Tuesday - Rainy and snowy

An okay day.

I got up a bit early this morning and stayed up.  However, I ended up snoozing a bit on the couch. Sigh. During the break between programmes, I made the bed and put on my workout clothes.  Nothing was going to stop me from working out today.  I had my breakfast and some tea, and then when the programme was over, I started a workout dvd. And then stopped it 8 minutes later when the DVD player stopped working properly.  I’m not sure what happened, but it stopped reading the dvd.  It couldn’t read another one either, so I think the player is borked. 

I thought F would come home for lunch, so I put off my workout.  He didn’t show up, so after lunch time, I used YouTube and my computer and got a few minutes of a workout on.  Yay for me.  

I took a shower, had lunch and did some computer stuff.  I scanned my postcards, but didn’t run them to the post office because I thought I’d write a few more tonight.  

F came home after work and got ready for his party.  He put on a jacket, called a taxi and off he went.  I was just about to have dinner when he called me.  He’d got the dates mixed up and the party is next month.  Sigh.  I was looking forward to a few quiet hours to myself. 

He walked home and I put out the leftovers on the table.  When he arrived home we had a little laugh and then he put on horrible Japanese TV, opened up his computer and then I barely saw him again.  I had my dinner, but when I asked him if he was going to come over and have some I was snapped at.  I heated and ate my meal, then offered to put some of the food on a plate for him, which he did accept. I washed up my dishes and then went to my computer.  At that point he went and made himself some ramen and ate my lovely leftovers meal.  I didn’t really understand.  If it wasn’t enough there was more food in the fridge.  

I had a pretty horrible evening with his inane crappy TV on.  I sewed my old green coat…an embellishment had fallen off a couple of years ago when I first got it and I just found it recently.  I sewed it back on and then checked the buttons to make sure they were okay.  

Around 10:30 I realized I was hungry and had lots of calories left for  a change.  I went into the kitchen and got creative.  I made chicken salad out of some of the chicken from Costco and half of an avocado.  That was really good. I put it on half a bagel and made tea too.  I even offered some of both tea and bagel to F, which he accepted.

At 11 I watched The Following.  It’s quite the show.  Afterwards I watched a Poirot episode where the killer gave themself away by saying the last letter of the alphabet was “zed”…so Poirot correctly surmised they were Canadian. I had just discussed the “zee vs. zed” thing with F a few days ago so thought it was rather funny.

And that’s about it.  I’m not sure what’s going to happen next.  F was talking about taking time off and going to the doctor, but I’m not sure if he will or not.  I have a few things that I need to do around here, and I’d like to get on that! Come back later and read more about my exciting adventures! Until tomorrow….
