Monday - Cool but sunny

I had an odd night last night. I went to bed and then F got up and went downstairs. A few minutes after he came back to bed, I went downstairs again. I finally got to sleep after that.

I woke up this morning when F’s alarm went off. He wasn’t in the room, so I reached for the alarm and tried to turn it off. Just then, F came back into the room and I very sleepily asked him to turn off the alarm. I went back to sleep after that. 

My alarm went off an hour later and I woke up. I went downstairs and I took the kerosene tank from the heater down with me. I filled up the tank and brought it back upstairs. 

I did my usual watching TV from the bed and then fell asleep for a little while. I woke up a bit early today and then went downstairs and grabbed breakfast. I came upstairs to eat.  

I had a quiet morning and afternoon. I didn’t do any laundry today and I decided not to make the stew today, no big deal. I did a row or two of crochet in the afternoon and then I went downstairs to get my lunch. I brought that upstairs too.

I had a decent lunch today and watched the news at 4 pm. I looked up a recipe for dinner and found one, then around 5:45 got ready to go downstairs and get started on dinner. Before I went downstairs I did something a bit daft. I took the collar off my shirt that I wear in the kitchen when it is cold. The collar has been bothering me for a while, it was one that stuck up rather than folded over. I don’t usually wear that kind of thing, as it is uncomfortable. I unpicked it and honestly, I like the shirt so much more now!

I prepped quite a few things and I was working on the chicken when my phone rang. It was F. He hung up before I washed and dried my hands, but I called him back and he said that he was on the way back. 

I kept working on dinner and got bits ready and put them out on the table. F still hadn’t arrived, so I tried to get K to start eating. She wouldn’t eat for ages. F came back and he joined us at the table. 

After dinner, I did the dishes and cooked the last remaining chicken drumsticks. I didn’t get finished until almost 10 pm. I wasn’t too pleased about that. 

I went upstairs for a bit and then took a shower. I got done too late to watch any TV tonight. Sigh. However, F and I did chat with each other tonight. It was nice. Lately, he’s so into his TikTok that he can’t be bothered even talking to me. 

So, that’s about it for me. Tomorrow I think I’m going to make that stew and maybe get some other things done too. I hope so!

Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
