Overspill....

 Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 365-page book. Write a good one - Brad Paisley
New Year's Eve
Welcome to my Saturday Fun!
We were early to do today's Heardles.
Heardle 60s.
My answers:
Breakfast and Brew.
We listened to "The Sounds of the 60s"
UK Top 3 Singles from 1964 
3:
Val Doonican - Walk Tall
2:
Petula Clark - Downtown
1:
The Beatles - I Feel Fine 
Now to put on the thermal vest.
Out to visit some charity shops and to do food shopping.
First stop was to collect some plastic boxes from Argos.
Nice car in the car park↓
Looked in 3 charity shops before Argos.
Pity they weren't my size :(
I did however pick up 2 more minions!
Picked up boxes from Argos.
Now onto to Lidl to do the food shop.
Pity they weren't in my size ↑
We did the shopping.
Back home to unload it all.
Light lunch.
Now to start making room for everything.
Found the Return Back to Work Form from my old lollipop job from 4/7 2018.
I just returned to work after having 8 months off due to my foot injury.
I was only back to work for 2 weeks.
As I asked on the form,
Can I come back in September?
I found out sometime soon after I broke up for the 6 weeks holidays, I was up for redundancy.
My last day was Aug 31st.
Pity one arm don't talk to the other leg and they paid me for September. So after they clawed back the overpayment, I was left with £100 redundancy money! 
More moving about in the Living room!
We ran out of room to put the DVDs.
We made room on top of hubby's wardrobe!
All the minions were put together.
After all this moving about,
Time for a stiff drink!
Nice...
We had some party food to go along with it.
Quick look in the newspaper:
US No.1 on this day in 1966:
The Monkees - I'm A Believer
We caught up Gordon...
I wasn't going to keep awake up to midnight.
I kept yawning....
Off to bed I went.
I wished my hubby a Happy New Year.
(As we are going travelling alot in 2023.
Some of the places we are going to are:
 Las Vegas, Australia, and going on the train to Scotland in 2023)
Wishing you all a Happy New Year!

Hubby is hiring a van and taking our younger son to collect somethings from his late dad's house.
I meanwhile am going for coffee and yak!
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
I got the newspaper on the way.
Looked in Hobbycraft.
Now for some coffee, chat and nibble.
I had a good chat.
One good thing about visiting,
I didn't buy nothing at all!
Said goodbye to my friend and went home.
Hubby had come back with loads of stuff.
While he went back for more things.
I put the rug down in our living room!
Now to add the coffee table!
I started on with the tea, while hubby returned the Hire van.
Gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 when he came back.

Never Have Enough!

The worst words in the English language are, "We have to talk."
Either that or, "Whose bra is this?" - Jerry Seinfeld
 Welcome to my amazing Thursday 😍
We were up early to do the Heardles.
Heardle 60s:
My answers:
Now for Breakfast and Brew.
Then on goes the thermal vest.
UPS dropped off my nice order...
Going to smell nice wearing this 😊
Now out to pick up my water filter I had delivered at a drop point.
Tried to park in Dunelm.
No chance!
Rammed solid.
Parked where my parcel was delivered.
The Sales Assistant came over to admire my coat.
I did tell it the buttons weren't included.
"Didn't it show it in the pictures of the coat before you bought it?" She said.
"I didn't really notice no buttons, to be honest," I replied.
Then she said,"You could make a belt to go with it!"
I said "Thank you for that great idea, I will!"
Put my parcel in the boot and carried onto Dunelm. Everyone was circling around the car park for a space.
Got two of them, but I call them veggie racks!
We had a quick coffee while we were there.
The fake faux pom poms were knocked down to £1 for large ones. All of them went in my basket!
This was my view from the coffee shop↓
I went to pay for my order.
The Sales Assistant commented on all my pom poms..
"I see you have bought them all!"
I replied, "I need them to make things with!".
She collected my on-line order and found I had bought some more Pom Poms!
Walked back to Sexy Beast.
Back home we went.
Time for a light lunch...
Hubby is bringing some things back tomorrow from his late dad's house in a hired van.
So we spent all afternoon sorting out the house when the things are going......
Phew!
Then I got on with the tea....
Tea is served!
Yum.
Quick look into the newspaper.
US No.1 on this day in 1973:
Jim Croce - Time In a Bottle 
Then we watched Top of the Pops from 1986
 
 
 
 
Sleep Tea Time.
Friday Feeling is back tomorrow 🎈
