Tuesday - Hot and muggy
I heard F get up this morning and I think I rolled over in a huff when he turned on the light but was back asleep before I knew I was awake.
I got up with my alarm, had a quick trip downstairs, watched the news and caught up with the internet on my phone. I didn’t want to get busy with anything today, so I put off doing laundry again. Sigh. I must do it tomorrow. F called to say that he was thinking of getting in bentos for dinner tonight. I asked him not to as I was planning to make dinner tonight and I’d already bought the ingredients! I suggested doing it tomorrow night instead and luckily he agreed.
I had a quiet morning, quiet but nice. I had my breakfast and then I started a movie but stopped it. I took a little nap and then just as I was getting up from it to grab lunch, F called to say he was finished work for the day and was coming back. What! Does this man never work? He had a headache, so I imagine it wasn’t fun to be at work when not feeling good, but still.
He came back while I was still eating lunch. I half expected him to offer to take me out somewhere but he didn’t. He said he’d get a massage but didn’t. He ended up just sitting on his bed watching YouTube while I watched the rest of Three Days of the Condor. Robert Redford was quite yummy in those days.
I watched the news at 4 pm and then went downstairs around 5:30 to start dinner. I was making tacos tonight. I had sort of a plan…I was making them but would give K taco rice since I wasn’t sure she’d handle tortillas. Everything went according to plan. I even started some of my yummy new tea, one called Mojito. I think it is a green tea/mint tea blend. Anyway, I liked it a lot. I yelled for F to come and make his mother’s rice, but he didn’t hear, so I went up to get him and the tortilla chips.
We had a nice meal tonight. The taco rice went over well, it was much nicer I think than the Costco retort packs I usually use. F and I had a couple of tortillas each. I told him in the kitchen that if he didn’t want to put a lot (or any) meat on them it would be fine. We had some tortilla chips on the side with some of the salsa…everyone seemed happy.
I however was less than happy when I headed for the kitchen and F announced that he was taking his mother to the onsen just then. What? I grumbled about doing the dishes again. To do him credit, he did start to wash them but did his usual throw all the dishes in the basin at once thing and I told him to get ready to go! I took his stuff out and did it properly!
By the time I finished, I had listened to quite a few podcasts bits and was soaked. I wasn’t just wet from the dishes, but from sweat. It was rather disgusting actually! I went upstairs and changed my clothes…hung the old ones up to dry.
When F came back to the house, I kind of twisted his arm to take me out. I needed to get out darn it! We went over to Gusto and both of us had kaki-gori and the drink bar. It was nice. We both vegged out on our phones a bit, but I didn’t mind too much tonight.
We drove back to the house via a convenience store to get something for me…a bottle of sports drink. All the sweating today made me worry about tomorrow. I do get a little run down, so I’ll have a touch of the drink tomorrow.
I took a shower when we got in and then came upstairs to blog and hopefully get to bed before 3 am. Not sure if I’ll make it.
I did just read about a horrible bus accident at the Columbia Icefields. It was one of the buses that tourists take out onto the glacier. F and I went on one of the buses on our honeymoon, so it was sad to read about it.
And that was my day. I’m not sure what I’m doing tomorrow. I hope I’m not cooking dinner as we didn’t buy anything! I could whip up something from the cupboard maybe, but I know that F wouldn’t like it much!! Bah ha ha!
Come back later if you like and hear all about my Wednesday. Until tomorrow….
