Thursday - Sunny and warm

I tried not to stay up too late last night, but I did a bit! I got up this morning after my alarm went off. I went downstairs and then came back upstage and watched the news from the bed. I watched the 8 am news and also the 5 am news too. I snoozed a little, but I wasn’t too out of it.

I started some laundry and grabbed my breakfast. I had breakfast and then got more laundry done. I did a couple of loads done this morning so the was good. I have at least one more tomorrow to do. 

I had a quiet afternoon and morning by myself. I caught up on a few things but really just relaxed. I got my lunch eventually. I thought about what to do during lunch and decided to watch a movie that I had recorded a few weeks ago, Eighth Grade. It was great. I was surprised a bit at just how good it was. Very well done. I am a little annoyed that it is rated R in the US because I think it is probably the kind of film that parents and children of that age should watch together. But, what do I know?

I watched the news at 4 pm and a little after 5 pm I went downstairs and got a start on dinner. I started with dessert. I put my bread pudding together and got it baking in the oven.  

After that, I got into making the broccoli-shrimp stir-fry that I make. F came back in the middle. He brought some ice cream for dessert and some cream as well. I asked him to bring one and he brought both!

He went off upstairs and I got on with what I was doing. I finally got everything cooked and was putting it on the table. I had texted F when I was cooking to tell him that I wanted him to come down soon. After things were cooked, I called him and didn’t hear any answer. I set the table and called again. I didn’t hear anything. 

I went upstairs and F was on his bed in his pyjamas. I asked him if he was coming and then he just went off on me and refused to come down. I was rather upset as I’d been cooking for 2 hours and I made the recipe so that he didn’t have to have meat. Whatever. 

So I went downstairs again and just had dinner with K. She was surprised that F wasn’t coming, but she didn’t say much. She had some dessert with me too and it was darn good. 

I did the dishes, cleaned up the kitchen and listened to Persuasion again. It was good to get back to my book. When I finished I came back upstairs and came to my little part of the room and closed the doors after I moved the laundry. I didn’t want to be around him or hear him. He made noodles and slurped too much. I had to put on my headphones and turn up something on YouTube to ignore it.

I took a shower tonight and then came back into my part of the room. I didn’t talk to him at all. I hear a bunch of sighing and such…a guilty conscience perhaps? 

Anyway, I’m out of here. I don’t have much else to add. Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
