Friday - Sunny and gorgeous
An odd day.
I woke up at 7:30 this morning, so halfway between early and my regular time! I got up, and then basically stayed up. I did watch the news from the bed and had a bit of a snooze during the non-English bits, but saw most of it.
I had a quiet morning, but it was okay. I got a Christmas card in the mail and brought that upstairs with my breakfast.
I watched a lot of telly today, I really wanted to clear some space on the DVR. Tomorrow night I’m going to record a couple of movies on WOWOW, plus need to catch my regular stuff, so I needed the space.
In the afternoon, I got a delivery of a box from Canada….yay! My presents from my sister. I also printed up 20 nengajo. I just have to write them now. Sigh.
F came back to the house after his work and we talked about dinner. I suggested bentos again and he liked that idea. I thought the idea was that we’d eat together and then he and I would go out to the onsen. Anyway, we picked up a box of goodies from the convenience store…my order from the other day…and then the bento. When we came back to the house things got a bit odd. F put the box in the pile with other boxes and asked if it was okay. I preferred it to be left at the foot of the stairs so that we wouldn’t forget to take it up. He got angry and said that it was dangerous, so he took it upstairs. I was annoyed since I had rather a lot of stuff to take upstairs and hadn’t planned to. Whatever. I realize that leaving things at the bottom of the stairs isn’t terribly safe, but considering he won’t put a safety rail on the stairs, think he doesn’t really need to lecture me about safety.
I was a bit upset but tried not to show it too much. I got out the glasses and some drink for our meal, F had gone the miso soup route again. (At least he hadn’t put onions in mine.) We ate and then as F seemed glued to the TV, I cleared the table and washed and dried the dishes. I half expected him to come and help but he didn’t. I went directly upstairs and waited for him. I didn’t watch any TV because I assumed we’d be leaving right away.
About an hour later, I came down and asked him if he was still going out. He said he would, but not to the onsen. Hmm.
I went back upstairs and didn’t see him until almost 11pm! I decided to watch stuff I wanted so enjoyed my time. I also wrote a couple of my nengajo. When he finally made an appearance around 11 pm I asked him if he still was going to go out. He said he would, but I said no because it was late! He’s had a really hard day at work with lots of snow shovelling, and his back is really protesting. He went to bed and I took a shower.
When I came back I wasn’t sure if he was still awake. He was, but really not doing well. I’m hoping that he will go and see a doctor tomorrow. I’m glad that this is a long weekend so he has a chance to rest up a bit.
However, tomorrow we’re going out for our fancy Christmas dinner, so I hope that he will be a bit mobile for that. I hate it when he’s in so much pain.
Anyway, I should go. Tomorrow morning I have a telephone meeting I want to attend and in the evening our party. If I have too much fun I might not blog tomorrow night, otherwise, I’ll probably be here. Come back later and see if I’m here! Until tomorrow...?
