Play Time!

Always buy a good pair of shoes and a good bed, because if you're not in one, you're in the other - Joan Collins
Welcome to my Sunday🎈
I woke up just after 7am....
I couldn't get back to sleep...
So I had a little play with hubby....
(That woke him up ;))  
Afterwards we enjoyed breakfast in bed.
  I must remember to take down my set of teas that came in the post yesterday↓
 Once we got the kids up...
Time for a little ride out..
 
 We parked up↓
 We got some bargains in Lidl
(Including a Wobbly Box for £1.50)
Next stop was The Food Warehouse 
&
Home Bargains.
Needed the coffee and nibble after that↓
 Once we get home.
Unpack shopping.
Put on Tumble Drier,
Washing Machine
&
Dish Washer.
Once that was done,
Nice chicken dinner with lots of salad.
 We caught up with one more episode of:
Now to test the tyres of Sexy Beast.
While I was waiting, a car pulled up by a petrol pump.He didn't fancy that one, reversed out and moved over another pump. He jumped out, filled his car up, he then dropped the petrol cap, it rolled under his car.
He had to move the car to get to it.
He reversed the car, and then went in to the petrol station to pay for his fuel....
I get back.
Kicks off my shoes for my trusty old crocs!

If You Could Only Read My Mind!

Do not take life seriously.
You will never get out of it alive.
Elbert Hubbard
 The weekend is finally here 🍾🍾🍾
Cup of tea, warm bed to listen to "The Sounds of the 60's"
We was supposed to get up early and the small food shop from Lidl done.
That wasn't going to happen...
Fell back off to sleep...
Then dragged kids out of the house for some fresh air...
 By the time we got to Lidl's,
The car park was full and no where to park.
So off to Bromsgrove Aldi's we went.
Just got the shopping under £28.
 When we got back,it was starting to get dark.
 
 Hubby took our kids around to see my dad.
I meanwhile went off to do my final job of the weekend.
 I came back with the moon in the sky.
Time for some chores to be done.
Washing machine put on.
Dish washer unloaded up and loaded back up.
Everyone came back.
We had a light tea.
Movie time!
 Had a quick look at the Birthdays for today.

Joined in celebrations of my local library celebrating its 40th birthday
Cake, coffee and chat with old friends

Time to warm the thermal knickers again!
