 Monday - Hot and muggy


My first memory of this morning was F moaning and groaning and checking his temperature. It was high. A little too high. He phoned into work to say he wasn’t coming in as he had a temperature.  I think it was a side effect of the vaccine since his temperature went down later in the day. So yesterday I wrote that I was looking forward to having a day without him, I’m still waiting! He was fine today really.  


I got up at my usual time and watched the news and then had a bit of a nap.  F was up and down, sometimes snoozing, sometimes not. I finally roused myself out of bed so I got dressed and grabbed breakfast. 


F fed his mother I think, although she had food that we’d bought for her in the fridge that she had eaten. 


We had a quiet afternoon. I watched something off the DVR and later the US news.  Around 6 pm I went downstairs and got started on dinner. I wasn’t sure that it was quite fair that I had to cook while F got to sleep most of the day, but I didn’t say too much. 


I think I did rather well for dinner tonight. I baked chicken with a yuzu-kosho flavouring, we had a white bean salad and an avocado salad and a lettuce salad. K and F had rice and that was it. I didn’t do a lot of cooking, but I did a lot of preparing today. Whew.


I did the dishes afterwards which didn’t take too long. When I finished I went upstairs and watched some YouTube. F was up here for a lot of it too. 


We both took showers and then F went to sleep. While I was downstairs, I started some yogurt draining so that I can use it as sour cream tomorrow. And that was my day. It wasn’t what I was expecting at all!


F should be going back to work tomorrow as long as his temperature is okay. I think he really enjoyed the day off to relax. I’m glad for him.  


That’s it for me.  Come back later if you want and hear all about my Tuesday. Until tomorrow….
