Thursday - Sunny but cool
My day started the way they have been starting lately. I woke up around 8, went downstairs and then tried to watch the news from the bed. I think I managed to watch it all today, but since half of it isn’t in English I fell asleep. When it finished I turned off the TV and napped a little. I had set an earlier alarm for myself and it helped a bit. I got up and took my laundry downstairs and put it in the wash. So exciting!
Today was quite a boring day really. I spent most of it upstairs. At lunchtime, I got the eggs out of the fridge and put the carton on the table to warm up as I was making scrambled eggs for dinner. I didn’t have any extra food to give to K for her lunch/second lunch.
I had a quiet afternoon. I watched an episode of The Walking Dead and one of the fairly new cast members died. Ack. I hate that, but I do understand it. It was particularly nasty too. I hope I don’t get nightmares from it.
Around 5:45 I went downstairs and took my dishes downstairs. I put them on the table and realized that my eggs were gone. I checked inside the fridge and there they were. Well, there some of them were…4 eggs were missing. So, not only did K put the eggs away, but she ate half of them? I was texting F to ask him to pick up more eggs on his way home when he phoned me to say he was coming back. I asked him to pick up some eggs and he said he would.
I did my dishes and then got started doing some prep for dinner. I had to thaw out the shrimp and get the other ingredients ready to go.
When F came back he brought me some eggs. He also told his mother that I was making eggs for dinner! She came into the kitchen a few minutes later and apologized to me. I probably should have told her to leave the eggs on the table alone, but it is so hard communicating with her.
I made scrambled eggs with shrimp, a recipe that I found on the net. It turned out well and got good reviews. It was hard to get F to come down for dinner though. We had the scrambled eggs with steamed broccoli and salad, plus rice.
I did the dishes afterwards, listened to a couple of chapters of Persuasion and then when I was done, went upstairs. F came up soon after.
We went to the big grocery store Mina and picked up a few things. I had a few things in mind, but I wasn’t able to get all of them. However, I got enough for dinner tomorrow. Woot! I only needed a few things, but that’s okay.
We came back to the house and came upstairs after we put away the food. We chatted on the bed for a while and it was fun. We haven’t done that for a while. This week we’ve both been a bit tired and introverted.
I decided to watch a movie and then remembered that Wolfwalkers was on Apple TV+ so watched that. It’s been nominated for an Oscar for Best Animated Feature I think and it was excellent. The drawings in the film were beautiful and the story was lovely.
So, that was that for today. Not too sure what I’ll get up to tomorrow. Hopefully, it’ll be fun. Come back later and find out. Until tomorrow….
