Trying To Chew It Off....

Appreciate me now, and avoid the rush - Ashleigh Brilliant

Welcome to my busy Tuesday 🐔

Breakfast and Brew.

Dressed.

As it was raining, and going to carry on raining this morning, on goes the sexy lumo trousers.

Put on rain mac, and ran to Sexy Beast.

I gave hubby a sloppy wet one💋 before I left for work.

On goes summer hat, winter coat and waterproof boots.

As it is pouring down with rain.

I go and turn on my lights, and back up to my other lights to turn them on.

A new Pillar Box topper↓

Back to Sexy Beast to get my big stick.

I walked over to my spot.

I was getting well warm in the rain.

In the end, I took off my gloves, and my hood.

Lots of kids to cross over.

I had 3 cars ignore me on the other side of the road, including one parent who I used to talk to.

It kept starting to rain.

Finished in one piece.

I had to take off my sexy lumo trousers as I was well warm!

I got my newspaper, then onto to do some Council business for a few hours.

Back home to pick up son for his job interview.

Quick coffee...

Then out...

I had a look around while younger son went for his interview.

Nice ;)

Gets what I needed to get.

Son comes back and says he has got the day job.

Woo hoo!

When we left the store, the heavens opened!

Back home.

Small lunch.

Younger son went off on my bike to see his older brother.

I was running late to go to my job!

I didn't put on sexy lumo trousers as it was forecasting not to rain anymore!

I put on my Summer hat,Winter coat, and waterproof shoes, (Just in case it does rain)

I go and put one set of lights, then down for a visit to the Charity Shop. We had a good yak in there.

All of my friends appeared in the Charity Shop.

I said goodbye to the staff in there and walked back up the road, turning on my other light on the way.

I fetch my big stick and go and stand in the square for a little rabbit.

Those dark clouds coming over doesn't look good.

I said goodbye to my friends as I started my afternoon shift.

This is where the fun starts.

Someone parks on double yellow lines.

The car drivers coming up the road now have a problem seeing me crossing the road!

While in the middle of the road, I was waiting for a child to cross over, a van driver just drove past, realising a child was coming over, he said "Sorry" when he drove past me!

The lovely parent that tried to run me over last year in her previous car, decided not stop as I was crossing over the road.

Nice loud BOING she received for not stopping!

Finished in one piece, just!

Back home.

Jumped into the shower.

Got some lovely things from the Charity shop earlier↓

Nice cup of brew.

Something must be in the air.

First my younger son chewed my head off about joining a Union. I soon put him right on a few things.

Hubby comes home and tries twice to chew my head off!

He didn't get to do it for the third time!

Tea was served up.

Then off out for me as I had a Council Meeting to go to...↓

Has Council meeting.

Back home.

Hubby had gone to see his friend who had just lost his dad.

I wrote another blog post.

Looked into today's newspaper.

Watched some news.

Sleep Tea time.

Hoping for a sunny Hump Day tomorrow 🐫

 

Turning Into A Sad Day

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫

Another sunny Hump day↓

Breakfast and Brew

Adding more Stop signs↓

Dressed.

Now out of the house.

I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋

Off to work I go.

The mini was still parked there!

(Free secure parking)

On goes the summer coat and summer hat.

&

Big big sunglasses.

I goes and puts on one set of lights.

I come and pick up my big stick.

I go and turn on my other lights.

Off to my spot I go.

I had to give out two Boings.

I was told my friend of over 30 years, and a fellow Councillor had died this morning.

Just before I finished, a car driver left his car at the parish hall and came over to tell me, he could not see crossing over the kids when he was driving up the road. I looked at him in disbelief. I am dressed in lumo with a big stop sign and he can't see me?

Time for a visit to Spec-Savers!

Off to Morrisons.

I normally use the self-service, but this time I will use a cashier instead. Oh dear.

The woman in front had a full trolley of shopping.

She went over the £100 limit for chip and pin.

Out comes £23 of goods out of her trolley.

She pays, then pays for the extra £23 of goods.

I pay for my goods.

I pick up my newspaper, the Desk where I was queueing was getting longer as the Lotto machine had run out paper to print  the lotto tickets and no one knew where the rolls were kept!

I went over to the self-service tills.

I scanned my voucher for the newspaper and the red light went off!

FFS!

It was scanned and I was free to leave.

On the way out, I took my bag out of the trolley, a woman took the trolley of me, and before I realised, I had left the receipt in the trolley!

FFS!

Back to Sexy Beast, to write out the card for my friend's family.

I wrote the card and will drop it off later.

Back home.

Puts the washing machine on.

Puts the grey bin out.

Coffee time.

While keeping the blog updated, I get upset about losing my good friend.

My late friend's daughter phoned me to tell her mum had passed away.I passed my regards on to her and her dad.

I didn't fancy a liquid lunch instead a nice salad instead.

I chatted to hubby.

We got another wedding anniversary card.

When I was on the way out, I found a baby Squirrel.

I left it some nuts.

I needed up some uplifting songs....

I dropped in the card.

I gets to work.

On goes the Summer hat and Summer coat.

&

Big big sunglasses

The Council had lowered the flag.

I turned on my lights and went back to Sexy Beast for my water bottle.

My friends appeared and were worried about me.

By then I burst into a flood of tears and told the reason why.

Lots of hugs were given out :)

I felt a lot better.

We walked down to the Charity Shop as my friend had some things to hand in.

I bought a rainbow bath bomb.

Goes back to Sexy Beast to pick up my big stick.

Then we wait under the tree.

Some of the parents were very understanding as I was still upset. 

We walk over to the square and stand in the shade. 

When it was time to start, I said goodbye to my friends.

Now to start.

Great bus went past.

Cars were leaving a bit late to stop.

 Finished in one piece.

I was chatting to the two clerks about our late friend.

(I got upset again)

Who just appeared?

My late friend's son!

We had a hug and a good yak until ten to 5pm!

He felt better and I did.

Off home I went.

I put the tea in the oven.

Jumped into the shower.

Felt better.

Hubby came home and I gave him a sloppy wet one 💋

Quick tea.

Grabbed my Council things...

Hubby is going over to see his friend who lost his day yesterday morning.

I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋

Off to another Council meeting I go.

I thought it was going to be short meeting.

I watched the sunset through the window.

Meeting finished.

Back home.

My lights look nice :)

Hubby hadn't come back yet.

Looks into today's newspaper.

Sleep Tea time.

I felt emotionally drained.

I couldn't keep my eyes open any more.

Hubby appeared just as I was going to sleep......
