Friday - Rainy


I woke up this morning to an empty house. It was later but still before my first alarm. To be honest, I probably got up earlier than I did most of this week!


I took care of a personal chore and then I came back upstairs. I was mostly dressed so I put on a nicer shirt and waited for F to get back. Since he wasn’t here, I realized that he was right about his doctor being open today. I found F’s phone, he’d left it behind and I noticed that it was barely charged so I plugged it in for him. I’m so nice!


He came back a few minutes later and we had a quick discussion about where to eat. Since F’s appointment was at 1:00 and it was 11 when we were discussing it, I suggested Gusto if it wasn’t busy. They are quick and if you are careful about what you order, not too bad. He liked my idea, so off we went. We were able to get in right away and had a fairly decent meal. As usual, I had to twist F’s arm to leave. He was enjoying YouTube on his phone. Over lunch, we did have a nice discussion about the car and when to replace it. I was quite surprised that F wanted to have that discussion with me. He didn’t have any discussion with me over our present car…well, except for the colour and he hates that. It’s okay, I hate the car, except for the colour! To be fairish, I was out of town when his old car died and he had to buy/order the next car very quickly, so I wasn’t around. 


We came back to the house and about 3 minutes later the insurance lady showed up. I gave her and F some mugi-cha and then I scarpered! She left a little while later. 


F came upstairs and we had a bit of a snuggle. It was nice. All too soon K came back! F went down to see her I think. 


F started asking about dinner around 5 pm.  Around that time I started to feel really, really cold. I was already wearing a sweater, I filled up the heater and turned it on. The room was 17 degrees so not that cold, but I started to shiver and I couldn’t get warm for ages. We started talking about Chinese food for dinner, then F suggested pizza and then switched somewhere in the middle to sushi. I was freezing and did not want any cold food! He practically had his order made out when I just said I didn’t want any and he could go ahead and order it for him and his mother. I didn’t want any. The cold spell hit me around then and I sat in my chair and just shivered.  It was horrible. I started to worry if I was sick but my temperature was only slightly elevated. 


F finally suggested going to the Indian restaurant. I wasn’t sure that he meant it, but it seemed he did.  We went, and it was nice. It wasn’t busy tonight, which was nice for us. We had the couple set so we shared two curries (pork saag and chicken korma) a basil naan and regular naan, some tandori chicken, shish kebab and a piece of chicken tikka. We also got ice cream, soup and salad, and a drink. It was really good. 


F ordered a bento from the other Gusto from his phone and then we went along the street to get it. I didn’t know that he had ordered it from Gusto so was surprised that he turned there! He went in and a few minutes came outside with the bento. I held it on the way back to the house.


F got K up and I washed the glasses from earlier in the day. She ate and I went upstairs.


I relaxed upstairs for a bit, then took a shower. That was nice and I enjoyed it. It was also really warm in there because I used hot water! Well, hotter than usual for me. 


And really that’s about it for the day. It was good. I could have done without the fighting over food, but it is pretty normal for the two of us. I just wish that F didn’t bait and switch so much. Going from Pizza to sushi is quite a switch. Under normal circumstances, I’d probably be fine with it, but today was cold outside and I really needed some warm/hot food. 


I’m honestly not sure what we’ll get up to tomorrow. F was talking about making a nabe for dinner. That’s fine if he doesn’t mind doing the work for it and doesn’t leave me with a huge mess to clean up! He usually does though. 


Anyway, come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
