Tuesday - Sunny and warm, rainy (so rainy) at night
Although I had set my alarm for my regular time, I woke up just before 7 am. F was still sleeping so I went downstairs. When I came back up, he was getting dressed and he had turned on the lights. I got back into bed and went back to sleep. Oh, well, actually, I changed my alarms so that I would have more than an hour to sleep.
When I woke up, I got up and got dressed. It was a good thing I did because the doorbell rang. I went downstairs, thinking it would be F’s sister, but it wasn’t. It was F’s aunt. She was dropping off some persimmons. Sigh. It’s our second box. I barely eat fruit and I’m not sure how many more kaki K can eat! (Probably a lot.) The aunt and I smiled, we were both wearing masks. I let her know that K was sleeping so she didn’t stay.
I went upstairs again and relaxed a bit. F called to say that he was going to come back to the house for a few minutes. He did, bearing ice cream. Yay!
He relaxed for a few minutes but had to leave soon after. I grabbed my breakfast and then came upstairs to eat and watch more YouTube!
In the afternoon, I worked on my icicles. I had a couple that I had to darn in the ends with. After that, I made some hanging strings and attached them to the ornaments. It took a while as I was braiding invisible thread!
I went down to get my lunch and brought it back up. I watched another episode of Killing Eve and it was good. After that, I watched a really bad TV show that I found when I was in Niigata and I’ve been taping and watching. After that, it was the news for me. I had finished my strings so I hung them all up in the room and left them so I could admire my work!
I went downstairs tonight around 5:45 and got started on dinner. Tonight I baked basil chicken, french fries, salad, sautéed eggplant and marinated mushrooms. I managed to get everything on the table by 7:00 too, so that was good. Dinner got pretty good reviews and afterwards, I put things away and started the dishes.
It took a while, but I got done. I went upstairs to change and hopefully relax, but F wanted to leave right away. Sigh. I changed and off we went.
We went to Mina, the nearest big grocery and did our shopping. I couldn’t find a lot of stuff that I wanted, but what else is new? F kept disappearing on me as usual. He bought his own beer and stuff which is good because I wouldn’t buy them for him!
We paid and left. The rain that was really fierce on the way into the store had calmed down a lot. Whew. We came back to the house and put the groceries away. F did this weird thing where he kept getting in my way. I didn’t know what that was about. I wanted to wash my hands, but he was in the bathroom, then I wanted to go upstairs, but he’d put his clothing and his brace all over the first three steps. There was no reason why.
He finally went upstairs and I followed. We had a quiet evening in. I watched FBI: International again and of course, F talked rubbish to me during the last 10 minutes. I don’t understand why he does that.
After my show was over and I had the TV off, I actually told him that I was really upset that he didn’t ask how I was at any point over the last three days. He said he did. He didn’t. When I ask how he is, he tells me and that’s the end of the conversation. No reciprocity.
Anyway, that’s it for me for today. I’m not sure what I’m going to get up to tomorrow. Maybe I’ll write the other part of my column since I really have to get on that! Wish me luck.
Come back later if you like and read all about my day. Until tomorrow….
