 Tuesday - Rainy and colder


I woke up quite early. F switched on the lights in the bedroom when he got up and they shone into my eyes. I go to bed with an eye mask on, but for some reason, it shifts around a bit and the light woke me up. I tried to go back to sleep but knew I’d have to go downstairs. I did, but on the way down, I heard something like a radio. F was in the washroom listening to something on his phone. I flipped the light on for him and waited for him. I thought that if his mother had woken up, she would have just barged in because she wouldn’t have heard the phone.


I went back to bed and tried to sleep longer. It was hard because at 9 am the wreckers started working on the garage nearby that is being torn down. All day there was noise and shaking in the house. Rather annoying. 


I got up later and did my laundry. Finally! I did a couple of loads and got them hung up in my room. I had a pretty good day, I finally found a place to put my suitcase so I don’t have to move it every night. Later in the day I also tossed a few plastic bottles too. Yay. 


F popped in for a few minutes when I was just going to put on the episode of FBI from Saturday night. He didn’t stay very long but seemed okay.


F called around 5:15 to say he was on his way back, and then a bit later, I went downstairs to get dinner started. Tonight I made Buta Kimchi so it was a little bit of work, but not too much. I had to chop up an onion, I also cut up some mushrooms for a separate dish and cut up the pork into bite-sized pieces.


F came back while I was prepping, we had a nice reunion. He went upstairs to change and have a break while I was cooking. 


I had things cooked and I was setting the table. I called F down and he came. I asked him to put rice on our plates. He followed me back into the kitchen, but I didn’t really understand why. He wanted a bowl to put the rice in, to put on our plates. Okay, whatever. He grabbed one and then put it down next to the cutting board on which I had cut the raw pork on. I hadn’t washed it as I like to do it separately after doing the dishes. I told him that the board had been used for raw pork and he shouldn’t touch it with the bowl. I grabbed him another bowl of the same size and gave it to him. I thought everything was okay, but he got to the door, turned around, threw the bowl on the floor and stormed off. 


Luckily the bowl didn’t break, so I picked it up and put it off to the side to be washed again.


I went out to the living room, took two glasses for K and me and brought back F’s plate to the kitchen. We had a nice meal, the two of us. Sadly there were lots of leftovers, which might be a good thing as F didn’t take me shopping tonight.


After we ate, I did the dishes and went upstairs. F was in bed, probably pretending to be asleep. I flipped on the light so that I could go over to my part of the room. I did turn it off afterwards. 


I spent the next few hours on my computer watching YouTube. F got up a bit after 10 pm and probably made himself dinner as the kitchen is no longer the tidy place I left it. 


He didn’t talk to me when he came back and I didn’t talk to him. 


I watched FBI: International at 11 pm and then some music afterwards as I was trying to be annoying. I turned off the TV by midnight. 


And that’s about it for my day. I’m not sure what F thinks I’m going to do about food for dinner tomorrow. I think he’ll get to worry about that. I know that he’ll take care of his mother, but he won’t likely bother about me. 


Anyway, come back later if you like and hear all about my Wednesday. Until tomorrow….
