 Thursday - Sunny and warmer today

I went to bed before my usual time last night, but F woke up and got up before I actually got into bed. He’d gone downstairs and brought up a banana. It was an older banana and it smelled a bit. Reader, you may not know this about me, but I loathe bananas. I never eat them and find the smell revolting. I reminded him how much I hate bananas and he went off on me about how I shouldn’t say that I hate things. It is childish according to him. I reminded him that I’m not Japanese and there is no problem in my culture saying that I hate something.  I wasn’t insulting him for liking bananas, that would be rude.

I went downstairs and then when I came back he was already asleep in bed. I got into bed and read for a few minutes and then tried to go to sleep. And failed. I ended up getting up a bit later and going downstairs again. When I got back into bed I read a little bit longer before going to sleep. 

I didn’t wake up when F left this morning and was surprised when my alarm went off. I went downstairs and then came back up. I did my usual news and snooze thing. 

I was going to go down to grab my breakfast when I realized I was hearing some banging from the kitchen. K had decided to clean the kitchen sink. Since the two of us have a difference of opinion on what and how to do that, I decided to leave her to it. 

I went back upstairs and had an instant pasta soup for my breakfast. I watched a bit of TV and went downstairs later on to grab my lunch. K was nowhere to be seen. 

I went upstairs and ate my lunch. I watched Bake-Off and then the news. I wasn’t sure if F would call me later, but he did.  

I went downstairs and started to get ready to cook dinner. F came back to the house just before I started. 

Tonight’s dinner was ebi-mayo (aka shrimp with mayonnaise), salad, spinach and bacon with veggies, beets, and I also toasted an onion cake too. F and K both had rice too. Dinner was good! K was fine 

I did the clean-up afterwards and listened to a bit of a podcast, and also a bit of a book. Unfortunately, the book keeps stopping and when I restart it, it repeats a lot of what I’ve already heard. It’s odd. 

F and I spent a few minutes together and then we went out. We had to pick up a few groceries for tomorrow. 

We came back to the house and then I watched The Rookie and turned off the TV. F had gone to bed hopefully and honestly, I’d like to get off to bed soon too. I’m quite tired. 

Come back later if you like and hear all about my Friday. Until tomorrow….
