Thursday - Sunny, hot and humid


I woke up rather early this morning. F hadn’t turned on the AC this morning so I was quite hot in bed. I got up and made a trip downstairs, and of course, used the AC. I went back to bed, but did read and watch videos for a little bit first. 


When I got up later I went downstairs and grabbed my breakfast before coming upstairs again. I ate breakfast, watched the news and a bunch of YouTube as well. I had a very quiet afternoon, which I was quite happy about. I didn’t see much of K today.


I grabbed lunch around 2:40 and came back upstairs at 3 pm. I watched an episode of The Good Fight today and it was a cracking good one. One of the main characters was shot today and a bunch of things happened because of it. Alan Alda was in it again and so were some of the customers from The Good Wife


F called me today around 5:40 and said he was by Tsuruoka Park. I’m not sure why he didn’t phone me earlier! I quickly changed and went downstairs to get dinner ready. 


Tonight I made what I call a Veggie Bake. I peeled, soaked and then dried some potatoes, cut up an onion and put them in the air fryer with some spices and then after 10 minutes I added some sausage and some mushrooms. I also made some okra for dinner, some cucumber sticks and we also had some salad. Dinner did go over quite well and a lot of it disappeared. There was enough left for both K and I to get lunch food for tomorrow. 


I did the dishes afterwards and it wasn’t too bad for a change. The only complicated thing I had was the air fryer and that was pretty easy tonight. 


After I finished the dishes, I had to change my clothes and then go out to do some shopping. F was out in the car about 10 minutes before I was ready. I’m a bit frustrated with him doing that. I know he says that he’s cooling down the car, but I don’t get any rest between finishing the dishes and going out to shop. I’m tired, soaking wet from sweat, heat and the dishwater and I still have to change my clothes. 


I got to the store and bought a few groceries. I didn’t get any treats for anyone, not even myself! I decided that I’m not going to do much cooking tomorrow, so I got us a cooked chicken breast for our dinner. I’ll do some pasta with that, hopefully it’ll be good. 


Back at the house, I put away the shopping and then came upstairs and put on a dress that I found last night. I bought it in Canada for summers here, it was nice but the neck is a bit tight. I relaxed and then watched The Rookie: Feds. It connected to the other The Rookie a bit, at least it had some of the baddies were.  I liked it tonight.


And honestly, that’s about it. It was a long hot day and I am a bit tired. I’d like to get some sleep. 


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

My husband does the exact same thing, he rushes off to the car and says he's waiting for me there but leaves me to shut the windows and lock the door plus get my son out the door etc. It's very frustrating as I feel I have to rush and then I forget things. Not sure why our men feel the need to do this.

In my hubby's case, I think he just doesn't think about the other things I need to do before I leave. I like to check the fridge to make sure I'm not buying too much food/things we don't need...he just buys everything! I need to check there are shopping bags in the car, he just doesn't care about that!

I'm glad that he takes me to the store, don't get me wrong, but I'd love a few minutes to put my feet up first to rest and relax after the dinner stuff.

Thanks for commenting today!
