Monday - Cloudy and cool


I woke up normally this morning, thank goodness! F had already left for work  when my alarm went off. I went downstairs and then came back to bed. I watched a few videos on my phone before snoozing again. I did oversleep a bit, but I wasn’t too upset about it. 


I finally dragged myself out of bed and dressed. I went downstairs and put my breakfast together and brought it upstairs. I ate and watched a few YouTube videos. I got a bit behind last week and now I’m trying to catch up!


In the afternoon I remembered that I should do some laundry, so I sorted what was in my basket and took a load downstairs. I also took down fresh towels for the kitchen and bathroom and a bottle to bring up some water for my waterpot. A while later I went downstairs to make my lunch and then I brought up my clean laundry to hang upstairs. 


During my lunch time I watched last week’s episode of FBI: International. It ended with a cliff hanger. I deleted the episode from my DVR and accidentally deleted Saturday’s episode of Lockerbie. Darn! Luckily it’ll repeat tomorrow night so I have already set the DVR to re-record it!


F called me around 5:30 to say he was on his way back so I went downstairs a bit before 6 to start dinner. Tonight I did a stir-fry with a couple of bags of prepared veggies. I added in a few more and some meat too. I also made some cucumber pickle tonight from scratch and the salad was a local baby leaf mix.


I was a little late getting dinner on the table, but it was finally done. I called F down and started serving K some dinner. Dinner was quite good. I liked the stir-fry. I’m not sure if everyone else did or not, but all the cucumber disappeared.


I got to do the dishes afterwards and put everything away. I listened to the news from Canada and then my movie review show from last week. I enjoyed that. 


I said goodnight to K and then went upstairs. I watched a few videos and then I went downstairs to take a shower. K was still up and popped her head into the bathroom to say goodnight again! Luckily I was just brushing my teeth and I hadn’t disrobed yet!


After my shower, I made myself some popcorn and then went upstairs. I watched an episode of The Great British Sewing Bee and enjoyed that. 


And that’s about it for my day. I didn’t work on my column unfortunately, but I’ve decided to scale something down in order to get my column finished. Hopefully I’ll be able to work on something another time. 


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