 Thursday - Sunny and warm

I woke up early again. I didn’t hear F leave, he’d gone early to go to an onsen. I went downstairs, returned to my bed and watched a few videos before falling asleep again. 

I woke up rather late this morning, but got up and went downstairs to make my breakfast. I brought it upstairs to eat and watch some YouTube. 

During the afternoon I worked on my column again. I ended up reworking a whole big part of it, but I think it’ll be better this way. I’m going to try and send it in tomorrow so I have to get it done!

I made my lunch a bit early for a change. I brought it upstairs to eat and today watched an episode of Magpie Murders. I love Lesley Manville. She’s such a talented actress. It’s a murder mystery within a murder mystery and it is working rather well. 

I watched the news at 4 pm and then went downstairs to start dinner around 5:30. F phoned to say he was coming back around 5:45 or so. He didn’t have much time once he arrived. He had to do a quick change and then his taxi was booked for 6:15 and it came on time. We had time for a quick hug before he left for his work party.

I got stuck into dinner prep and had dinner on the table around 7 pm. Tonight K and I had premade hamburgers from the store plus French Fries, salad, cucumber pickle and potato salad. Most of the food disappeared, so that was good. K seemed to enjoy herself at dinner and that was good.

I went to the kitchen when we finished and did the dishes. It didn’t take as long as usual, but I still was able to listen to a couple of podcasts. The news from Canada was sad. There are forest fires again and towns are being evacuated. Sigh. 

I said good night to K and I went upstairs. I spent time on my computer and I got a text from F saying that he was just waiting for a taxi to come back to the house. 

F came back around 10pm and made himself some ramen! Same old thing. I relaxed for a while and then at 11pm I watched Yellowstone. It was a good episode tonight, as they usually are. 

Since midnight, F has been sleeping and I’ve been on my computer as usual. 

Tomorrow I’ll be making dinner again and hopefully doing some laundry. I also have to finish and send in my column. Wish me luck with everything!

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