Monday - Warm and Sunny
Happy Thanksgiving!
I woke up this morning, went downstairs. I came back to bed and F went downstairs, I think to make breakfast for K and himself. I was going to go back to sleep right away, but I noticed my bestie in Canada had texted me. We were able to have a little chat for a few minutes. It was lovely to talk to her for a bit.
I went back to sleep for a bit but around 10:30 F came back in the room and said that he’d made a mistake about the memorial service for his uncle. He’d thought it was in the afternoon, but it was on at 10:30. Yes, right now! He quickly got changed into his suit and I helped a little bit. He left with his mother and I snoozed on. I did get up soon after. I dressed and went downstairs and made myself some breakfast.
F came back just as I was starting to eat my breakfast. They’d missed most of the ceremony and got there just at the end. Of course, they’d brought back a couple of bentos which I call Funeral Food. In exchange for some money and going to the ceremony you receive some food! It’s all very fancy, lots of fish and shrimp and that kind of thing. I’m not very fond of it if I’m honest. F wanted me to come down and eat, but I still had my breakfast. I ate that first and then went down a few minutes later to see that a lot of the food had already been demolished! Oh well. I didn’t care that much.
After lunch I gave F a hand with the dishes and then went back upstairs. F had a bit of a nap in the afternoon and I spent time on my computer.
Around 5:30 or so we went out to do the grocery shopping. F decided to give K the rest of the Funeral food and made her a plate. We went out to get the shopping and I managed to keep us under budget today. Yay for that. We brought the food back to the house and I put it away.
A few minutes later, F and I went out to have our dinner. I had suggested China House. We were able to get a table and had a good meal there. I had my favourite mapo-dofu and F had the chahan set…he had fried rice and ramen. He actually liked it so that was good!
After our meal we just came back to the house. We came upstairs and I watched some YouTube. After a bit I took a shower and then came back upstairs. F was asleep when I came back.
I put on a show on the Fire Stick, Cardinal. It’s a detective show from Canada, set in northern Ontario. It was quite good. There are four seasons of it I think.
After the show, I turned off the TV and watched some YouTube while I did my usual nighttime things. I wrote some emails, both to my sister and my bestie…And now I’m done.
I’m not sure what I’ll get up to tomorrow. I’ll be cooking again and probably doing a bit of laundry. It never stops!
Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
