Friday - Snowy and cold. Brrr…
I went to bed very late last night and I seem to be on the same track tonight too. Sigh. Still, the day wasn’t too bad, so that was good.
I always face the last day of the year with a bit of worry. It doesn’t usually go that well for me. However, this year it was fine. It wasn’t fabulous, but more importantly, it wasn’t terrible!
I slept in fairly late this morning. I went downstairs and F was just going to wash the toilet room floor. Luckily I was able to get in there before he did. I went back to sleep for a while and then when I got up, went downstairs again. F was quite cranky for a few minutes so I scarpered back upstairs and out of his way.
A little later F came up and was cheerful and happy. He asked if I wanted to go out for lunch. Of course, the answer was yes. I suggested going to Gusto since I wasn’t sure what was open. F said it was okay so I was rather surprised when we ended up at Coco’s! However, I do like it better anyway, so that was good. We had a nice meal with a coupon for cheap drink bar. At the end of our meal, when we were about to go for groceries, F got a call from the doctor.
Earlier in the day, F had tried to take his mother to the holiday doctor, but they didn’t get in in time. He called and talked to someone and they said that they would try to have someone see her in the afternoon. We were finished our meal when they called, so F paid and we drove back to the house.
F took K off to the doctor’s office and I stayed at the house. I shovelled quite a bit of snow so that F would have an easier time parking on the way back. I also cleared off the steps too.
I had a nice relaxing hour or so at the house. When they came back, F and I got ready to go out to the grocery store.
We did a little shopping. F drove me crazy because I would ask him what meal he was planning for the items that he picked, but he wouldn’t or couldn’t tell me. I really wanted to have some kind of plan for the meals for the next couple of days. However, I didn’t really get any! I decided to try and let him do his thing.
We came back to the house and a bit later F got cooking. I came upstairs and left him to it. He called me down a bit later to heat up some of the food that we bought today. There was a bunch of tempura and other fried foods, so I used my air fryer to heat it up. It worked rather well, so that was good.
F had made some soba so we had soba and the stuff from the store and had a nice meal together. I even had more soba, F made the soba into a kind of stew and that was nice.
F washed the dishes and I dried them. After he finished his, I washed my air fryer, made some more tea and cleaned the stove off. He’d left it in a mess.
I came upstairs and watched some AppleTV. F was going to watch TV up here but he was going to use the big TV which would put me in the middle. He decided to watch downstairs. Thank you, dear!
We had talked about walking to the shrine at midnight, and I had planned to take a shower too. However, I decided that with the hot water still being a bit shaky that I wouldn’t shower tonight. The walk to the shrine is off too. It’s only -3 outside, but there is a strong wind which is making it feel a lot colder. My weather app said it feels like -10, so I made the decision to not go tonight.
Just before midnight, F and I went downstairs and got ourselves something alcoholic to drink, brought it upstairs and wished each other a happy new year!
It was a pretty low-key evening, but a nice one. I’d rather have a low-key evening, than a bad one, so there’s that! I’m not sure what we’re going to do tomorrow, but we are having sushi for dinner tomorrow night. We ordered it last weekend. Yum!
Come back later if you like and hear all about my new year in the new year! Until tomorrow….
