Tuesday - Cold with a little snow

Today was an okay day really. At least that’s the way I’m remembering it. I went to bed a bit late, but managed to get up at a fairly normal time. I watched Criminal Minds - Red Cell in the morning and then decided to take a short nap. I slept for about 30 minutes and then did get up. Yay me. I showered and got on with my day.

I wrote up a post card to send. This one is going to Taiwan. I hope it arrives. Many of my cards are stuck in transit at the moment. People seem not to be checking their own mail or something. It’s rather annoying. I want to send more cards, but I can’t now.

I had a visitor a couple of times today. F came back to pick something up and then I’m not sure what the second visit was for. He gave me my mail from our mailbox though!

After a yummy lunch I did the dishes and then walked to my school. Although I might have been able to ride my bike, I really wasn’t sure and thought it might be safer not to. It probably was a good call. I made good time getting to my school and even saw a friendly beagle along the way.

At my school I dropped off my backpack, grabbed my snow shovel and did a bit of snow shovelling. I did the front steps in case my student came in that way, and I cleared off my parking space. It looked good, so I went in to thaw out!

I had a lot of time before my class so I changed my clothes and read some of the paper. I went out to check the snow situation a few minutes before the class was due to start and it was fine.

Went back into the school and the student called to say she couldn’t come. Sigh. We made a new appointment for Saturday though.

I finished reading the paper, had a cup of tea, and then called F. He came and picked me up. I opened the door to see how the weather was and he had just arrived, so that was a good thing!

We had a cheap and cheerful and cold dinner in New York, New York. That restaurant is always a bit too cold in winter and they always sit us near the window. Brr.

We got a few groceries at the store. Tomorrow night we’ll make a nabe and have that. We’re both looking forward to it I think. It won’t be much work as we just bought a store’s kit.

At home, F watched something mindless on the DVR and then I watched the new Criminal Minds - Red Cell on WOWOW. It was one of the least pleasant ones I’ve seen on that show, and since the show is all about serial killers, it’s saying a lot.

F went to bed early, and I might just get there a bit earlier than usual too. I’m a bit tired from all of the exercise I had today! Talk to you tomorrow night. Night!
