S-T-O-P !

I was high on life, but eventually I built up a tolerance - Arj Barker
Welcome to my Thursday vibes 🌟🌟
Breakfast and Brew.
Dressed.
Now to leave the house...
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.
On goes the summer hat and summer coat
&
Big big sunglasses
I go down and turn on my lights.
Picks up the newspaper on the way back up.
Swaps the newspaper for my big stick.
Now to turn on my other lights.
Let's go to work...🍭
Oh dear, one old woman nearly had her windscreen clipped as she drove through.
(The look of terror when she went past)
Another car went under my stick and could have took off her car ariel!
Plus the last minute car braking didn't help either!
At least the sun was out!
Finished in one piece.
Now to look at a newly installed fence! 
That's good :)
Back home.
Coffee time.
Unloaded and loaded up dishwasher.
Making full use of this sunshine.
Washing machine goes on.
Then the washing gets put on the line.
I go and sit on the bench to soak up some rays before lunch.
Liquid lunch time.
I talked to hubby on his lunch break.
Now out into the sunshine...
On goes the summer hat and summer coat.
&
Big big sunglasses.
I put on one set of lights, and walked down to the Charity Shop.
Said hi to everyone.
Turned on my lights, and got my big stick out of Sexy Beast. 
Met up with everyone for a quick rabbit.
I said goodbye to everyone when I was due to start.
Still had car drivers not observing my Stop sign!
Few BOINGs given out on the car on the otherside of the road.
At least I finished in one piece.
Back home.
Sat in the front garden to chill out.
Hubby was going to get a takeaway on the way home.
Hubby had a sloppy wet one 💋 when he came home, armed with the takeaway.
Yum.
Now to look into today's newspaper.
James Bond time again...
Brilliant!
We caught up on the news and newspaper review.
Sleep Tea Time.
The Friday Feeling is back tomorrow 🎈🎈

Welcome to my Saturday 👅

Breakfast.
Kids are off for their daily exercise.
They will meet us at the graveyard where my parents are buried.
I had some nice stuff arrive in the post↓
Now to go out for some fresh air.
Kids started on their walk.
We went past where the new Lidl is being built.
They are slowly bringing down the old buildings..
Tidied up my parent's grave.
Next Sunday is Mother's Day, and got the balloons ready as well as more flowers.
We had a look around the graveyard.
We found someone who died at 101 years old.
Kids arrived. 
Back home.
We had a nice treat of a Bacon and black pudding sandwich↓
Then off to get some meat for the freezer.
(I stopped in the car)
When we got back, time for all of it to go in the freezer.
Time for a much needed coffee.
Hubby and son then went off to do some food shopping for us and the next door neighbour.
I had a Cottage Pie to make.
Once it was done, in the oven it went.
Having fun at the moment trying to master bread.
We ate the last of it yesterday.
First thing tomorrow, the breadmaker is going back on.
I wrote yesterday's blog post.

Unpacked the shopping.
