Tuesday - Sunny and warm

A good day.

F was up quite early this morning, he went to the doctor as his neck was bothering him again. I got up a bit late for my usual day, but really not terribly late. I made the bed, had breakfast and tea and watched some of my telly.

F came back a bit after 12 I think.  We went to the store to get his mother a bento for lunch and then we went out.  

We went to karaoke in the big place downtown. They have a special there where you can have lunch and free time karaoke and drink bar, so we took advantage of that. I had a pasta dish that was pretty decent, F had a Japanese rice dish that he said was okay, but probably didn’t meet his standards.  We sang a lot, drank a lot of soft drinks and generally had a good time. I did a couple of Aretha Franklin songs, a bit of Prince, some Elle King and some of my usual stuff.  F sang his usual Carpenters/Beatles songs and a few Japanese ones too.  

We stayed quite a bit later than I thought we would but it was quite nice.  Around 6 we checked out and went over to the grocery store for a bento for K’s dinner.  We’d had a last minute snack at the karaoke box, so weren’t hungry.  

We came back to the house and F gave his mother the bento.  I made some guacamole with two of the ripe avocados and put it in the fridge to meld.  I came upstairs and later so did F.  

We were okay for a while and then we had the guacamole, tortilla chips and salsa as well.  The guac was really good today. For the first time in ages, both avocados were really good and really ripe. Hurray. There weren’t any leftovers.

I watched a bit of telly and then came over to my computer. F snoozed a bit before finally going to sleep.  

It’s a little sad in a way.  F is back to work tomorrow. I think he’s had a good weekend, but as I told him, next weekend is a long weekend too.  I’m also sad as I left for Canada last year on this day. I don’t have any plans to go back as of yet this year. Sigh. I really would like to go to Canada. Maybe if I win the lottery?!

Not sure what I’ll get up to tomorrow. Come back and see. Until tomorrow….
