Wednesday - Warm and sunny
We had a pretty decent day today. We all slept in quite a bit. F got up and cooked for his mother, he’s so nice about that! I slept a bit late and then finally I got up.
Around 1:00pm F and I started talking about going out for lunch. My first choice was so busy we couldn’t find a parking spot, so we went over to Gusto and had lunch there. It was fine. No big woop!
We went to get gas for the car and then we came back to the house. We unmade the bed and bagged up our bedding. Yes, it is time to change the bedding over to the summer blankets again. I undid most of the bed, but F helped with his side as I wouldn’t risk it.
We took our bedding out to the car and looked for a laundromat. The closest one didn’t have enough washers for us, so we tried a fairly new one on the main road to the city centre. It was great! They had a mammoth washing machine that also dried and finished in an hour, so we used that one. We managed to get all our stuff in the machine. I stayed with our stuff, but F went back to the house for a while to get his cell phone. I read a book on my phone and I played a game or two! F came back a bit before it finished. When the cycle was done, we took out the laundry but wanted to run the laundry in a dryer for a few minutes. We did that, and then took everything out and folded it up and left. I liked that coin laundry, so we might go back next time.
I suggested getting K a bento because it was around 6 pm when we were done. F liked that idea and suggested going out to a faraway supermarket. It was fine with me. We drove out there, and F picked a nice bento for K. There wasn’t much that I wanted there, so we didn’t get anything else.
We drove back to the house and F gave K her bento. I came upstairs and started remaking the bed. I was partially done when I remembered that we hadn’t turned the mattress. Crap! It was half made. When F came up I got him to help me rotate the mattress. Yay. Next time we should flip it.
We finally got the bed made and it looks nice and inviting. I’m really hoping that I’ll be warm enough tonight! The night isn’t that warm yet, but the mornings are.
I did suggest going to an Izakaya for dinner tonight since neither F nor I have to work tomorrow. He liked the idea, but then decided that his stomach wasn’t great so passed for tonight. That was fine with me. He suggested going to a Japanese place that I like, so I said okay. We set out there but it was closed when we got there. It is Golden Week. F gets all annoyed when he’s looked up places and they aren’t open…but the listing said they were. I keep reminding him that Golden Week means all bets are off.
After a weird thing where F started heading back to the house, I got him to at least drive down the main road! There are a lot more restaurants there. He told me off at one point for something, I didn’t understand what. I suggested the Chinese restaurant near where we used to live and F thought it was okay. It was busy, but we went in and were seated after a few minutes.
F and I shared 4 dishes tonight. We had gyoza, half a deep-fried chicken, some veggies and mushrooms in a garlic stirfry and some fried rice. It was all very nice and we were happy people when we left!
We weren’t quite ready to go back to the house yet, so we went to Starbucks and had some decaf coffee. The coffee shop was very quiet so we were able to sit where we wanted and enjoyed ourselves.
We came back to the house after 10 pm. At 11 I watched This is Going to Hurt which was rather painful to watch tonight. The main character is on a self-destructive bent at the moment.
And that was it for my day. It was quite good. I’m not sure what we’ll get up to tomorrow. Come back later if you like and hear all about our day. Until tomorrow….
