Monday - Warm and sunny, mostly
I didn’t hear F leave this morning and was rather surprised when my alarm went off. I was in full sleep mode and it took a while before I woke up properly.
I watched the news and then dragged myself up and around. I did a load of laundry and hung it up, then settled in to watch Fleabag again. I liked it a lot more this time. It was the first season, a bit difficult to watch at times.
I made up the last pizza for my lunch today. K was bopping around so I put a couple of pieces on a plate for her, but she was in her room when I looked for her. I just left it for her in the kitchen. She didn’t eat it.
I had a quiet afternoon and didn’t do any of the things I had thought about doing. F texted to say that he was taking Friday off this week in lieu of last Sunday (or Monday?). Oh, and he was also taking off an extra day in September so between national holidays and personal holidays he’ll have more than a week off! How come when I want to go somewhere with him like Canada, he can’t do that? Hmm.
F called me after 5:30 tonight to say he was on his way, so I went downstairs and started on dinner. I got one dish prepared quickly, then worked on another fast one. I was doing that when F arrived. He seemed okay, just tired. He went upstairs and I went on with my cooking. Finally, I got everything ready to just cook. I had the chicken in the pan, I had the eggplant and mushroom stir-fry going, the pilaf was in the microwave…Yay me. I took a moment when things were nearly done to text F and ask him to come down. 2 minutes later I found his text back to me. He had a stomach ache again and couldn’t eat. I was quite upset about that. I’d really outdone myself and dinner was nice.
Oh well, at least K and I enjoyed it. I had a couple of pieces of chicken in the honey-garlic sauce, K had a lot of the cucumber dish and quite a bit of eggplant and pilaf too, so that was good!
As usual, I got to do all the dishes, but I just put on a couple of podcasts and got through it all. I decided that K probably couldn’t hear my iPhone’s speaker in the living room, so just listened to Canadian news and then a British Movie podcast.
I came upstairs when I was done and didn’t really talk to F for a while. There didn’t seem a point. I stripped and made myself comfortable in a house dress. Of course, F went downstairs later and made himself some noodles and had far too many dadacha-mame. One of the relatives brought over a ton of them.
That’s really about it. Both of us took showers tonight. I didn’t watch any TV as there wasn’t much on.
Not sure what I’ll get up to tomorrow. I hope that I have a good day. Come back later and find out. Until tomorrow….
