Friday - Sunny and warm!
I woke up late this morning and then played toilet tag with K downstairs. I did notice a rather bad smell in the air…She’d fashioned her own toaster with a wire rack and a burner…I have no idea why she just can’t use the toaster oven like a normal person!
I went back upstairs and watched the news, then ended up taking a little nap. I made the executive decision not to do laundry so I could enjoy my morning more! I did a bit of work on the blanket I'm making.
The day passed quite quickly. Around lunch time I went downstairs and got my lunch ready. Surprisingly, K was up, so I offered her the plate that I’d prepared for her a couple of days ago, she took it. I was just on my way upstairs when she asked me to fill up her kerosene tank. I didn’t really mind, it’s just that I was literally on the stairs with my lunch when she asked. Obviously I had to do it, so I took my food back to the kitchen and got her some fuel.
I went back upstairs and watched The Good Wife and then the news. I also watched a bit of Spotlight, what a good film that is. I did some of my online stuff and then went downstairs to get started on dinner. F called as I was going down the stairs and said he was on his way back.
I got busy. I washed my dishes from the day then peeled and cut up some carrots to prepare them for steaming. I also prepped some radishes, some eringi (mushrooms) for frying and got the meat ready to go in the toaster oven. I was just waiting for F to get back before I started cooking.
F came in and didn’t want to talk to me. I told him that I had a couple of things I needed to talk to him about and he wouldn’t talk. He went upstairs. I got a couple more things ready and then went upstairs to see what was up. I asked if I could talk to him and he said no! I did it anyway. I told him about his mother’s toaster and also that I wanted to visit a friend this weekend. He said that he was feeling bad and didn’t want to come downstairs but was hungry. I left him to his own devices.
K and I had a really nice meal. We had steamed carrots, sautéed eringi with a buttery soy sauce dressing, teriyaki chicken, salad, radishes and K had tomatoes and rice too. I’d even made up some vinegar drink for us, since someone had drunk most of the mugi-cha during the day. Sigh.
Afterwards I did the dishes. There weren’t quite as many as usual, so it didn’t take so long. Yay for that.
I went upstairs. F came downstairs after a bit and got himself some of my food. He did say he liked it, not sure why he couldn’t come for dinner. I took a shower which I couldn’t get hot for some reason.
I came back upstairs after getting my water bottles filled. F was in the kitchen again making himself noodles. I think I should stop making nice food and just let him eat ramen. He so often eats the stuff after my nice dinners. I asked if I could get into the sink since he was content to just let me stand in the kitchen waiting and he was just being in the way. He swished some water in a pot of his and then stormed out with his ramen.
I came back upstairs and he was eating and drinking again. He offered me some umeshu, but I didn’t want any. I don’t drink much, I don’t know why he keeps trying to get me to drink. I find it really annoying.
He’s now sleeping which is a good thing. If he is sick then I want him to get better. He had to do some physical work today at the office, so he’s tired from that. I’m hoping that he just needs some sleep.
Anyway, come back later if you like and hear all about my Saturday. Until tomorrow….
