Rainy and horrible weather all day.
One of my earliest memories this morning was having a shower in bed. I'd left the window open last night and this morning it was pouring. A little rain came in the window, so I got up and closed it a bit.
When I got up I found that my husband was up and working. He'd done quite a bit of cleaning around the apartment. Unfortunately, he didn't clean up the messes that he makes on a daily basis first, but he did more than I did today! I suggested going to the laundromat and washing our bedding and the blankets and quilt covers that we aren't using in this season. So, we did that. We had lunch first though at a restaurant near the laundromat.
Now, doing laundry (or anything) with my husband is an adventure. Today he bought a card to use in the washing machines. He tried to use it in one machine and couldn't get it to work. So, I went and got change and used the coins which worked. We were using two machines. He finally got his to work. After everything was washed, we put one load in a dryer. I saw there was another dryer a few feet away that was available, so I was going to suggest that we take it, but another lady beat us to it. Meanwhile, F was still playing around with his laundry card. He put it in the machine and started punching numbers. I suggested starting with 30 minutes on the timer. Meanwhile, as I was saying that, the timer numbers started going higher. My dear hubby was trying to cancel the extra time, by maxing it out. When he'd gotten the timer up to 72 minutes he ran out of money on the card! I hadn't planned to stay that long there....oh dear. I set my timer on my cell phone for 36 minutes, we decided we'd check it out then and if everything was dry, swap loads. Not much else we could do. I was having a good time. I brought Lean Mean Thirteen by Janet Evanovich with me, so I was laughing my head off at Stephanie Plum's misadventures. The 36 minute load of laundry was dry, so we swapped it out for the other one, and did some folding. When our dryer time was nearly up, the place was getting crowded. I think a lot of women washed their clothes at home and brought them to the laundromat to dry. Our bell beeped and we checked our laundry. Some of it needed a little longer, to the dismay of the waiting hordes!
After we folded and bagged our laundry, we came home and made the bed. Then, we didn't have a lot to do. Hubby suggested karaoke. I'm always happy to oblige!
We were in the convenience store getting munchies when I said that I was hungry. Hubby realized he was too, so we went for dinner. We found a new place and it was quite good. The bad thing for me was the soup was cream of corn-bleck, but other than that it was quite good. Then, we went to karaoke.
We got free time and stayed there for a long time. It was after 10 when we left. F told me that we'd sung more than 40 songs! It was fun. I did a few for the first time, and even did an Adam Lambert/Michael Jackson song, Black or White.
We came home afterwards, and vegged for a while. We took a nap together and I woke up and got on my computer. Hubby is still napping, but now he's on the couch. He mumbled something at me a few minutes ago, but I have no idea what he was talking about!
Tomorrow, I'm not sure what's on the agenda. We may see an old friend who's in town with her husband and baby or we may do something crazy. Guess you'll just have to tune in tomorrow and find out! Night night.
