Wednesday - Warm and sunny, rainy at night


I woke up a bit early this morning. I went downstairs and checked out the snow outside. There wasn’t any on the path, but near the door, there was a ton. The snow had fallen off the roof and was just outside the front door. Sigh. 


I went back to bed!


I got up a bit early, dressed, and then went out to shovel the snow. There was a lot. I worked for ages and finally got the snow cleared up by the door. Then, a big machine came down our side road and left a lovely wall of snow in front of our parking area. Hurray! I spent quite a bit of time clearing that area too. It was hard as there is just no place to put the snow. I had to try and put it up on the top of the other piles, but it was already so darn high. 


Some of the snow off the roof. 

The "rocky-looking" wall of snow, plus the side road and snow.

I went in when I finished and was surprised that I had been outside for more than an hour. I got my breakfast and took it upstairs. I had breakfast and watched last night’s episode of Project Runway. I wish I could enjoy it a bit more than I am.


I went downstairs around 3 to get my lunch and brought it upstairs again to eat. I watched the next episode of The Good Fight. It’s all about the January 6th event so it was quite interesting. 


F called after 5:15 and then I went downstairs a bit later. I did the dishes and started getting ready for cooking dinner. F came back from work and we had a nice reunion. I got on with cooking and then setting the table. I noticed that the lights on the rice cooker weren’t on so I checked it out. The plug had nearly come out of the wall socket. I texted F to let him know. I was rather worried that the rice wouldn’t be good. F came down and looked at it. He said it was okay, but I told him that he and his mother could eat it, I wouldn’t. He threw one of his stupid tantrums and refused to eat with us. He went back upstairs and that was that.


I cleared his plate off the table and got on with dinner. K did ask where F was, but was okay with eating dinner. We had a nice meal. We had chicken drumsticks, potato salad, salad, and galettes. Everything was very nice. 


After we ate, I washed the dishes as usual and put everything away. I was trying to say goodnight to K when I was finished, just to have the kerosene heater announce that it was empty! I filled it up for her and restarted it. I went upstairs.


I ignored F completely. He was in bed with the quilt up to his chin, but the lights were on and he had his phone in his hand. I started the heater and watched some YouTube and just relaxed for a while. I went downstairs at 10:30 or so. F was in the kitchen making his dinner so I just kept ignoring him. 


I had my shower, but came out when someone kept using the hot water so I was getting a bit cold at times. I went back upstairs and watched The Irrational at 11pm. 


After midnight, F came over to me and gave me my birthday present! He got me a very nice little blue handbag. I think I’d use it for special dress up occasions when my purse/backpack style isn’t appropriate. We kissed and made up, and then talked for an hour or so about different things. He filled up our kerosene heater’s tank for me too. 


So, tomorrow we’re going to have a nice dinner out. F has the day off and I’m hoping we’ll go and see a movie in the morning. I’m not sure what we’ll do in the afternoon, but dinner is planned. 


I’m not sure if I’ll update tomorrow night. I might like to spend the night relaxing! Don’t miss me too much. 


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