Tuesday - Hot and sunny but muggy


I woke up this morning around 8:30 and I got up a bit later I think. F didn’t go to work today, so I didn’t have the early wake-up call from him. However, I did have to go to work!


I got up, watched the news from early on. F asked if he could take me out for lunch but I turned him down again. I keep trying to tell him that I won’t go out for lunch before my classes. We have a history of him taking me out for lunch and me not getting a good meal out of it and I’d rather not have that happen today. He went downstairs and cooked for his mother and when they were finished, I went downstairs and got my lunch. 


I brought it back up and I also turned on the AC in the room. It was getting really warm up here and I didn’t want to start sweating before I got dressed. After I ate lunch, I took my plate downstairs and washed it, plus I prepared my thermos of water. When I came back upstairs, F had turned off the AC and he was wrapped in a quilt in bed. What? It wasn’t that cold. I guess he was getting a draft, but he could have changed the angle of the wind from the machine. I turned it back on and tried to explain that I really needed not to be sweaty when I got dressed. 


We ended up having words over something, I can’t quite remember and once again, F was angry with me. Honestly, he knows that I have to go to work today and I begged him NOT to take today off, but he did. It’s the local O-Bon today, but he was lying in or on the bed for most of the morning. 


I got dressed and went downstairs. I took all my stuff down and put my shoes on and waited for a few minutes. I just left when the taxi came. 


Again, I can’t talk about work but it went fairly well today. I’d been stressing about it, but it was fine.


I got back to the house around 5 pm but K and F were out. I came upstairs, changed my clothes, finished up a bit of paperwork and then watched the news. F and his mother came back a few minutes later. 


F was still mad at me, but after a little while he cheered up a bit. We talked about dinner and I reminded F that he had thought about ordering dinner in. We decided to do that and I picked something and F decided to have that for all of us. We picked a couple of side dishes too and he called in the order. Unfortunately, the place was busy and said that they wouldn’t be able to send it to us until 7:30. I didn’t mind, but F was a little annoyed. 


We hung out up here and relaxed a bit. Finally, the food came and we went downstairs and ate. F “set” the table and then I put all the other stuff out that he’d forgotten! The food was really good.  I had decided that I wasn’t going to do the dishes. Heck, I worked today, why would I. F took stuff to the kitchen and started washing them, so I did help clear the table and I dried some of them. 


After dinner, I reminded F that we were supposed to go out. I wanted to go and have dessert, so we went to Komeda’s Coffee and had kaki-gori. It was lovely to sit in a cool place and eat something cold and sweet. 


We bought some groceries and then came back to the house. We put them away and then came upstairs. I had missed the start of my show tonight so I didn’t watch it. I’ll try and catch it tomorrow. 


I did watch something off my Apple TV and then switched to YouTube. And from that to now, I’ve been blogging away and enjoying the cool since F said that we could use the AC again. He changed the angle of the wind and it is a bit better for him. a little anyway.


So, I’m not sure what I’m going to do tomorrow. I might do some laundry and if I’m smart I’ll work on lesson prep for next week too. 


Come back later if you will and read all about my day. Until tomorrow…
