Friday - Snowy and cool
I woke up this morning without my alarm. F was sitting on the bottom of the bed. He was debating what to do with himself. He decided to take himself off to make his mother’s breakfast and then he went out a bit later to get his hair cut.
I dragged myself out of bed and got dressed. We’d decided that we would take K out for lunch with us today since it is a holiday and on Saturday she has her daycare thing to go to.
We all piled in the car and did the usual drive around the area to find a good place to go. Every place that we thought would suit was busy as heck. Finally, F suggested a good soba place, so we went there and managed to get the last three seats. We had to share a table with a couple of men, but at least we got in somewhere.
The soba was delicious and the tempura we had with it was even better. Yum. K gave some of her stuff to F, he wasn’t too happy about it.
We brought her back to the house and then we went out. First up, I needed a washroom, so we ended up at a drugstore where we also bought a few things for the house. They have good prices on things like washing up liquid. I need the one for sensitive skin because most Japanese soap for dishes is too harsh for me.
Then, we did the weird thing where we went to Musashi looking for a new uniform for F to wear to work. They didn’t have what he wanted so I suggested looking on line for it. We didn’t buy anything there…oops, tell a lie. F got himself a thermometer for his fish tank. I suggested getting a digital one with a big dial so that it would be easy to read.
After that, we drove to Kamo. Not to the aquarium, but to the restaurant in search of coffee. I had looked it up online and it was supposed to be open today. Open it was, but not when we got there! Lunch was over. They don’t have coffee time. Instead, we drove back to Yunohama and went to the Hyyakken restaurant. They do have coffee time. We sneaked in just before last order and had tea or coffee and cake. The cake was nice, so was the tea.
We drove back into Tsuruoka and went to a grocery store to get something for K’s dinner. Well, F went in the store. I didn’t want to. We came back to the house and F gave his mother her food. I headed upstairs and F followed a bit later.
Around 6:45 we left for Mikawa mall. It was snowing at the time, lots of little ice balls were coming down. We made good time and found a decent parking space. We went into the mall, bought our tickets and then bought our dinners. F had ramen which he hated as usual, I had bibinba and it was great!
We went to see Madame Web tonight. I had heard it was terrible but in all honesty, I kind of liked it. It wasn’t as bad as Morbius at all. I guess I just wanted to have fun tonight and the movie did it for me!
After the movie, we came back to the car and then drove back to Tsuruoka. I had suggested going to Don Quixote, but F seemed a bit tired so I didn’t push it. We did make a stop at the 7-11 on the corner and got a few munchies.
We came back to the house and just relaxed. I’ve been on my computer for hours. Now it is time for bed!
Come back later if you want and hear all about my Saturday. Until tomorrow….
