Need To Get Away From The Cabin Fever!

 I turned down This Is Your Life.I couldn't bear to think of all those cross wives - Roger Moore
Welcome to my Monday Motiviation 🎈
I am feeling much better :)
Up early to do the Heardles:
Heardle 60s:
My results:
Back on the Breakfast with Brew.
On goes the thermal vest and several layers.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before he goes to work.
I got rid of the cardboard that older son left in the kitchen from his new bed.
Out of the bin he had thrown the still wrapped chocolate orange I gave him for Christmas, plus a CD his younger brother had bought himself from HMV↓
Words will have to mentioned later.
I am going out for an hour in Sexy Beast.
Cabin Fever is setting in, as I haven't been out for a week!
I pop into Sainsburys.
Bump into some of my old customers I delivered mail to. We had a good yak.
Then I carried on getting some bits.
Now back home with them.
Coffee machine goes on.
Gets Kenny out for a quick play.
I used all the 6 lemons I had.
The cupcakes and lemon tart goes in the oven.
The dishwasher goes on twice!
Coffee time.
Get the cupcakes out to cool.
Liquid lunch time.
I decorated the cupcakes.
Lemon tart looks nice↓
I writes 3 blog posts.
Hubby comes back and a sloppy wet one 💋
He had pizza.
I had a salad.
No more Stir Fries for me after what I have gone through in the past two weeks!
