Wednesday - Cold, snowy and windy
I woke up this morning before F left the house. He came back into the room after I woke up. Not sure why I woke up, not blaming him!
I went downstairs, came back and watched the news. After the news was finished, I’m afraid I did something a little bad. I went back to bed for an hour. I didn’t do the napping at the bottom of the bed, I went up to the top of the bed and went back to sleep.
I got up at my usual time, went downstairs and grabbed breakfast and then came upstairs to eat. I watched some YouTube and relaxed a bit. While I was downstairs, I noticed that there was quite a bit of snow outside. Boo!
Before I made my lunch, I decided to go outside and shovel some snow. When I went out first it was snowing and windy, but it stopped snowing soon after. I cleared the steps and the area around the steps. I moved the snow that was between the parking area and the street and got it out of the way. When I finished, It looked pretty good.
I went back in the house and made my lunch. I had a few leftovers from Monday, so I had them plus my usual stuff. When I took everything upstairs I watched an episode of The Great British Sewing Bee. It was a good one. They had to make kilts! I can barely imagine.
I watched the news and after a bit F called. I went downstairs to get started on dinner. F kept calling me to give me updates! It was a bit annoying as my hands were wet or I was cutting things and the timing was off, but whatever. I appreciated his calls on one level.
Tonight I did the spicy tofu dish from Aaron and Clare and also made a stir-fry. I had to make two different sauces so it was a bit of a scramble as usual, but it worked out. F got back just a bit before 7 and I hadn’t started cooking yet. I was almost ready though.
I baked the tofu in my air fryer and stir-fried the veggies and meat on the stove. I was bouncing around the kitchen! I also got the table started. Happily, I had started the heater in the living room early today so it was almost warm when we had dinner. I got everyone downstairs or out of bed and we had dinner. F said the stir fry was very good, and since he doesn’t usually say anything about my cooking, pleased me a lot!
I did the clean-up afterwards, which seemed to take a long time, but really wasn’t long. I listened to three different movie podcasts tonight, plus the news, so maybe it did take a while! When I was done with the dishes, I did up the garbage. I sneakily threw out a few older items from the fridge. We still had eggs from last year in the fridge…I wouldn’t eat them or cook with them now, so why keep them? F doesn’t like to waste food, and neither do I, but I’d rather throw out outdated food than risk food poisoning.
I went upstairs and changed into my pyjamas. I rested for a bit and then went downstairs and took a shower. The water was running too hot for me tonight, I don’t like that. I went back upstairs and watched an episode of The Red Green Show which was silly and funny and Canadian so it made me smile! I got to do a bit of crochet too until I ran out of one of my balls of yarn. No biggie really.
So that was about it for my day. F took his shower later and is in bed now. he’s been wearing his headphones tonight. I am glad as I dislike the sound from his cellphone, but it feels…unfriendly. He wore them at dinner too, which was odd but whatever.
I did work on my column a little bit today and wrote a bit about one actress. I hope that I will have some time tomorrow to do a bit more, but I also have to do some laundry. It might be my last time before my trip next week. F will be off work on Friday, so not much chance to do it then.
Well, I think I’m done. I’m not sure what I’m going to make for dinner tomorrow night, well, not completely anyway. Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
