Wednesday - Sunny and hot

An okay day really. I got up at a decent time today, made the bed, got dressed…Yay for me. No biggie. I decided to work on my column by watching a movie that I hadn’t seen in a while so I had to find it first. I missed it the first time, so 25 minutes later I finally found it. The movie was fun, Midnight Run.

I didn’t do a lot of housework today, but I did tackle my computer desk a bit. The mounds of paper were getting higher and higher so I took some of the junk out, sorted out paper for recycling and for shredding and threw some out.

F just showed up tonight which was okay, but he wanted to go out right away. We both changed our clothes and headed out. We were trying to find an open travel agent, but sadly they all seem to close at 6:00pm which is when we headed out. Maybe we can try again tomorrow. We also drove over to my school to check out the drop box. I got a message on Tuesday saying there’d been a delivery, but I couldn’t see the combination number on Tuesday night to open it. It was a pain in the butt today, even with daylight. F had to open it for me, which he did. Yay. It was the tuner for digital TV. I don’t use the TV, have had it hidden away in the cupboard for the last 6 years, so I think this new box will join it!

We came home and I cooked dinner. It wasn’t a difficult one tonight, just a stir-fry, but it was good. We had a pork and zucchini enhanced stir-fry with tofu on the side. It was good.

F did dishes then put on his crap TV, again with no asking if I wanted to watch anything. Tonight however, I mentioned that there was a movie I wanted to watch on at 9, so that was okay.

We ended up watching JFK. I had never seen it before. I was never much interested in the whole story, and I think I had gone off Kevin Costner at that point. In fact, tonight, I thought it was the miniseries about the Kennedy family, which is why I wanted to see it. However, it was a good movie. It was very talky in some places, and a bit dry in others, but the performances were great and there were so many good actors and actresses in the film. I enjoyed it. F said he enjoyed it too.

While F went and took his bath, I rounded up the garbage for F to take out in the morning. I also set up some cold brewed tea for myself for tomorrow. I’m loving that these days.

Today is so hot. Yesterday was cool and rainy, but today dawned hot and sunny. At midnight it was 28 degrees in our bedroom with the window open all the way. It’s only June. Ack. What is July going to be like? This Alberta Rose can’t stand the heat.

Anyway, that’s it for me for today. Have a good one! Later eh!
