Tuesday - Terribly hot and sunny


Last night before going to bed, I started to go downstairs. I heard K downstairs so I waited for a few minutes for her to go back to bed, but she didn’t. She had left the living room door open and the TV was on and blaring away with sumo on it. It was rather weird. She finally went back to the living room so I flipped the switch on the stairs and turned on the light. When I got downstairs there were no lights on in the living room and no TV noises either. 


I came back upstairs and went to bed. I fell asleep fairly soon after that. I woke up in the morning when I heard F get a little upset. He’d forgotten to set his alarm before bed and had overslept. He hurriedly got dressed and then left the house. I fell back asleep but did wake up when my alarm went off!


I went downstairs and then I went back up to the room. I gave myself a pedicure and then went back to sleep. I dragged myself out of bed a couple of hours later.


I went downstairs and put the meat for dinner in a marinade and then went back upstairs. I sorted laundry and then I brought two loads worth downstairs to wash.  I got them both done and hung up in my room. I had my breakfast and then I took a nap. I was really tired, it was hot and I had time. I snoozed for around an hour. 


When I woke up, I went downstairs and made my lunch. I brought it up to the room to eat. I watched an episode of One Mississippi while I ate too.


After 5:30 F called to say he was on his way back to the house so I went downstairs. I did my dishes and then got a start on dinner. 


Tonight I made steamed carrots in the microwave and coro-coro steak in the air fryer. I also had used part of an onion on Thursday so I threw the rest of it in the air fryer tonight. I got dinner ready almost on time but F took ages to come downstairs. 


Dinner was good though!


After dinner I did the dishes and listened to a couple of podcasts, particularly the CBC news and then Abroad in Japan. 


F and I went out to the Mina Grocery store. I went in and did the shopping. I was looking at bean sprouts of all things when someone came close to me and started speaking. It was F! He’d come in to buy his adult beverage and scared me silly. I really jumped when he did that. It was fine!


I did discover afterwards that I had forgotten to buy my cheese slices and there was something else, but it’ll be okay. I bought the groceries and then came back to the car.


F and I came back to the house and I put away the groceries. I headed upstairs then and got ready to watch Law & Order at 11pm. It was fine.


And that was about it for my day. Tomorrow I have to get started on my column and if I have time, I’ll try and write to my best friend!


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

I really liked One Mississippi. Too bad they got canceled after only two seasons. Have you watched any more Breaking Bad? It was filmed in my hometown and a friend worked on the series but I only watched a couple of seasons because it was a bit too intense for me!

Stay cool in that awful hit and humid weather!

I'm enjoying One Mississippi too. I'm in the second season now. I usually watch it when I'm a bit low on time as it's only 30 minutes. I've watched about 4 episode of Breaking Bad I think. I like it and I'm planning on watching more. My streaming service has also started running the next season of Matlock and Elsbeth so I have about three shows that I'm juggling for lunch time! It all depends on what kind of mood I'm in and if I need something fun or can handle something serious!

That's cool that BB was filmed in your hometown.

Anytime I watch a US show that is actually filmed in Canada I get excited when I see the bank I used to work for. It was the big Green one, I think they're huge in the US now too.

Today is a cooler day, it's supposed to rain so I'm glad about that.

Thanks for commenting and reading...
