Tuesday - Hot and Sunny
I got up this morning when my alarm went off. I went downstairs and did the usual thing of getting partially dressed and going back to bed for a nap.
I got up later, went downstairs and grabbed my breakfast. I came upstairs to eat and watch YouTube and the news on TV. I did a bit of knitting too. I put in a line in case I mess up or drop stitches and then knitted a bit.
I went downstairs to grab my lunch and before I made lunch, I worked on tonight’s dinner. I put some pork into a marinate of soy sauce and ginger. Lunch today was a cheese bagel with cheese and chicken. It was good. I watched an episode of The Closer while I ate lunch.
F called after 5 pm to say he was on his way. I went downstairs around 5:30 to get a start on dinner. Tonight I made hot tofu with a spicy sauce, ginger pork, salad, broccoli and F contributed rice. Most of the dinner disappeared and it was quite nice!
I did the dishes afterwards and listened to my podcasts. The news said the forest fires back home are really bad, although they did say that some of the ones in Alberta got a bit of rain on them, which is good.
I went upstairs to change. F and I went out to get groceries. We drove over to the Mina shopping area and I asked if he was going to come in with me. He said no, and then went to give me some money for food. He’d forgotten his wallet. I told him that I couldn’t subsidize the groceries today, so we drove back to the house for him to get his wallet!
We went back to Mina and I went in to buy food for us. I picked up enough for a couple of dinners, breakfasts and a few other things. I went back to the car and then we drove to the drugstore and the two of us went in together. We bought a few things and then went back to the car.
We came back to the house where F ensconced himself in the washroom while I did the work of putting the groceries away. I went upstairs when I was done. I didn’t see F until just before 11pm!
I watched FBI: Most Wanted which was about a Muslim family from Somalia. It was an interesting episode, and it was written fairly well. I did some more knitting and took out one of my double-pointed needles, so now I’m only using 4 instead of 5.
F went to bed around midnight and I turned to YouTube again.
Not sure what I’ll get up to tomorrow. I did start working on my column by doing a touch of research and brainstorming. I really should start writing soon though.
Anyway, come back later if you like and hear about my Wednesday. Until tomorrow….
