Monday - Clear and sunny, cool

I woke up this morning when F’s alarm clock went off. F was long gone! I turned it off and didn’t grump too much. I fell back asleep until MY alarm went off and then I got up and went downstairs. I came back to the room and went back to bed as I often do these days. I fell asleep after that. I woke up a few times, but it wasn’t until my alarm started playing music that I woke up.

I got up, got my breakfast downstairs and then came upstairs to eat. I watched the news and some YouTube, then wrote a few Christmas cards.

I had lunch a good bit later, I watched an episode of Major Crimes while I did that and then saw the rest of the news. 

F phoned after 5:30 and said he was on his way. I went downstairs and got started on dinner. I tried to be early, but I wasn’t. Tonight I did everything for dinner by scratch I’d say. I made a veggie roast in the air fryer, and I put in some wieners from Costco too. I washed salad greens, prepared some radishes and plated some kimchi that I got at Costco as well. I also cooked some broccoli that was leftover from F’s nabe on Friday. Everything was great, but it took a bit of a long time to prepare. We even had some cut pineapple for dessert afterwards. It was really nice. 

I cleared the table and got started on the dishes. It took a while, but I got it done. After I finished, I tidied up the kitchen and went upstairs. 

After 10:20 I came back downstairs again so that I could take a shower. I really needed one. It was a stressful weekend.

I came back upstairs and because I was a bit late getting back, watched an episode of Shrinking from AppleTV. It was great. Harrison Ford is surprisingly funny!

I turned off the TV at midnight, and F went to bed. I think he’s sleeping. The problem is that he keeps waking up when I come to bed. I don’t want him to do that. I’m not trying to make noise, it’s just the house is creaky!

Anyway, that’s it for me. Tomorrow I’m going to do laundry and I hope to get out my Christmas tree. I’m not quite in the mood yet. Maybe putting up my tree will help, but I’m not sure. 

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