Thursday - Warm and cloudy,slightly cooler than usual.
I didn’t wake up early this morning. I was very surprised about that! I woke up when my first alarm went off. I went downstairs and then came back to bed. I watched one or two videos and then had another snooze, but did get myself out of bed in a goodly time.
I got dressed, had a quick breakfast and found my backpack and got it ready. Then, I left the house around 11:30 and walked quickly to the bus stop. I checked how soon the bus was going to be today and it was only two minutes late. Not bad at all.
It arrived and I got on. I rode the bus all the way to S-Mall. I took some money out of the bank machine and then went into the hotel. I had decided I’d have the hotel’s daily lunch if it was still available. Well, before I went to the washroom it was but when i came out, it was sold out!
I ended up going to Pizza Hut Express and having their Hut Melts, the bacon and cheese one. It doesn’t have any tomato sauce on it. It was quite nice if a little small. After my lunch I did a quick tour of the hundred yen shop. I didn’t buy anything there, and then when it got closer to my appointment time, I walked over to my hair stylist’s salon and had my hair cut.
As usual, my stylist did a great job and soon the floor of the salon was covered in white hair! I enjoyed seeing her again and after having my hair washed and dried, I happily paid for my haircut. My head feels so much lighter now!
I went to the nearby grocery store and picked up a few things for myself. I went back to the mall and visited the hundred yen shop again. This time I did buy a few things, but not too much! I got another pair of knitting needles and a pair of mitts to use with hand cream. I’ve had gloves before, but mitts seem like a better idea in a way.
I went downstairs and decided to have an ice cream at Baskin-Robbins. They gave me a sample of one and I thought I’d try it with my usual favourite, Jamoca Almond Fudge. It was a nice combo. While I was eating my ice cream, I sent F a message and asked if he’d pick me up after work. If he couldn’t, I could still catch a bus back. He texted me and said that he didn’t have to work late and then that he could pick me up.
A bit later, I went to Doutor and bought myself a nice big iced coffee and had a seat to wait for F. However, when he phoned me to say he was finished work, he said he wasn’t finished work and he couldn’t pick me up as he had an emergency trip to Yamagata city. Oops. He asked me if I could still take the bus and of course I couldn’t. There weren’t any more buses that went near our house.
I told him I could take a taxi but he asked me to wait a few minutes. I was fine as I hadn’t finished my coffee yet anyway. He suggested I wait a few minutes and he’d try to work something out.
He called me back and said that he’d pick me up on his way to Yamagata and drop me at the house. Yay. He said that he’d be about 15-20 minutes so I finished my drink and then went outside to the mall’s door.
Sure enough, F showed up and picked me up. He drove me to the house and dropped me off. The roads were very busy as it was rush hour as well. He dropped me and then went on his way.
I went into the house and came upstairs. I changed and then went downstairs again and into the kitchen. I got started on dinner. Dinner was hamburgers and fries with some salad, and potato salad. I had to make two plates tonight. I needed plates for F (I made two, one for hot food and one for cold) and one for K’s lunch tomorrow.
When dinner was nearly ready, I called K and got her up. She came to eat dinner but I had to try and tell her that F was still working. I told her that he would be back around 10 pm. We ate our dinner and it was quite nice I think.
I did dishes after we ate, but I didn’t wash my air fryer. I thought I’d use that to heat up F’s dinner.
When I finished the dishes, I put them away and let K know that I was going upstairs. I think she stayed downstairs watching TV the whole time!
I went upstairs and relaxed. I played some games on my computer and tried to watch the news from earlier in the way. However, I hadn’t recorded it. I had recorded curling. ACK! I may be Canadian, but I don’t like curling at all.
F called around 9:30 and was on his way to the grocery store. I had asked him to pick up a few things for tomorrow. He called to find out what I wanted. He also said he’d call me from the grocery store if he forgot anything. He did.
He picked up some salad for dinner and a protein source. Yay. He got something for his and K’s breakfast and a treat or two for himself.
I went downstairs and started heating up his food. I did use my air fryer and it worked really well. It made the fries super crispy.
F arrived and it was lovely to see him again. I brought out the food for him and he ate his dinner. K had a drink with him and I popped between the living room and the kitchen as well. I washed the newest dishes and then went upstairs to watch The Rookie.
F came upstairs a while later and went to bed fairly soon afterwards. Not a bad thing.
And that’s about it for my day. It was good, but I think I need a day off to recover! Oh, and F let me know that he’s taken Tuesday off work. Sigh. I hope he makes some plans for it because I’m not sure what we’ll end up doing!
Come back later if you like and hear all about my Friday. Until tomorrow….
