Wednesday - Sunny and warm


I woke up this morning and got up too. I watched the news from my bed and then for good measure, watched the one that I had recorded early on. 


I got up and got on with my day. I grabbed breakfast and then got stuck into my column. I decided to rewatch one of the films that I was writing about. That took care of most of my afternoon! I loved the movie the first time I watched it, I loved it this time too!


I had lunch and gave K some of the leftovers from yesterday. She took them and then I went upstairs and ate my lunch.


I watched the news at 4 pm and relaxed for a while until I heard from F. He called a bit after 5 to say that he was going to be late today, he hoped he’d be done around 6 but wasn’t sure.  He called me around 6:30 to say he was on his way but didn’t make it back until a little after 7 pm.


Tonight I made a broccoli and shrimp stir-fry. I thought it was really good. It took a bit of prep, but I got it done.  We ate a bit late, but dinner was quite good I think.


After I did the dishes and the cleanup, I went upstairs and F was playing on his phone. He didn’t want to go out right away, so I relaxed for a while. Yay. 


Finally, we went out. We stopped at a drugstore first for a few house supplies. I needed new washing-up liquid and that kind of thing. After the drugstore, we headed over to MaxValu and I got a few things to cook for the next couple of nights. I’m a bit afraid in a way that I don’t know what I’m going to make. I’ll have to plan things out a bit more tomorrow. 


We came back to the house and F put most of the groceries away. I put some of them in their real places afterwards! I did up the kitchen garbage and then went upstairs to do up the garbage in the bedroom. I sorted mine, F sorted his and took the bag downstairs. Yay.


I watched Shameless tonight which was the last episode in the 10th season, the one where Ian and Mikey get married. It was a really good episode. Somehow I thought this was the last season, but I guess there is one more. 


And that’s about it for me. I had a fairly quiet day, but it was productive, so that was good. 


Come back later if you like and hear all about my Thursday. Until tomorrow….

Hi Helen. Just wondering who is reading the audiobook of Persuasion you are enjoying? Sounds like fun!

Hi Anne! Thanks for visiting and commenting. For some reason, my comment notifications are going into my junk mailbox, so I have to fish them out!

I'm listening to Persuasion on LibriVox (app name) and the reader is Karen Savage. I quite like her. She is one of the two more highly praised readers of Persuasion.

I'm a big Jane Austen fan, and Persuasion is my favourite of her novels. :-)
