My Actifit Report Card: June 14 2024 🗯️ My son at a rebellious age / 長男の反抗期

（日本語は後半にあります）

【English】

Today was a hot and humid day with a high temperature of 31 degrees Celsius. I went out for a walk in the morning to walk as much as I could, but gave up after about 3,000 steps because it was too hot and humid and the sun was too strong.

Hot, just hot... The sunflowers had already begun to bloom in the flower beds by the park, which made me cringe. Please, don't turn into summer so quickly! ... It's going to be hot all the way through September and October anyway! So my morning walk did not reach 5,000 steps, and I stayed home after that until the evening.

I was a little happy to see Lacecap Hydrangeas blooming beautifully. I like them because they are more subdued than regular hydrangeas.

Recently, my 11 year old son has been rebellious, maybe he is at a rebellious age. When I say something to him, he replies in a very blunt manner, “I know,” “ Ah...,” etc., which makes me very angry. It's not that I don't talk to him at all, but when I do talk to him, we get irritated with each other.... But I can't help it if I try to beat my own child into a pulp, so I try to pass on his grumbling and complaining as much as I can. Sometimes, though, I can't get through it, and I lose my temper.

He and I have conversations every day that are not quite battles, but not peaceful either, and it is exhausting. And when I get angry, it's hot. I wonder if my six-year-old son, who is smiling and in a good mood every day now, will become like that someday.

After dinner, I walked to the drugstore to buy a face wash. Once the sun sets, the heat eases a little. The photo is of loquat by the park. Every year they bear a large number of fruits, but I have never seen anyone harvesting or disposing of them. The ripe fruit had fallen to the ground and the smell of rotting was in the air.

Adding a single evening walk, the number of steps managed to exceed 5,000!

今日は最高気温31度、しかも蒸し暑い1日でした。午前中のうちにできるだけ歩こうと散歩に出たものの、蒸し暑さと陽射しに耐え切れず、3,000歩程度で断念してしまいました。

暑い、とにかく暑い…。公園の脇の花壇にはもう向日葵が咲き始めていて、思わずゾッとしたほどです。そんなに急いで夏にならなくてもいいのに… どうせ9月、10月までずっと暑いんだから！そんなわけで午前中の散歩では5,000歩には届かず、その後は夕方まで家で過ごしました。

ガクアジサイが綺麗に咲いていたのはちょっと嬉しかったです。普通のアジサイより控えめな感じがして好きなんですよね。

最近、11歳の長男が反抗期気味です。私が何か言うと「分かってる」「ん」など、凄まじくぶっきらぼうな返しをしてくるので非常に腹が立ちます。全く話をしないわけではないのですが、喋っても互いに沸点が低くなりがちというか…。でも子どもをやりこめたところで仕方がないので、長男の不機嫌、不満げな物言いはできるだけスルーするようにしています。たまにスルーし切れずブチ切れたりもしていますけど😅

長男と私との間には毎日、バトルとまではいかないものの平和的とも言えない会話があり、疲れてしまいます。しかも怒ると暑いし。今は毎日ニコニコと機嫌の良い6歳の次男も、いつかああなるのでしょうか。そう考えると今から憂鬱です😅

晩ごはんのあと、洗顔料を買いにドラッグストアまで歩きました。日が暮れれば、暑さは少しは和らぎます。写真は公園脇の枇杷。毎年大量に実がなるのですが、誰かが収穫したり、処分したりしているのは見たことがありません。熟した実が地面に落ちて、腐った臭いが漂っていました。

夜のひと歩きを追加して、歩数は何とか5,000を超えました！
