Friday - Hella hot

When I woke up this morning it was already 29 degrees in our room, and that was at 8 am. My sweet husband had set up our new cooling box on his side of the bed and it was trying valiantly to cool me down! I was quite touched at that. 

I got up, watched the news, napped a bit and then did a couple of loads of laundry. Done!  In the afternoon I watched some stuff off YouTube and grabbed my lunch at the right time. I had seen K a little in the morning but didn’t make eye contact with her in the afternoon. I wanted to make sure that she drank a lot. I wanted to suggest that she use the AC too, but never got the chance. I was definitely using it upstairs! 

I restarted my crochet project and with the washed yarn, it is going better. It is quite hard to work with three strands of yarn all at once, but It’s okay. I have to count a lot. 

I went downstairs around 5:30 to wash my dishes and keep an eye out for the delivery from the restaurant. I was rather pleased to find that I’d received a book in the mailbox. I got one from a friend in my woman’s group. I have to pay her for it now.  I must remember!

Our meal arrived fairly close to on time so I paid up and then set the table. Luckily I had heated up the kettle earlier so making soup was easy. I had also prepped the cutlery so no problems there.  We had tuna on rice bowls and the restaurant gave us some clear soup and a small chawanmushi each. After we ate, I offered K some ice cream and we had that too. I cleared the table and washed the spoons so that we could eat the ice cream!  Oh, and the best part was that K turned on the air conditioner in the living room while we ate! A big surprise, but a nice one.

After our meal, I did up the few dishes and washed the recycling stuff too.  I went upstairs afterwards after saying bye to K.  

While I was upstairs I watched Labyrinth off the DVR. I have the DVD somewhere, but it was on my cable channel recently and I haven’t seen it in ages. I still love the movie and know most of the songs. 

I had a fairly quiet evening. I texted a bit with F and he’s had a good time at his party. I shall go to bed in a minute or two, I’m yawning away rather fiercely.

I’m not sure what we’ll get up to tomorrow. I hope that we’re able to stay cool, however. Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
