Tuesday - Warmish but windy

I woke up this morning really early for me. F had already left…it was before 7 am. He told me later that he’d gone to his favourite onsen. I thought that he might have gone there. 

I went back to bed and fell asleep after a few videos on my phone. Later on, I dragged myself out of bed. I dressed and sorted my laundry. I took a couple of loads downstairs and started washing it. I measured out my yogurt and then brought the scales upstairs to weigh my cereal. I ate breakfast and hung up my laundry when it was done.  

I went downstairs to make my lunch around 3. While I was in the kitchen, I set up dinner to marinate as well. I put some pork in a mix of soy sauce and garlic. 

Later on in the day I watched an episode of Matlock and then the rest of the US news. Head shake. 

F called after 5:30 to say he was on his way back to the house. I went downstairs after I changed and took the kerosene tank with me. I filled up the kerosene tank and left it on the stairs. I washed up and went into the kitchen to get a start on dinner. F arrived sometime around then and took the empty tanks out to the car. He also took the full tank upstairs, yay! 

I got busy with dinner. Tonight we had garlic-soy sauce sautéd pork, salad, rice, tuna & macaroni salad, kabocha and some gyoza too. It was pretty good and most of it disappeared!

After dinner I cleared the table, washed the dishes and listened to my podcasts. Then, I went upstairs and watched Project Runway. They do a really weird things these days, they don’t tell you who is out until the next episode. I don’t like that. They are also doing group projects which are boring! And, I know I’m not supposed to comment about people’s bodies but Heidi was wearing a jacket that was open in the front and it looked like she might fall out of it…she wasn’t wearing a regular bra at all! Weird. 

I took a shower tonight and then came back upstairs and watched FBI: Most Wanted. It was an odd one. 

So, that is about that. I’ve been working on my end of day stuff and planning on going to bed soonish. Tomorrow I am hoping to go out and have lunch and then go to the cinema to see a movie. If I oversleep I won’t be able to do that! Yikes. Cross your fingers for me that I’ll get up on time to catch the bus!

Come back later if you like and hear all about my days, until tomorrow….
