Welcome to July!😎

Once the alarm was turned, I fell back to sleep...

Looked at my watch it was 6.50!!!!

Got up, washed and changed.

Woke up kids.

Breakfast with a slurp of brew.

Gave out my sloppy wet 💋💋💋 to everyone.

Now out of the house I go.

Wearing some fancy trousers...

Time to wear the summer coat!

Tree pic.

Now for the fun to start!

The Cheeky Window Cleaner shouted through his window to me:

"You still left your pyjamas on!"

Cheek!

Didn't see the Lambo...

Instead  a nice white McLaren sports car went past me.

A few cars had to test their brakes!

Finished in one piece.

Back home.

Last day for the Bunting to be up in the garden!

Much needed coffee.

Younger son wasn't up,

So we didn't go to Bidford car boot this week.

Instead I did some shopping on-line on the Dunelm website....

"Sale Time!"

My new trainers had arrived. 

However, looking at the size of the box.

(Being on the small size)

It turns out they are a size 10!

(I am size 12!)

Wrapped the packet back up, and going to send it back later.

Now to get tea made for later...

Rolled out the pastry.

A bit of blind bake time...

Fried up some peppers, mushrooms, garlic and spinach in a pan.

Once done, I checked the jar of Pesto.

(Gone off!)

I used a carton of  Tomato Passata instead.

Added everything, and put it in the oven for later.

Watered the plants outside.

I had a bit of missmatch for lunch.

Run out of salad, just had bits of the fridge.

I left the house a bit early to post the parcel.

 I put on the 50's CD on I bought at the weekend.

Kept playing one song over and over again,

As it is that feel good feeling!

The song is:

Posted the trainers back,

First Class Recorded Delivery.

Now down to do my afternoon shift of Lollipop.

The sun was trying to break out of the clouds.

Summer coat went on.

Now for bedlam to start.

There were two coachers parked further up the road, which caused a backlog of car trying to get pass them. A lorry further down the road, had car drivers backing up the otherside of the road.

Cars everywhere!

Banging of gums as well, especially when I had to stop the car drivers.

One man went past and shouted to me:

"You didn't stop me!"

"I will next time!" I laughed.

Parents were still trying to cross behind the coaches to get over the road in front of moving traffic!

At least I finished in one piece.

I was going to get a drink from the near-by mini-mart.

As I was picking up by Dunelm order, I might as well nip into Lidl and get a drink.

Picked up my order from Dunelm.

Picked a salad and a drink from Lidl next.

Back home to see the Bunting had been took down!

Time to unpack my bargains from Dunelm.

At least the house is going to smell nice :)

I caught up on 3 days newspapers.

Gave hubby a sloppy wet 💋 when he came home.

Time to slice up the tart!

So yum!

Nice long look into today's newspaper.

Guy Mitchell (born Albert George Cernik ) was an American pop singer and actor, successful in his homeland, the UK, and Australia. He sold 44 million records, including six million-selling singles.He died on this day in 1999 aged 72.

In Need Of A Boost!

 A nickel will get you on the subway, but garlic will get you a seat - New York Jewish saying 

Welcome to my Sunday😁

Nice warm hug...

Followed by brew and breakfast.

The son who goes boxing on Sunday wasn't feeling very well.

So he went back to bed.

Instead we got dressed.

The rain is back!

Now to test tyres on Sexy Beast.

Checks tyre pressures, and fills up Sexy Beast up for the week.

The rain was coming down on the way to Dunelm to pick up my order.

Puts my order on the back seat before it starts to rain again.

Off to see my parents.

I have got the balloons ready for Father's Day.

Those dark clouds coming over...

Still warm...

Back home.

Washing machine goes back on.

The door mats go outside

(The step has to be painted again in the future)

Now to sort out the cloths for work this week.

With a added Boost to help me along....

Back on the Lollipop job tomorrow.

Anything concerning the 3 jobs gets put into Sexy Beast except Henry the Hoover!

Cup of coffee before we leave.

Back out to check hubby's tyres.

Off to Co-op for some nice reduced food.

Nice bag full.

Back home.

lunch.

The washing machine had been on 3 times.

The weather outside is forecasting rain.

So the washing won't be going outside.

At least the plants are being watered!

I wrote and published yesterday's blog post. 

Then to enjoy the sunshine!

Followed by some burgers for tea!

Half an hour later,

The heavens opened!

At least the garden is being watered!

On the search for a suit for younger son's Prom next month.

Didn't like my suggestions...

Blue suit is just a blue suit...

I'm not buying a new one for £87 from Next,

when I can get one for £30!

I found one he actually liked!

Put a bid on....wait and see... 

I have a nice hot shower.

Gets everything ready for the return to work tomorrow.....🍭

Not Big Enough For The Hole!

Teamwork: a chance to blame someone else - Ambrose Bierce

Welcome to my relaxing Sunday 👀

Nice big hug and sloppy 💋 to start Sunday.

Breakfast.

All the males of the household, are going for a much needed haircut.

My haircut in next month \o/

While they went to the barbers.

I enjoyed a much needed coffee.

A Labour leaflet was dropped through my letterbox.

Straight in the recycle bin after I was stitched up over the Councillor job!

Hubby came back with a little bit of hair....

Now to get out of the house in Sexy Beast.

I collected my mops and buckets from Dunelm.

I got more bits from Lidl. 

Off to the clothes bank at Sainsburys.

The bag of clothes that my younger son has sorted out was just too big for the hole....

The bag has to be broken into and added to the hole in small sizes.

Once done.

Now to see mum and dad.

Someone had died 3 years short of her 50th Birthday :(

I said hello to Bill

I said hello to my parents and telling what has been happening about their house. Not to haunt me but my other brothers!

As it was so nice outside.

We had our lunch in the front garden.

My amazon order arrived with things I need tomorrow.

Back out to get our monthly meat order.

My late dad loved Beef Dripping on toast.

Back home to unload all our meat we bought.

Tea at 3

While hubby went off to do a tip run.

I had a beef and mushroom pie to make.

I sent more forms off for the job I am starting tomorrow.
