Saturday - Cold and snowy

Today was a bit of a wasted day, to be honest. I got up around 11 and checked my computer things. I got dressed somewhere around there too. F got up and fed himself and his mother, I think he made bread too. Then, he came back upstairs and went back to bed!

I made myself a bit of lunch in the afternoon. I played around on my computer and even read a bit of a book, I think I finished it. I went downstairs to wash my dishes and while I was doing that, my lovely cereal bowl slipped out of my hand and fell into the drain. It made a sickening sound and when I picked it back up, I saw that it now has two huge cracks in it. It is still in one piece, but I am so upset.  It’s my replacement bowl for the first one I got, and the second item by the maker to get cracked this year. I have decided that I’m not going to replace it. I’m not meant to have nice things.  I originally got my bowl to encourage myself to have breakfasts. I was famous for skipping breakfast and lunch, but the bowl helped me enjoy breakfast. I generally eat breakfast now, so it has served its purpose. 

I came upstairs and told F what happened. He bought me the bowls, I thought it was only fair to tell him I’d done it.  Surprisingly, things got a lot nicer between us after that. 

Around 6:30 or so we went out to run errands. F wanted to buy kerosene for the house so I suggested going to Gusto since it is in the area. He also wanted to go to the grocery store.  We went to eat first, had an okay time. I had chicken and shared some French fries with F. He had mackerel in miso sauce, he said it was good. We skipped the drink bar tonight.

We picked up some gas and some kerosene, then did a quick run through the grocery store. We were going to come back here but decided to have a drink at Komeda Coffee first. I had their dessert set, F just had some coffee.  It was a nice break from the house. 

We came back to the house and I watched a little bit of telly.  F sat on the bed in his coat for the longest time, even after I’d changed into my PJs. Not sure what that was about.

Anyway, things are winding down now. I don’t have any idea what will happen tomorrow. I hope that we do more than just stay in since that’s what I do all through the week. Sigh.

Come back later if you dare and see what happens. Until tomorrow….
