 Saturday - Hot and Sunny and Muggy


I went to bed a little later than normal last night. I did wake up fairly early the first time, went downstairs and then came back to bed and went back to sleep. 


F came back sometime in the morning. He did come into the room to say hello, but I think he fed his mother too. I overslept and didn’t drag myself out of bed until noon. It was so hot, I think I sweated too much. I grabbed a couple of sports drinks for F and I and I spent a little time on my computer. 


Finally, we talked about going for lunch and at first F said that he didn’t need lunch as he’d eaten with his mother. I thought that was fine and I could be let off at a place I liked and would enjoy myself.  However, when we left, F started talking about taking himself out for ramen. Oh well. No problem. 


He let me out at Kissa Marina and I checked that it was okay to go in. They said it was fine, yay. I waved to F to let him know it was okay. I ordered my favourite there, the curry pasta and it was as good as usual. When I had finished the food, but not my drink, I texted F to let him know I was nearly done. I didn’t want him to rush or anything, but I was the last customer and even the staff was starting to leave the restaurant for the day! He came by and then I paid and left.


We discussed what we’d like to do and ended up going to Komeda for coffee. We had to wait a few minutes for a table, but we didn’t have to rush off afterwards as K didn’t go to daycare today. 


The coffee was fine and in the end, F bought more coffee tickets today. He loves Komeda, I like it and just find that when we tend to go on Saturday afternoon it is too busy.


We drove over to Yamaya and did a little shopping there. I got more Japanese spice and we both got a few snacks. Then, F got some kerosene and some gas at the gas station. We drove back to the house.


I put away some stuff in the kitchen and then I went upstairs. I took off my outer clothing and had a lie down on the bed for a while under the air conditioner. It was 30 degrees in our bedroom. That’s much too hot for me.


After a while, I got up and spent time on my computer, F came up to the room and then decided to make his mother’s dinner. We talked about where to go for dinner. I gave F a few options and he hated them all, so I made him take me to Cocos. He said he hates it there. I like it a lot though, so decided not to care. How many times has he dragged me to places I dislike for food?


We went to Cocos and I had a decent meal. I had grilled chicken, added on a baked potato and then we shared some bruschetta with minced tuna and avocado paste. That was nice.  F had a new noodle dish, it was supposed to be a Thai dish, but he didn’t like it. F doesn’t really like Thai food, so I’m not sure why he ordered it! We both had drink bar, but today the pop machine wasn’t well stocked. I did have some nice decaf coffee.


After dinner, we came back to the house and F basically ended up going to bed. He’s tired. I watched The Spencer Sisters which was okay, but I’m not sure about it yet. 


That basically was my day. Tomorrow I’ll have to do the grocery shopping and hopefully pick up a few things I want rather than need!


I’m finally feeling mostly better from this horrid cold that I have dealt with in ages.  I still have a little bit of a cough, but at least my nose has mostly stopped running. 


Anyway, I’m off for the night. Come back later if you like and hear all about my Sunday. Until tomorrow…..
