Friday - Sunny, rainy, cloudy, muggy

A good day.

I got up this morning, watched my show and did a little computer stuff.  I also did a load of laundry and hung it up.  Yay me.

F came home from the hospital and taking his mother to lunch around 1pm.  I was a tad miffed as I thought WE had lunch plans but realized that I hadn’t really reminded him about them.  Since he had already eaten, going to a lunch buffet didn’t make sense.  Oh well.  I suggested going to Bikkuri Donkey!! as I wanted him to share the new salad with me.  I didn’t think he’d want to eat very much.  He ended up getting a lunch set, which is huge, so did eat a lot more than me!  He had a burg steak, which came with rice and miso soup and a small salad, and he shared the spicy taco salad with me too.  Still, I have to remember he’s a man and gets to eat more than me.  So not fair!

Since neither of us had any plans for the afternoon, I suggested going to the doctor.  I wanted to get some meds in case I get sick when I’m in Canada.  Since I have asthma, it’s a pre-existing condition and isn’t covered by travel health insurance.  And, I’d rather not have to go to the doctor in Canada if I don’t have to!  Apparently there’s a lot of smoke in the air from the US forest fires, so anyway, that’s what we did.

While I was in with the doctor, F asked him for the medicine for me and then I asked the doctor to reassure F that I am healthy and NOT losing weight too fast!  He’s made a couple of comments recently that he is worried because I have lost so much weight. Anyway the doctor took my blood pressure, said it was better and that was that.  

I offered to buy F a drink in Doutors so off we went to the mall.  I got us each an orzo latte…mine was cold today, his was hot.  I really liked it more cold, so I might have it that way again.  

We came home, ostensibly for an hour before F went to walk his dog, but actually much longer!  F wanted a nap, so we both took one, but I got up after an hour, F got up briefly to call his mother and say he wasn’t coming and then went back to sleep.  He roused himself around 8:30 or so.  

We had dinner tonight in the Indian/Nepali restaurant on the main road.  We had the Couple Set and it was pretty good.  We got to choose our curry, naan and drinks so that was nice.  I had chicken curry, F had pork, I had garlic naan, he picked cheese and I had oolong tea, he had a lassi.  We also got a big plate of mixed grill which I didn’t really expect.  I thought we might get one or two small things on a plate.  Wrong!  My naan was great, his was a bit like a cheese pizza, so I only had a piece of it.  The curries were nice.  We were stuffed when we left the restaurant.  

We came home and just vegged.  F went to bed quite early and I’m still up.  F is really sleepy a lot of the time.  I’m not sure if it is a leftover from his stay in the hospital or if it is the medicine, but he can sleep so much.  I hope he’s okay.

With the weather, I couldn’t take the blanket outside for some arty shots, so please be patient a little longer to see it in all it’s glory!  

Not sure what we’ll get up to exactly tomorrow.  I have a dentist appointment at 2 pm so after that, who knows?  Hope you’ll come back later and find out about my day.  Until tomorrow….
