Wednesday - Hot and sunny

I woke up this morning when my alarm went off and got up and made the trek downstairs. I came back to the bedroom, watched the news from my bed and then decided to put my head down for 15 minutes. After 15, I decided on ten more minutes. I woke up about an hour later. I’d been having a really odd dream about a city that I’ve dreamt before. I was trying to find somewhere I think, but I never did. 

I got up and dressed quickly, grabbed my breakfast and then watched the episode of FBI from the weekend. It was a preview of another new show and one of the actors was Canadian, from my city! He used to be in Heartland so that was really cool. 

After FBI was over, I watched the rest of the movie I started yesterday. It was as much fun as ever. I like any movie with Oliver Platt and don’t get me started on Kurt Russell. He’s just too cool! Executive Decision was the film, a lot of fun.

In the afternoon I got really hot in the room so I turned on the AC. It was well above 30 degrees in here. I also tried on a few clothes that I found in a drawer that I don’t get into often. Most of the stuff fitted me. Woot!

I watched the news around 4 pm and then somewhere around 5:20 or so went downstairs to do my dishes and get a handle on dinner. That was the original plan but I ended up starting dinner then doing dishes. It’s all good. 

I made a cold pea salad (from Simply Recipes—divine!) and then I made up some couscous and pilaf. There wasn’t a lot of the pilaf so I thought I’d let F and K have it and I’d have the couscous and then have the extra for lunch tomorrow. 

F had told me he’d be late, so when I found a message on my phone knew that he must have finished a bit early. I called him back and he was on his way back. 

I started cooking some lemon pepper chicken and boiling some water. I decided to also have miso soup with our dinner. 

F came back and I told him dinner would be soon. He went upstairs to change and relax a bit. I got the table set and then we ate fairly soon after that. Dinner didn’t get reviews at all, but almost everything vanished! I let F and K have some of my couscous and they left me 2 tablespoons for my lunch tomorrow, so I just ate it! The pea salad that I thought I’d have for lunch also disappeared. It was amazing though. There was one piece of chicken left afterwards and that was it!

I washed and dried all the dishes. Luckily there weren’t all that many, but it still took a while. I came up to the bedroom before F tonight and basically stripped off my wet clothes and put on my pyjamas. 

Around 10:30 I did up the garbage for the house and then took a shower. F took one a bit later too. He’s not doing well tonight. His stomach is acting up and his back is too. Sigh. 

I watched Grey’s Anatomy and it was okay tonight. I’m not sure what’s going on with that show. It was doing great for a while, but it is getting a bit soapy again. Maybe the season is coming to an end?

Well, that’s about it for me. It’s late and with it being so hot, I’m quite tired. Come back later if you like and hear all about my Thursday. Until tomorrow….
