Friday - Warm and sunny
I think F did wake me up this morning but it wasn’t a big deal. I said hello to him as he was leaving and then went back to sleep. I did wake up about half an hour before my alarm. I went downstairs and then came back up to the room. I started my waterpot, sorted out my clothes for the day and then went back to sleep. I did watch a few videos first and today found a couple that were quite interesting! One got quite political in a round about way!
I got up later and dressed, then went downstairs and made my breakfast. I brought it upstairs to the room and ate. After I finished eating, I worked on my column. I actually rewrote a bunch of it as it wasn’t working for me. I got it close to being finished and then decided I had to put in a load of laundry and did that.
At lunch time, I went downstairs and put my lunch together. I came back upstairs and ate lunch and watched an episode of Major Crimes. After I finished eating, I watched the news and finished my column. I sent it into the editor. Done for now. Woot!
F called a bit after 5 and I went downstairs around 5:30 to get a start on dinner. I washed my dishes first and then started to cook. Tonight I was doing my usual Friday night pasta, but I added a few extras tonight. I made cucumber pickle again, plus a zucchini-mushroom sauté thing. That took a bit of time to make but did taste very nice.
I got dinner on the table a few minutes after 7pm and we all seemed to enjoy it. We had some salad and smoked duck breast with the pasta too and it was very nice. I used a lemon and olive oil sauce from the store and it was very nice. It was quite light.
After dinner I did the dishes and listened to my podcasts. After the Canadian news, I listened to half of Kermode and Mayo’s movie podcast. I really enjoy them.
I went upstairs and relaxed for a while. I watched a bit of YouTube and then watched Rebus on TV. Some of it was a bit hard to understand due to the broad Scots. I used to have a Scottish accent so it makes me a bit sad, but oh well.
Something that also is making me a bit sad is that my sister and her husband are going back to Canada tomorrow. I haven’t seen them in over a week, but it was special having them in the same country as me. I was following my sister’s photos on line. They went to a lot of places that I haven’t been to at all. I hope that someday F and I can do more travelling in Japan but we aren’t able to leave K for very long so it won’t be possible for a while.
I took a shower after Rebus and then came back upstairs and got stuck into my usual internet things. I’m just about finished though!
Tomorrow K is off to her Day Service and I have a dentist appointment in the afternoon. Hopefully I’ll be getting my permanent crown and then I’ll be done for a while. Fingers crossed. I don’t think we’ll be able to see a movie tomorrow because of timing, but I’m hoping we might go on Sunday.
Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
