Friday - Snowy and cold

I got up at my proper time today, although I was really tired for ages. I half planned to take a nap all day, but never did.  K mostly kept to herself, except she did let me know when I got some mail this morning.

In the afternoon the delivery guy came by for my package. Luckily he called out in the genkan because I didn’t hear the door, and I had the TV off so should have heard the doorbell. I dealt with him and off he went. 

I had my lunch just after that and it was good. I had quite a bit of cheese and some of the salad sticks. I noticed that K had eaten her bento that was supposed to be her dinner. Sigh. 

I went out after lunch to do a bit of snow shovelling. The snow was light, but it was cold and windy so it wasn’t that pleasant to be out. I cleared out the car area quickly and also did the steps of the house too.

F called me and said he was coming back to change. He didn’t feel well and was talking about not going to his party tonight. Oh dear!  When he arrived, he talked to his mother and she would like a bento or something for her dinner. F was still thinking if he should go tonight or not!  I insisted that he go, or if he didn’t, he had to go to bed. It’s just that he never goes out with friends and I know he enjoys going out with these guys he knew from work. 

We made a quick run to the grocery store for a bento for his mother. I got a small packet of chicken for me and then we came back. F called his taxi to go to the party, and I got things ready on the living room table for our dinner.  I put out the last of the veggie sticks too, plus a container with some dressing in it for dipping.  

First thing K does is dip a piece of my chicken in the dressing. Then, when F told her off, she took it out and held it over her glass of tea. Sigh.  It was sort of funny, in a painful way though. F left when his taxi arrived and we continued eating. K stopped at half of her new bento, but ate half of my chicken and most of the veggie sticks. She double dips most of the time, so I stopped dipping at all.  She’s a character. I didn’t really grudge her the chicken, just thought it was funny she announced she was finished eating, then helped herself to more food.

I did the few dishes when I was done and came upstairs. I watched a bit of telly tonight, finished another Christmas bauble and started another one. I was watching Castle when K called me downstairs around 9:30. She was going on and on about something, but I had no idea what. I think she wanted me to call F and get him to come home. It was 9:30 and F is a grown man!  Isn’t that up to him?  I think so!

I didn’t call him.  I was a tad surprised when I hadn’t heard from him at all by 11pm. I took a shower and sent him a text. After the shower I did get one back. He was waiting for a taxi. With the bad weather and the time of year, taxis are hard to find. 

F got back around 1 I think. I had spent my time well. I made a packing list for the box I need to sent to my sister. I’m not sure when I’ll get it sent, but it is nearly ready to go. 

F was quite happy when he came back. He is glad that he went, but I’m not sure he will be in the morning. I did get him to drink something though. 


And that’s about it for me. I’m tired and it’s late.  No idea what we’ll get up to tomorrow. Come back later and find out. Until tomorrow….
