Working around that much is perfect for her. It is not physically demanding. When she started, she used to complain that she had nothing to do at work and could not bear sitting still at her desk. But lately, I have not heard her complaints. She now has a routine. She also seems to get a new job, making her walk around the office. She looks in good shape, both mentally and physically.
I can see her mood as soon as she opens the front door of our house. When she is in a bad mood, she comes directly to me and begins to complain. When she is in a good mood, she starts things she wants to do without coming to me.
I hope that she keeps in a good mood.

　妻が新しい仕事を始めて、約3ヵ月が経ちました。職場にも慣れてきて、快適に過ごしているようです。今は、週に3日出勤しています。久々の電車通勤なので、肉体的にはこのぐらいがちょうどいいようです。通い始めたころとは、仕事がなく、机に向かってじっとしているのがつらかったようです。そのため、帰ってくると、ぶつぶつ文句をいう時もありました。でも、最近はそんなこともすっかりなくなりました。毎日やる仕事ができたようです。また、新しい仕事も増えたようです。仕事が増え、社内を動き回るようになり、心身共に快適のようです。
　妻の機嫌は、家の玄関にはいった瞬間にわかります。機嫌が悪いときは、ぼくのところ直行して、不満を語り始めます。機嫌が悪くないときは、ボクを無視して、自分のやりたいことをはじめます。
　どうか、機嫌良く通ってもらいたいものです。
