Tuesday - Warm and Sunny

I got up this morning around 8, went downstairs, came back and watched the news and then watched a bit of TV. I had a pretty good morning and didn’t do my falling asleep thing. Yay for that. With it being cooler I think I slept better. 

I saw K when I went downstairs to get my breakfast and said hello.  She had a drink so that was good. 

I checked out a couple of things for dinner tonight and made sure I could figure them out. I changed my plans slightly, but that was a good thing!

I went upstairs and watched Spider-man, the first one with Tobey Maguire. It was good and I enjoyed seeing it all the way through. I had my lunch and then watched an episode of Downton Abbey. I’m down to the last one now. I hope I can watch it this week, although, I might keep it a while. 

I went downstairs to start dinner after the 4 pm news finished. I washed some dishes and then started getting things ready to go. F called to say he was on his way back, so I kicked things into a higher gear. I cooked one of the dishes early, just so that I didn’t have to wait for it. I got the chicken coated and I cooked some rice. When F arrived, I told him dinner would be in about 20 minutes and I think I was pretty darn close to that. I baked the chicken and made some garlic rice. I set the table and F even carried a dish out for me. Woot. Dinner was good, except I had to ask if it was okay because no-one said anything!. It was pretty damn good in my humble opinion!

F surprised me by helping wash the dishes. It was nice. I had done a little pre-washing before dinner so that there weren’t a lot of things.  He finished and then I finished up the few things he forgot. I also set up a couple more jugs of tea for tomorrow. 

I went upstairs and F was on the bed as usual. Apparently, he wasn’t feeling well now. Sigh. Since I didn’t need to go out tonight I let him know it was okay to relax. I had a mostly quiet evening. I did cut out a mask front. I want to put a gauze lining in it so I’ll have to iron the gauze tomorrow. It has become rather wrinkly in the pile of cloth I have. This is a new pattern for me, so I’m not using my “good” material until I know if it will work or not!

I noticed tonight that my phone’s corner is coming up again. The last time that happened it meant that the battery was in trouble and I got a new battery. I’m not sure that I’ll be able to do that again. I told F and he didn’t seem to be very happy about it. I’m not happy about it either. It is quite an old phone now and I can’t really complain about the phone. It has served me well. 

Anyway, tomorrow F is off to work again. He has to do some driving so he’ll be happy. I will be cooking dinner again. It should be a salmon stirfry and I’ll have to see what I can put with it. Come back later if you like and find out more about my day. Until tomorrow….
