Off It Goes!

I've got hair in my mouth.That takes me back - Lily Savage
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
I had a nice warm hug.
Brew with breakfast.
As hubby had a day off, we both cuddled each other.
I then got up, dressed.
(I left hubby in bed.)
I put on the coffee machine. 
Now to get the newspaper and next door's magazine.
I got back, and take up a cup of coffee to Sleeping Beauty upstairs.
Then I have my much needed coffee.
I wrote yesterday's blog post.
Then it was time to have my hair cut.
(Getting far too long)
I had a good natter in the hairdressers...
Felt 2 stone had been lifted off my head!
Then into Co-op for some supplies.
Then back home for lunch.
Now to watch some telly!
We finished watching series 3 of Kenny Everett.
(I do hope they reshow series 4)
(After series 4 he moved to BBC)
Now for some more music...
Tea time.
Time for a bit of Netflix
We watched two episodes:
1:Hoop Schemes
A gambler and players involved in a 1994 Arizona State basketball point-shaving describe how and why they plotted to fix games for a payoff.
2:Need for Weed.
Hippie and small-time pot dealer Randy Lanier funds his passion for auto racing by taking his weed racket to new heights.
I had a look in today's newspaper.
"Rebel Without a Cause", directed by Nicholas Ray, starring James Dean and Natalie Wood, is released in 1955.
Sleep Tea time.
Off to a very warm Teddy Bed!

Trying To Brake Like A Flintstone!

Nobody works as hard for their money as the person who marries it - Elbert Hubbard
Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
This week is going to be fun with me dodging the rain showers.....while doing my lollipop job 🍭
Warm hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
I gets up the kids ready for school.
I chose not to wear the sexy lumo trousers, as rain wasn't coming in until the afternoon.
I gave out those wet sloppy 💋💋💋
Then out I go..
Those big big sunglasses came out once more.
It was a bit quiet on the roads.
I still wore my winter coat and winter coat.
Tree pic.
This is where the fun starts....
Some teenagers were just walking across the road into moving traffic and not using me!
Great!
The woman driver who has failed to stop in the mornings, and found out why she is not stopping!
She was coming up the High Street, when I was in the middle of the road.
She attempted to come to a stop...
The noise of screeching metal to metal was so loud, she just about stopped.
(No brake pads to rely on!)
I'm surprised she didn't use her feet to stop the car!
I didn't see the lambo today :(
Some car drivers put their hand up when they go under my lollypop stick....
I might have to add blue lights and music to my lollipop stick, car drivers might STOP!
I finished just about in one piece.
Back home.
Quick coffee with apple.
Then it's time to load up Henry into Sexy Beast.
Off to do some more cleaning...
It being so warm, I was on the water not coffee.
Once I finished and on the way back home.
The rain started!
I had some hot soup for lunch.
I was in half a mind to wear my sexy lumo trousers for the second part of doing my lollipop job 🍭
Rain was forecasted all afternoon.
I wasn't going to risk getting wet.
So on they went.
Blue skies everywhere.
Until the last ten minutes it was sunshine.
Then the rain came down until I finished!
I finished in one piece but wet!
I chatted to my friend without his dog, as his dog doesn't like the rain.
I said goodbye to my friend and back home I go.
The muffins my son made in his cooking lesson at school↓
Quick coffee with crumpets.
Now back out with some great 70s hits..
I get in.
I have a blue bucket and blue mop head.
But no pole to attach the mop head!
Great!
 The polish also was delivered.
No Method polish either!
I hope this smells nice or I will get it in the neck on Friday after I have used it polishing the house in the morning!
I changed the red mop head on my mop.
Pity it the new one doesn't screw properly on!
I loaded up my skip and off I go..
I went over by a little...
(No chance of gettin paid for it!)
Back on the road with some nice music to listen and sing along with!
There was a nice rainbow for me when I got home.
Nice bit of tea made by hubby.
Quick look into today's newspaper.
Graham  Gouldman  is an English singer, songwriter, and musician. He has been the only constant member of the art rock band 10cc.  
He is 75 years old 🎈 
Now for Sleep Tea.

Play, Sing, Repeat x5

 To refuse awards is another way of accepting them with more noise than is normal - Peter Ustinov
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐪
Nice big hug and brew to wake up too :)
Breakfast.
Dressed.
I woke up my kids for school.
I looked out of the window....
It's raining ☔
Out comes those sexy lumo trousers for the first time in 5 months!
Gave everyone their sloppy wet 💋💋💋
Out the door in the rain.
Here is a picture of those sexy lumo trousers↓
I turned on my lights
(no tree pic as it was raining)
I waited by Sexy Beast to start.
Now for the fun to start......
One black van decides not to STOP and goes straight under my Lollipop stick....
Some on the other side of the road just went for it and decided to ignore my lollipop and keep on going.....
Some of the parents were quite shocked at how car drivers were ignoring me and not stopping.
I just commented...."Let them get on with it!"
Something made my day......
It has been worth waiting for....
It purred when it went past me...
Followed by a yellow 4x4 one.
The rain finally stopped....
So many layers to take off when I finished!
I got my newspaper and my neighbour's magazine.
Back home.
Much needed coffee...
Now to phone the tax office up about the tax grab out of my wages.
I was put on hold, so I started to write yesterday's blog while waiting.
I finally got an answer 53 minutes later...
They sent my tax code last week to the company, and while talking to me, she resent it. They will have to refund it me in next month's wages.
I thanked her for that.
I emailed the company with my tax code, and to repeat what the tax office said, I have to have that money put back in my wages next month.
Then the emails started..
Just like a tennis match...
Back and Forth.....
I'm supposed to have my 3 months interview in July
(To see if I get took on permanently) 
The money I paid out for the cleaning supplies will be reimbursed in next month's wages.
If I need anything else in future I will have to email the company.
I found a cleaning cart on ebay....
(The other two cleaners have got one)
Only £50.....
I probably will be stuck with Mule until a wheel comes off...↓
Anyway got blog finished.
Still feeling cold...
Soup time!
The book came for my neighbour.
My youngest son will drop it and his magazine around later on...↓↓↓
Mission completed!
It was a bit windy for the second part of my Lollipop job.
The winter coat, winter hat and gloves had to be worn. Blowing my lollipop stick all over the place.
It keeps goes invisible my stick does, as car drivers just keep going under it!
Chatted to my friend when I finished.
Back home to get changed....
I kept repeating a great song all the way to work......
(5 times!)
All time classic..from the 70s..↓
I did let Kate have a go when I got in the car park.
Now to try the other vacuum cleaner...
It works!!!!
 Woo Hoo!
Blue sky feeling↑↑ 
Finished on time...
Back to more singing on the way home...
Now for pie!
Now for today's Judge Rinder.
Quick look into today's newspaper.
I was getting tired...
Off to enjoy my sleep tea in bed.
Out like a log I went Zzzzz
