When Friday Comes To Town!

It's Friday! I can't wait to be ashamed of what I do this weekend - Anon
Woo hoo it's come around again🍾
I had the normal nudge for tea..
Everyone had sloppy πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹ when they all left.
It wasn't that warm out there :(
Black t-shirt and leggings time!
I gave all the plants a good water....
Followed by coffee↓
 Once the dishwasher was loaded
&
Kitchen was tidied up
I had to have a really early liquid lunch↓
 
 It looked like rain,
So the rain mac had to brought along!

but it still cold enough for leggings!
I popped around to check on my dad.
Then on to work with more Motown to sing along to!
