Monday - Warmer in the daytime, cold and windy at night.

I slept in today for the first time in a few days. I was rather surprised, but it was lovely. I got up and watched a bit of TV, nothing too exciting I think.

I had a bit of a veggie day. I sorted out F’s presents, except I seem to have misplaced one of his presents. Grr. I also bought the wrong kind of batteries for something I’m giving him. Sigh.

In the afternoon I read on Facebook and then confirmed elsewhere that Kim Jong Il from North Korea had died over the weekend. I’m not happy, but let’s just say I’m not broken up about it either. I just hope that North Korea doesn’t decide to invade their neighbours or anything.

I printed some Christmas cards and some nengajo too this afternoon and evening, then I wrote some of them too. Some of the designs in my book are amazing. I love dragons and try very hard to match the person and the picture!

I cooked dinner tonight. We had ginger pork, couscous, lettuce and broccoli, and it was all quite nice. F did the dishes and then we headed over to my school to set the heater for tomorrow. The parking space at my school hadn’t snowed over which is great…unless of course it snows overnight.

We bought a few groceries and then came home. F took his bath early so I watched CSI: Miami for the first time in ages. Time hasn’t improved it! I made a pot of tea and cut some cake for us afterwards and while I was doing that, F changed the channel on me. I protested rather vigorously as I’d told him in the car that I’d be watching a British detective show at 11:00. Men. I got a bit of the attitude, “Oh, were you going to watch something?” Yes…that’s why I was making tea bozo!

Anyway, he proceeded to fall asleep on the couch, so I watched my show and was suitably happy. He slept on, so I turned off the TV and made a video from Santa for him. Hee hee…or should I say, Ho Ho Ho?

Tomorrow I have an evening class, but as I may have to walk over to the school and shovel snow, I might leave early. I’m not sure yet. It really depends on the weather tomorrow. Wish me luck (and no more snow!) Night!
