The woman in the shop was having a bad Monday by giving out too much change to people (Including me)

"I don't know what's a matter with me today,"She said.

"Better put some talcum powder on it" I replied.

She laughed too! 

The delivery person was waiting for us when we got back

 He was grumbling on the how much frozen stuff I had ordered.

Then he was grumbling on how face masks are a waste of time.

(I only brought this up, on how no one was wearing any in Lidl's on Saturday)

He was a right old happy soul!

Once I took in the shopping and put it away.

I loaded up the dishwasher.

I noticed a dark cloud coming over.

I got the washing in off the line, just as the rain came down!
