Sunday - Cloudy but warmer


A terribly weird day!


I woke up this morning before my alarm went off and went downstairs. I felt sick. I thought I would vomit. I didn’t. I went back upstairs, grabbed a basin that I have in the room and took it back to bed with me. F was very sweet about the whole thing. I slept a bit longer and felt slightly better when I got up the next time.


F had given his mother something to eat, so we decided to go out and see if I could eat something. I had asked for a pasta place, but when we got there it was closed. The next place I suggested was closed too so F took me to a very old style udon/soba place. It was very no-frills. The food was okay but I was freezing in there. I couldn’t take my coat off I was so cold and I hate eating with my coat on!


Since we were close to the grocery store I suggested going to get our groceries for the next couple of days. We both needed washrooms as well, so that was something we could find at the store! We bought some interesting stuff at the grocery store and then came back to the house. I put the groceries away and then came back upstairs. 


I went to bed if I’m honest. I had hoped to get up again at 5 and go to S-Mall, but I didn’t wake up until after 6 pm.  Oops. F woke up around then too. The heater was beeping, that’s why we woke up I think. 


F was wondering about dinner again. I didn’t really feel like eating too much, so I looked at some bento shops on my computer. Most of them serve deep-fried food and I wanted to stay away from them. I ended up suggesting going to a gyudon restaurant. We could either take K with us, or we go and bring her back a bento. F liked that idea, so that’s what we did. 


We went off to Tsukiya and had the same thing. We had a beef teishoku, or set meal. It came with miso soup, kimchi, rice and cooked beef. It was quite nice. I gave F a lot of my rice because I didn’t need it. We also got K a nice bento too. 


On the way back to the house we stopped into another grocery store to pick up some milk and I got a couple of extra things to supplement our meals for the next couple of days. 


We had a quiet evening back at the house. F broke his glasses. Earlier in the day, I noticed that they were bent…it’s a modern style and the glass part is sort of separate from the frame. One of the lenses was bending out from the frame, F gently put it back. Tonight, it happened again and this time it broke. Sigh. I was afraid that would happen when he bought the frames, but he said it wouldn’t. It did once before too. 


I watched an episode of Ted Lasso and then some YouTube and now you are up to date. I feel a bit better tonight. 


F wasn’t sure about going to work tomorrow. He might take the day off if he is feeling bad. He’s had a lot of trouble this weekend with his knee and a cough, so I’m not sure what he is going to do.


Anyway, I need to get to bed soon so that I’m not as late as I was last night. It was a strange day and I didn’t do anything that I really wanted to, so hopefully Monday will be better. Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow...

That sucks that you're not feeling well, Helen! Hope you get better asap. If cases of covid are rising in your area, might be worth getting tested. Take care!

Thanks! I feel much better today. I don't think it was Covid. It could have been something I ate, but of course, I'm not sure.

Thanks for visiting!
