Wednesday - Cooler and muggy


I woke up before my alarm again, made a trip downstairs too. Back in my room I put on some of my clothes and had another nap. I got up later and today made porridge for my breakfast. It was nice.


I had a quiet day. I worked on my next hat a couple of times and decided that I’d do a ribbed brim. I’ve got it started and seems to be going well.


In the afternoon I watched a bit of YouTube and then went downstairs to get my lunch. I brought it back up and watched an episode of The Great British Sewing Bee. It was about the 60’s and was a cool episode. 


F called after 5:30 today and said he was coming back. We got into an argument about some food. His sister must have come over today and gave his mother some bamboo soup. Well, K had just left it on the stove. It didn’t have a cover and it was full of pork and bamboo. F wanted to have it for dinner and I told him that I wouldn’t have any because I didn’t think it was safe leaving food out like that. He tried to tell me that it was safe, but I said it wasn’t. He started to harangue me about it so I hung up on him. I don’t even like bamboo soup, so why would he try to make me eat something that I didn’t like and would most likely make me sick?


I went downstairs a little later and got started on dinner. I wasn’t even sure if F would eat dinner with us now, so I was a bit nervous about having him back. After he arrived, he disappeared upstairs so I texted him and asked if he’d have dinner with us. He said he would, so I got busy. 


Tonight I did burgers from the store, French fries in the air fryer, salad, and some sautéed mushrooms. I also opened a packet of gravy and made that up too. I got dinner on the table right around 7 pm and called F down. 


He came downstairs, but went into the kitchen and heated up the leftover soup and served it to his mother and himself. I’m glad that he didn’t give me any, but I was rather annoyed that he delayed dinner to do that. It wasn’t necessary and meant that no one ate as much of my food. Whatever.


I did the dishes afterwards, but I left the bowls that 

F used for the soup on the table. K brought them into the kitchen for me and I put them on the table. I wasn’t planning on washing them. 


I washed and dried dishes while listening to my podcasts. After that, I had to do the garbage up for the week. There was an extra bag that has been on the floor all week. I opened it and it was mostly K’s garbage. She’d put an aluminum can in it and a pet bottle, both of which aren’t allowed in with burnable garbage. I sorted that out and got the rest of the garbage done.


I went upstairs and did my garbage in the room. During the day, I had cleaned off some of my desk so I was throwing things out and it filled up my bag too.


F did his garbage and then he took it out to the station. We went out to get some food for tomorrow. I picked up stuff for dinner tomorrow and breakfasts for F and K as well. 


I am a little disappointed with F. I had asked him to plan a night out for us tomorrow night. He doesn’t work on Friday, so I suggested going to an izakaya for our dinner. Because of the holiday, he would have had to book a taxi and the bar early, but he didn’t. I suggested this to him a few weeks ago and then reminded him this weekend and nothing. Oh well. 


Tonight I watched something off the Fire Disk and  then turned it off. They are going to take off The Closer, but I don’t think I’ll get quite as obsessed with it as I did over Fringe. I mostly promise. I did more knitting while I watched. 


That’s about it for today. I’ll try and do a bit of laundry tomorrow and try to get set up for the weekend. I hope it goes well…wish me luck!


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