Wednesday - Clear and cool

I had a hard time getting up this morning. The bed was nice and warm and the room wasn’t, so I just wanted to stay where I was. I did get up but found myself back in bed while I watched the news!

I got dressed and had some breakfast, did a couple of loads of laundry too. It never seems to stop and I’m only doing my own clothes!

I did bump into K today, a couple of times really. She even came into the kitchen when I was getting ready for lunch, which I didn’t share with her. I had the leftovers from last night. I thought she’d have some of them earlier, but she didn’t. 

F called to say that he’d was on his way, but I was already in the kitchen getting ready. I prepared half of the butternut squash that I had bought on the weekend. It took a while as I wasn’t sure what I was doing exactly, but turned out okay. 

When F arrived I was quite disappointed. He did one of his “Oh, I can’t eat” things again. He sat on the stairs for a while, then was on the tatami in a spare room. Finally, when it was mealtime, I found him in bed. As I’d gone to all the trouble of making nice food, I was rather perturbed with him. When he was on his way to the house, he sounded fine and had even asked if we could go out tonight. 

K and I ate our meal. It was good. The first lot of the butternut squash was about 3 minutes from perfection, the second lot that finished after we ate was about 3 minutes past perfection. It was slightly charred, but tasted good anyway!

Of course, I once again was treated to doing all the dishes alone. I used my iPhone and played some music to keep me company, so it wasn’t too bad. It was annoying.

I get upstairs and F doesn’t want to go out. He’s in bed with his computer and his phone.  I went to my corner to work on my column a bit. I did but at 10 I went for a shower.

When I came back all, F was getting ready to go out to a drugstore. He asked me which ones were open and I told him. He asked if I wanted to go too, but I didn’t. If he’d caught me before my shower, maybe, but I wanted to watch New Amsterdam anyway.  Then, he was all but ready to leave and he changed his mind. 

That’s the kind of day that I had today. It is now two days since I went outside and my iPhone still doesn’t seem to get wifi. I’ve no idea why. 

F said he’d be late at work tomorrow night and because we didn’t go out, there is nothing for K’s dinner. Mine either to be honest, but I’m quite annoyed with F over this kind of thing. I wish I knew what is going on with him. He goes to the various doctors and all they seem to do is give him more medicines. 

Come back later if you like and find out how my Halloween went.  Was it a Trick or a Treat? Until tomorrow….
