Friday - Rainy, Hail, Thunder and Rain


I went to bed quite late again last night. F woke up, which is sad. I don’t know why he can’t just go back to sleep afterwards. He does, but it takes him a while. This morning I woke up to my alarm and went downstairs. I sorted my laundry when I came back and then I went back to bed for a while. It was so dark outside and my alarms were so quiet that I didn’t hear them and I didn’t wake up until I heard some low music coming from my phone. I dragged myself out of bed finally. 


I picked up my breakfast and then came back to the room. I ate and then watched YouTube and the news. Same as usual! I did a final read-through of my column and got it sent off to the editor. Yay.


Around 2 pm I took my laundry downstairs and put it in the washer. I went back upstairs and took down my dry stuff. I went downstairs a little late to make my lunch, but I timed it so that my laundry was ready to take out. 


I came upstairs with my bagel, my leftovers from yesterday and my salad and watched So Help Me Todd. It was rather cute today. The mother was representing a man injured in a plane crash and the son had major car problems! 


F called me after 5:30 and we talked about his shopping needs! He was on his way back, so a bit later I went downstairs and washed my dishes. I also washed the nabe for him and then he came back. He wanted to start work while he was still in his uniform, but I suggested that he go upstairs and change first. I reminded him that our soup was a curry soup and if it spilled on his uniform it might not come out. No one wants a brownish stain on their clothes!


When F came back, I left the kitchen after asking him if he wanted me to do anything for him. He said no, so off I went. Woot. And then I did something rather crazy. I posted a message on my women’s group asking them if anyone would like to take part in a Christmas Card exchange. And…now I think I’m leading one! What was I thinking?  I’m hoping it’ll be fine!


F called me down and I went to have dinner. Now, I don’t want to complain, but I got out my own chopsticks and I supplied the table with glasses and tea. How was the nabe? Really good! It was so nice to have a nabe with a taste! It also didn’t have all the usual ingredients, which I appreciated too. I like F’s nabe most of the time, but this one had kabocha and wieners and broccoli in it too. Yum. After dinner, I even gave F a hand to take things to the kitchen. I actually said to him that I helped him a lot more than he ever helped me!


I went upstairs and worked on my computer for a while. I decided that I’d lead the card exchange so did some investigating on how to do it. Then I went to take a shower. 


When I came back from my shower I learned how to make a Google document and then I uploaded it to the group. One person besides me has used it, so I think it works. Woot!


I had planned to watch something on the Fire Stick tonight, but I didn’t. I was too busy with Google and trying to sort things out. Oh well, it is good to learn something new at least!


So, that’s it for me for today. Come back later if you like and hear all about my Saturday. Until tomorrow….
