Saturday - Cold and snowy
Today turned out to be a good day. Woot.
I got up this morning quite early, and then went back to bed. F got himself up and made K her breakfast and then took her off to the Daycare.
I dragged myself out of bed and then went downstairs. I found F. He was hard at work fixing the shogi (paper screens) again. I told him there was no hurry so I went upstairs again and got dressed. I waited for him to come up and he offered to take me out for lunch. Unfortunately, his idea was to go to a Japanese restaurant. I didn’t want to go for noodles, but since I hadn’t let him pick a place for a while I said it was okay. And…it was. I had planned to wear one of my new shirts, but I just couldn’t do that for a noodle restaurant.
We got to the restaurant, got our usual table and had a nice meal. F had soba, I had an udon nabe and we shared an order of tempura.
After our lunch, we went over to Komeda and got a table. We went in and had a new drink, a cafe chocola. It was basically a mix of coffee and chocolate. I enjoyed it a lot, but it was a bit sweet.
After our break, we went back to the house. I shovelled a little bit of snow so that K would be able to get in easily when she got back.
We spent quite a while in the house. F did more of his shogi work, K came back and then F came upstairs and asked what I wanted to do. We had talked about going to see a movie, so he decided that he’d make dinner for K. He did that and then we went out.
We went to Kappa Sushi for dinner. We didn’t eat a huge amount which was nice. F tends to over-order a lot of stuff that I don’t really want. Tonight he didn’t.
After dinner, we scooted over to Machinaka Kinema and went to see Billy Elliot. I had seen it a couple of months ago in Tendo and loved it. I had no idea it was coming to Tsuruoka. It’s a digital remaster, so it looks lovely to watch. F had never seen it before! I am quite surprised. As I expected, he loved it.
When we left the movie we went to the 24-hour grocery store. F wanted some mikan for K and I wanted some snacks. We went around the store and it was fine. F got a lot of stuff that I wouldn’t have bothered with, but that’s okay.
We came back to the house but it was quite late. It was after 11pm. F put away the groceries and also was nice enough to fill up the kerosene tank in our room.
I’ve spent most of the night watching YouTube and doing various internet things. It was quiet but nice.
I’m not sure what we’ll be getting up to tomorrow. I’m hoping things will go well though. Come back a bit later and find out about our Sunday.
Until tomorrow….
