Sunday - Snowy and cold


I woke up this morning before my alarm. I got up, went downstairs and discovered that the Takkyubin guy had already been and tried to deliver our package. When I went upstairs F was awake and I told F about the failed delivery. He immediately wanted to call and have the package redelivered. I didn’t understand why. We hadn’t made any plans for the day. He started demanding I tell him when it would be okay to have it delivered. I suggested tomorrow between 6 and 8 pm as I’d be downstairs and could answer the door. He suggested between 2 and 3 today. I told him I didn’t know where we’d be as we had to do some shopping.


The next thing I knew was F calling the shipping company again and asking them to redeliver the package and if we weren’t in to put it on a bench and to cover it with a container that F left outside.


I was really annoyed with him for that. There was no need to have it delivered today, it’s a really cold day and there was the possibility that it could freeze.


He got very angry at that, decided that he wouldn’t go out, wouldn’t get up and he went back to bed. He stayed there for most of the day. 


I thought I heard the delivery person ring the doorbell, so I went downstairs. I was correct. He’d put the box where F told him to so I grabbed the box and brought it inside. I didn’t realize, but F ordered 9 bottles of distilled water….I was expecting 6. I could barely move the box, let alone take it up the stairs to our part of the house. Ack. 


I had to open the box and take out some of the bottles so that I could carry the box upstairs. I really wasn’t too happy with F just then. I’m strong, but carrying 18 litres of water at once is something I’m not happy about. 


I tried to get him to get moving later on and even to get up to feed his mother, but he wouldn’t. I was so annoyed. He not only wasted his weekend, but mine too. 


I had a very late breakfast in the afternoon and watched a couple of things on my computer from WOWOW on Demand. I caught episode 6 of Yellowjackets and the first episode of Supernatural. I’m not sure if I’m going to watch all of Supernatural, but I could if I wanted! I did some crochet in the afternoon too. I’m working on my scarf and I’m close to finishing it. Unfortunately, I had to rip out all the work I did in the afternoon.


Around 6 pm I made another appeal to F. We needed to go grocery shopping and I was hella hungry. He finally roused himself. We got dressed and went downstairs. He gave his mother the bento that she hadn’t eaten yesterday for her dinner and then we went out. Of course, we had to clear a lot of snow first because there was a lot around the car.


I had suggested going to Coco’s, but on the way F talked about going for yakiniku. I was fine with that, but when we went to the yakiniku restaurant we wouldn’t be able to get in until 8 pm. It was around 6:30. F said no, and we went to Coco’s instead.


Coco’s was fine tonight. We were seated right away and both ended up ordering the same thing, soup curry. We also had appetizers. I ordered calamari and F ordered red scorpionfish! It was decent. We had drink bar too and I kept us plied with drinks.


When we finished we went to the Pal Shopping Centre and did the shopping. I went into the shop and F stayed in the car. I got the groceries we needed, at least I hope I did, paid, and then came back to the car. We drove back to F’s house. 


When we got back, F rushed into the house and straight into the washroom as usual. Sigh. I unpacked the groceries and sorted out the things I needed to take upstairs and leave downstairs. 


I went upstairs and a little later F came up too. He spent most of his time in his room watching TikTok and I spent most of my time in my part of the room watching YouTube videos and crocheting. I think I’ll be able to finish my scarf soon and then I want to start a scrap blanket. I have a lot of yarn scraps and odd bits of yarn that I’ve bought for projects that I don’t need, so I might as well use them up. I can always start it and finish it later as I get more yarn. It’ll help keep me warm!


So that’s it for me. I’m beyond annoyed at F wasting all our time today. I know that he is in a lot of pain, but the thing is that he was such a complete jerk that I stopped caring. He knows that there are three things that I have been asking him for help with since last year and none of them were accomplished. He was also supposed to book something for my birthday in a couple of weeks and hasn’t to my knowledge. Well, I think I need to start planning my own trip and just say I don’t care what he does at that time. After all, last year he gave me Covid for my birthday and I had to cancel all of my plans, even the ones that included him. I don’t want to do that this year too.


Come back later if you like and listen to me whine some more! Until tomorrow….

Sorry to hear about your day. It must be hard when winter rolls around being so snowy and icy outside. It's not like you can take a bus or anything, you might freeze. I hope tomorrow is a better one.

Yes, I probably should have taken myself out and let him grump in the house by himself, but I didn't.

I will try and do it next time though!
