Welcome to my Monday ๐Ÿ’ƒ
Warm hugs time.
Breakfast.
I got the kids up ready for some on-line learning.
I gave hubby a sloppy wet ๐Ÿ’‹ before he went off to work.
I enjoyed that king size bed some more before I got up!
Quick coffee.
Puts the tumble drier back on.
Unloaded dishwasher.
Put the recycling in the green bins.
Out for some fresh air.
I got the newspaper.
I went past my late dad's house.
The garage door was open, and a purple car with white lettering was in the drive....
Mmmmmm what's going on???
Back home.
I had my Amazon order come :)
(Just in time for Valentines!)
I helped get the trays of eggs off the backseat of my neighbour's car.
He gave me a tray of eggs and in return he had a slice of coffee and walnut cake!
Out came Henry for a little play...
Lunchtime!
With a quick read of the newspaper.

I looked outside and saw the white stuff coming down.
I got on with writing my blog from yesterday.
Tea at 3.
I put on some 60s tunes on my Jukebox on Twitter.
Looked outside at the snow..
Snow Plow time?
Time to do some chopping up time for tea...
Meat-free Stir Fry.
We watched some more episodes of Kitchen Nightmares USA.
Then I went outside to take some nice snow pics.
Now for some Sleep Tea...

Hopefully the snow will disappear....
