Friday - Sunny, coldish and finally rain


I woke up this morning and F was sitting up in bed with his computer. Sigh. I rolled over and went back to sleep. When I woke up next time, it was just before my alarm and I went downstairs. I came back to bed and went back to sleep for a bit. I got up later and dressed. I went downstairs.


I checked the mail and I got two Christmas cards in the mail today. Yay. I also checked outside. There was a little snow on the steps, so I just went outside in my crocs and moved the snow. It didn’t take long and it wasn’t that cold, so I was fine. After that, I put my breakfast together and took it upstairs to eat.


Around 1 I took a load of laundry downstairs and put it in. I hung it up in the room later and started another one. I went downstairs to get my lunch and before I did that, I got the laundry out of the machine. I went back upstairs to eat and hang up my laundry.


As I didn’t have a full hour to watch a programme during my lunch, I decided to watch a new one, The Sticky. I watched the first episode and it was fun. 


After 5pm F called to say he was on his way back. I reminded him that he might want to buy something for K’s meals this weekend. He said he would. 


I went downstairs and got ready to cook dinner. Tonight I did my usual Friday dinner of pasta. With it I served a salad and some bacon and mushroom fried together. I chopped up the bacon and mushroom into small pieces and fried them. It worked really well. F doesn’t like eringi mushrooms, but I do. I've heard that They are often used as a meat substitute, so chopping them and frying them with the bacon meant they stretched the meat and tasted a little bacony. 


After dinner, I did the dishes and they went quite quickly. I listened to my movie podcasts too so I was very entertained as well. 


I went upstairs when I finished and relaxed for a bit. I took a shower around 10:30. When I came back upstairs, I ended up having a texting session with my sister. She had sent me something via Amazon for Christmas. F had found the box outside when he came back from work tonight. He brought in a huge box and I thought it was something he had brought from work! 


We texted for a while and then I told her I had to go so I could watch a bit of TV! F goes to bed around midnight usually, so I wanted not to have the TV on late. 


Since I again didn’t have much time, I decided to watch the second episode of The Sticky. It was fun and the plot is thickening!


I turned off the TV, went on to YouTube and started doing my normal end-of-day things. And now, you are up to date! 


I’m not sure what we’ll be getting up to tomorrow. F wants to do work around the house and we’re supposed to have a meeting with K’s care manager. I’m not looking forward to that. 


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