Monday - Hot and humid, mostly sunny
Today was a really hot day. In fact, I checked out the NHK website and for my area, they recommended not to do strenuous work in the afternoon. Don’t worry, I didn’t!
I went to bed around 3:30 and fell asleep after a little bit of book reading. I had to turn off the AC before bed as F hates it. I woke up with the room at 29 degrees and me sweating all over. Bleck. I went downstairs and then came back upstairs. I was planning to have my usual morning of news watching and snoozing but F phoned me. That is never a good sign!
Despite F getting a document from City Hall about my income last year, he needs me to work it out for him again. Darn it! I wanted to snooze and he wanted me to think. I did. Hopefully, I gave him the right information, but I did make him wait for a while!
I had my breakfast and afterwards, I had a drink. Then I took a nap. It was so hot in here. I had to run the AC early today, it was oppressive in here. When I got up, I did a final proof of my column and then I sent it in. Done!
I went downstairs and grabbed my lunch. I tried to make K turn on her AC, but she faked that she didn’t understand me. She sat there waving a fan on herself. She is so stubborn. It was 33 degrees in the kitchen when I checked my thermometer….
I went upstairs and ate my lunch. I also watched an episode of The Mentalist too. I enjoyed that. Something is definitely brewing on that show.
F called quite early today so I went downstairs and started on dinner. I wasn’t really sure what I should make if I am honest, but decided that I’d do veggies and chicken all together in the air fryer. That’s what I did! I prepared the last two potatoes that we had, cooked them for a few minutes alone and then added some frozen vegetables and the chicken. A little bit later I added in some broccoli and green pepper. I cooked it all for a while and it was pretty darn good.
F came back to the house before I got started and talked to his mother about turning on the AC. It’s August now, it is too hot to just “gaman”. Happily, she had turned on the AC just as I was getting started in the kitchen. I opened the doors so I could get some of the cooler air in the kitchen.
I was a few minutes late on dinner as I wanted to make sure the chicken was cooked. It was. We had some nice salad, some chicken and veggies and some cucumber salad stuff. I enjoyed it, and I think everyone else did too. I was surprised that F didn’t demand rice with his meal, but he didn’t!
I did the dishes, but since I had done it all in my air fryer and tried to keep up with dishes before dinner, there wasn’t much to do. Woot. It didn’t take all that long to finish up. I listened to my podcasts while I did that too.
I went upstairs and relaxed for a while. F came up soon and asked if I wanted to go out. I said no, but reminded him that we should go out tomorrow. I had a cup of tea and then went downstairs to take my shower. It was nice to take one, but coming out of the shower I was immediately all hot again. Sigh.
I came upstairs and watched an episode of The Boys. I’ve just started the second season. I like it, but it is rather violent. I had planned to watch something else too, but realized it was already midnight. Oops. The TV went off.
And that’s about it for me. I’ve been watching YouTube for the last little while. It’s been a decent if very hot day.
Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
