Thursday - Looked warmish, didn’t go out

This morning I woke up early to use the washroom, then came back and went back to sleep. Unfortunately, F had left the room before his alarm went off and forgot to turn it off. He came back in a couple of minutes later and did apologize. I really didn’t think he did it on purpose.

I had a quiet day today. I watched a movie early on called Madame and liked it, but didn’t love it. I watched some stuff off the DVR, including finally an episode of The Walking Dead. It was a good one today. I also finished my second mask this afternoon. I considered starting another one but will leave it for the weekend.
Both masks. Pattern from Sew Much More.  The plain purple one was made first, the floral one second. Both come from the same tenugui(cotton towel). The material is quite thin so I'm not sure if they are very effective, but they are fairly comfortable. 



I went downstairs near 6 pm to wash my dishes. I was half expecting to hear from F tonight as things were better last night. I didn’t. I wasn’t cooking tonight so I went back upstairs.

When F did come back, he tried to go to bed right away, but I reminded him that he was in charge of dinner for himself and his mother. He was quite rude about it, said he wouldn’t eat. I really didn’t care if he did or not, but he should cook for his mother.

He dragged himself downstairs and apparently did cook for the two of them. I wasn’t invited, which was fine.

When he came back upstairs, I went down and made my dinner. I remembered that I’d bought potatoes at Costco on the weekend, so I baked a couple of smallish ones in the microwave. I also made some tuna salad and combined the two. I put a bit of cheese on the potatoes too, once they were cooked. My dinner was amazing. No fuss, and really delicious. Best of all, I was alone to eat and read a bit!  K popped in to see why the kitchen light was on but wished me good night after I told her what I was eating. Oh, and I finished up the raspberries too. They were great.

F has been all over the place emotion wise tonight. One minute he’s friendly and nice, the next minute back to being a jerk. I tried to show him my new mask and he said it was good because it covered my face…I’m not sure how he meant that….

I did a bit of crochet tonight too while I watched some YouTube. 

So that’s about it for me for tonight. He has taken tomorrow off work and suggested a place for lunch so I’ll go out with him and probably his mother too. I’m hoping for a movie in the afternoon, but I’m not sure if he’s ready for that. Can’t spoil me after all.


Come back later if you like and hear about what goes on. Until tomorrow….

Those masks are really nice! Can't believe you sewed them by hand. I LOVE the colors. You have a good eye for color.

We have a bag full of masks that we wear out of the house and the others I make I just give away. I'm making a dent in my fabric stash--which of course means that I get to buy NEW fabric!

Stay safe! Wear your mask! Lucky you to live in Japan where most people will follow the rules. (Unless it comes to men peeing and spitting in the streets. UGH!)

LOL!

Have a great weekend, Helen!

Thanks so much! I don't have a sewing machine, so I couldn't sew them any other way! I did buy more fabric (just a little) yesterday, so I might make a couple more, I'm not sure really. We can finally buy the disposable ones in the shops again, but these will likely be cooler in the summer since they are breathable.

Yes, Japanese people mostly follow the rules, but there are still a few people who don't! My DH is pretty good, but sometimes forgets! I try and keep a couple of clean masks in my purse for when I'm out, I'm thinking to make a few more so I'll always have something I can throw on at the last minute.

Thank you for visiting and commenting!
