Thursday - Sunny and warm
I woke up early and made a trip downstairs, so I didn’t get up at my usual time today. Oh dear. I got up a bit late and then did my usual snooze and watch the news thing. I did get dressed fairly early but that was no big deal. When I got up for real, I did a load of laundry and then hung it up while I watched Elementary. I missed a lot of the last season so it is nice that I’m able to watch it again.
I had a quiet morning as usual. I watched some YouTube and some real TV, in the afternoon while I ate lunch I put on Shameless and watched it. I’ve stopped watching it on Tuesday nights as it is a show that F doesn’t get at all. I’d rather watch it by myself anyway. I followed that up with an episode of The Walking Dead. It was a good one that really moved some of the plot along.
When F called to say he was finished work, I went downstairs and started on dinner. Tonight was an easy one, sort of. I did chicken nuggets and hash brown patties. We had a salad with it and I put some cucumber in it, as well as there being a punnet of mini tomatoes for K. She devours those, I can’t eat them because of my sensitivity to them. I also found a new recipe for okra, a baked one. I followed the recipe and after ten minutes they looked great. However, I stupidly decided to give them two more minutes in the toaster oven and they burned. Wah! I tried to take out the charcoal ones, but the others weren’t too bad. They were quite dry and non-slimy which was good.
As usual, I did the dishes, but tonight it wasn’t a big hardship as there just weren’t that many. I got them done quickly and went upstairs.
F wanted to leave for the shop almost immediately. I asked for a few more minutes. I’d been on my feet for the last couple of hours, I just wanted a little bit of peace. But, it was not to be.
Before dinner, I had asked F what he wanted for dinner tomorrow and he suggested using my pasta to make a type of yakisoba. I suggested just doing yakisoba, so that’s what we agreed on.
We went to the shop and started to gather the ingredients plus the other shopping I needed to do. F got a real bee in his bonnet about having that red ginger stuff for the yakisoba. I told him it was fine for him and his mother, but I don’t like it. He told me that it was good in yakisoba (not in my opinion) and that he should make me eat it. I told him that telling me that he was going to make me do something was really bad and I wouldn’t. I pointed out that I didn’t like that ginger stuff at all. I never have. I’ve tried it of course, but I don’t like it at all. So then, he started to put all the ingredients and all of the rest of the food back. Seriously. He put back the meat, the ginger, the noodles and then started to put back the stuff that I wanted for dinner on the side. When I objected and asked him what he was doing he dropped the basket and announced that he was leaving.
I put the few items that were in the basket for him back on the shelves. I got a couple of other things for me and kept the breakfast thing for K and went through the checkout.
When I got to the door, the car was still there, but F was nowhere in sight. I checked to see if the car was still locked and it was. I hung around outside the store waiting to see where he was. Knowing him, he could have gone over to the coffee shop, or he could just be hiding somewhere.
I saw him about ten minutes later going back into the store. I followed him and yelled at him that I was ready to leave and that I had put his stuff back. Okay, I didn’t yell, I was in public after all.
I got in the car, but then he coughed a bit and went to a vending machine for a drink. He came back in the car and sneezed a few times. As we drove back to his house he announced that he was going to cancel our big dinner next week. I didn’t say anything. I was expecting him to say that. I’ve been reading my blog about all of the crap that he’s put me through in September through the years and all the dumb things he has done and it doesn’t matter. If he cancels it I’m sure he’ll feel sorry about it and if he doesn’t I’m sure we’ll have a nice time.
I put my groceries away and then I came upstairs. After F came upstairs, I went downstairs and took a shower. Just as I was about to go upstairs, he came downstairs to the kitchen. I’m sure he made himself a second dinner. He has been doing that a lot lately.
So, that’s it for me. I might be making dinner for my MIL and myself tomorrow, or maybe just for myself. Or, maybe I’ll run off and join the circus. I’ll most likely be here tomorrow night, although I have been pricing hotels in other cities so you just never know!
Come back later if you like and hear all about my Friday. Until tomorrow….
