Thursday - Clear in the morning, snowy at night, colder.

I got up this morning, went downstairs and watched the news from the bed. I took a long snooze after the news finished. When I woke up, I went downstairs, grabbed my breakfast and came back upstairs to eat.

I watched a little TV, and some YouTube and did a little crochet too. My blanket is growing in leaps and bounds.

I had a fairly quiet afternoon. I did a little texting with friends about our trip this month. I grabbed lunch and then came upstairs to eat. I watched an episode of Bake-Off and rather enjoyed that. I’ve only seen this season once I think, so it was nice to see it again. 

I watched the news at 4 pm and a little afterwards F called to say he was on his way back. I went downstairs to start dinner. 

Tonight I did a new to me recipe, an Asian-style stirfry and I added mushrooms to it. It turned out really well, so I was pleased. I also did some roasted potatoes and sweet potatoes in the air fryer. For a change, I left them bigger and half-boiled them first. That meant that they were nearly cooked when I put them in, so it didn’t take too long. I was a bit late getting dinner on the table but it came together. I texted F to come down if he was feeling up to it, and I woke up K. She came out to the table, and F came down too. Dinner was good. There was a little leftover so I put it away in the fridge. I hope that I can have some for my lunch tomorrow, maybe!

Speaking of which, F is taking tomorrow off. He isn’t feeling that well. I hope that he goes to the doctor tomorrow. He doesn’t have a temperature, so I don’t think it is anything too serious. 

I had a fairly quiet evening. F was listening to something on his phone so it was loud and annoying. I watched something on TV and then a little YouTube, and then back to TV for New Amsterdam. Tonight I worked on my blanket. I made a couple of balls of yarn from other yarn and I crocheted a couple of rows, maybe even three rows. It’s getting quite a bit bigger. Sadly, I broke my crochet hook tonight. I’ve been using a plastic one from the hundred yen shop. Luckily, I had a spare one, so I’ll have to go back and get another one as a spare. 

So, that’s it for today for me. Come back later if you like and hear all about my Friday. Until tomorrow….
