Tuesday - Clear and Sunny
Today was a quiet but good day. I got up when my alarm went off, watched the news on TV and then roused myself and got dressed. I had breakfast and a cup of tea then took a nap again. Sigh.
In the afternoon I had a hard time getting motivated. I did a few computer things, watched a bit of YouTube but didn’t really watch anything I should have. After lunch, I did watch Killing Eve, so there’s that.
I knew that F would be late tonight because of his schedule, but I also knew it would take me a while to cook dinner. I went downstairs around 6 and got started. I made a Japanese style “cream stew”. It took a while but turned out really well. K came in around 7 to find out when F would be back, but I didn’t really know at that point. He’d told me he was scheduled to finish at 7 pm, but…. He ended up calling me about 20 minutes later saying he was on the way back.
The stew was basically done as he arrived so I sent him off to change and started to set the table. He heated the rice for me and I dished out the stew. It was great! It got rave reviews from K and from F, so that was nice :-) We all had seconds. I think there is still enough to have for dinner another night. Yay.
I started doing the dishes and listening to a podcast when F came through to help. He washed the rest of the dishes and I dried them. He had wanted to take a bath at an onsen, but it was late and he decided not to go. I sort of wanted to go out for a coffee or something, but F didn’t want to, so I didn’t push it.
I made an attempt or two to start my Christmas Ornament tonight, but it hasn’t gone very well yet. I’ll have to see if I can do a little better later. The yarn I’m using is a bit slippery. It is cute though and I hope it’ll look good.
I have decided that I’m going to go out tomorrow though. I’ll catch a bus over to the Mikawa Mall and do a little Christmas shopping. Even if I don’t get to buy the presents tomorrow, I’ll get to have a good snoop around the place and see what’s available to me. I might even get to have lunch with myself :-)
I do have to get up on time and get myself out of the house fairly early…hope I can actually do that!
Anyway, that’s it for me then. Have a great day and I’ll most likely catch you later. Until tomorrow….
