Wednesday - Cloudy then rainy at night


I went to bed at my usual time and woke my husband up. I don’t think I woke him up, I think he just wakes up these days! I did my reading and then went to sleep, I think he did too.


This morning F woke me up while he was getting ready for work. I managed to just roll over and not wake up fully. I woke up later when my alarm went off. I went downstairs and F was there at the bottom of the stairs! He’d popped in to get some masks and pick up some other stuff. We had a nice meeting and then he was off. I went back to bed and slept a bit late again.


I got up later and went downstairs. I brought my breakfast upstairs and ate while watching some YouTube. I had a quiet afternoon again. I worked on my column and got it close to finishing.


I went downstairs to get kerosene and then downstairs to get my lunch. I brought it back upstairs. I was a little surprised in a bad way to see that K hadn’t touched her lunch. That is getting to be a thing. She’s eating so much fruit, someone keeps giving her fruit to eat. Her thing is to leave all the peel and garbage from it for ME to clean up. Gee, thanks.


I ate my lunch and watched another episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. It was okay. I dunno. I guess I’m not far enough in the series to get all the love for it. It’s only okay in my opinion at the moment. 


I worked more on my column and got it to where I could finish it tomorrow. I watched the news and then a bit later, F called to say he was on his way.


I went downstairs to get a start on dinner. Tonight I air-fried some French fries, and also some smokies from Alberta. I steamed some broccoli and we had that with salad and potato salad. Dinner was good, but the smokies were so hard to eat! The skin was hard. Poor K had a really hard time. I got a knife from the kitchen and got F to cut his and then his mother’s for her. That helped, but I do think they were a bit tough for her. They were nice, but I’m sad to say I wouldn’t buy the smokies again as they shouldn’t be that difficult to eat!


After we finished dinner I cleared the table and did the dishes. They weren’t too bad tonight as I did the smokies in the air fryer with the fries, so I only used one cooking thing. 


I had to do the garbage in the kitchen too as tomorrow is burnable garbage day. There was so much. On the weekend F made a ton of garbage this week. I don’t know if it was just him, I think his mother threw a lot of stuff out too. I’m not sure why or how!


After I finished, I left the bags in the genkan and went upstairs. I relaxed for a bit and basically finished my column. I still have to proofread it and add the outro but I think it’s nearly ready to send in to the Journal Editor. Woot. 


F came upstairs as I was getting ready to go downstairs to take a shower. I dropped off K’s breakfast for her in the kitchen. When my shower was over I came back upstairs and watched Grey’s Anatomy. It was mostly about the residents again, it was a good episode. 


And that’s about it. I asked F if he’d like to make nabe on Friday night if he isn’t too tired. We bought a curry soup a few weeks ago and it has a recipe on the back. I think that would be fun to have if he’s okay with it. He said it would be fine, fingers crossed that it really is.


Until tomorrow….
