Rain Or Shine?

The policy of being too cautious is the greatest risk of all 

- Jawaharlal Nehru

Welcome to my Thursday 🍾

Looks like I will be dodging the rain....

Brew and hug.

Breakfast.

Dressed.

I left it too late for a daily walk.

Instead gave everyone their sloppy wet 💋💋💋

It forecasted heavy rain this morning.

The sexy lumo trousers had to be worn.

As normal, It rained for 20 seconds than the sun came out!

I had the normal fun of car driver on the other side of the road failing too stop!

That's why my lollipop stick goes first in the road instead of me!

Finished in one piece.

After loading up the dishwasher.

Adding missing curtain hooks to curtains over the front door curtain.

I sat down to  coffee.

Back out to enjoy a new CD I bought last week.

Now for some singing along...

 Has a quick peek in the newspaper.

Robert "Kool" Bell , also known by his Muslim name Muhammad Bayyan,  is an American musician, singer and songwriter. He is one of the founding members of the American funk band, Kool & the Gang.He is 70 years old 🎈

Jim Diamond  was a Scottish singer-songwriter, best known for his three Top 5 hits: "I Won't Let You Down" (1982), as the lead singer of PhD; and his solo performances "I Should Have Known Better", a United Kingdom No. 1 in 1984, and "Hi Ho Silver", the theme song from Boon, which reached No. 5 in the UK Singles Chart in 1986.He died on this day in 2015 aged 64.

 I looked across the fields of fun..

I had another bump in the road while in work.

Never the same day twice.

I was glad to get back to the singing in Sexy Beast.

Those clouds are not looking too good...

 Light lunch↓

It did say rain was forecasted...

I tried my luck..

Summer coat with boots...

One car driver drove past me,

Turned around in the road up from me, 

When I was trying to cross some people over, she just drove past, failed to stop!

I had a few no stoppers this afternoon.

When I finished, I met up with my friend who brings his dog for a walk in the afternoon.

He has upgraded his car to a 2013 blue Ford Fiesta.

Nice.

I am glad I haven't got my other job to go to, as I can chat more to people after my Lollipop job....now.

I got home and started on tonights meal.

Packed with lentils,mince, mushrooms,garlic, and with added rice.

Then it was off to work I go.

Big tune to start of with:

Once I was finished.

I was tired...

I took my sleep tea to bed...

Then let my hands do the talking....

Friday Feeling is back tomorrow \o/

 Brew and hug.

Breakfast.

Ran out of time for our daily walk.

Out in Sexy Beast↓

Back home↓

I gave hubby a wet sloppy 💋 before he left.

I did the same to my kids when they for school 💋💋

I loaded up the dishwasher.

Emptied all the bins in the house.

 Off for a quick ride in Sexy Beast. 

Just as I left, it started to rain.

Hopefully it stops raining when I get to work.

Back to the singing...↓

The sun came out \o/

I could see a helicopter in the distance.

While I was going into work, it came over.

Then the fun started like it has this week...

It feels like I shouldn't be having any contact with the kids now, even though I'm employed to do so.

Time is running out of me being there......

I was glad to get back in the Sexy Beast after all of that fun!

Back to the singing↓ 

It's a lot colder than yesterday.

No sitting outside today with lunch!

Finished yesterday's blog.

Tea at 3

I had phone call from my Lollipop boss 🍭

I will be going back to work soon..

Woo hoo \o/

I phoned my friend to tell her of the fun I had today.

She couldn't believe it either!

I gave hubby a big sloppy 💋 when he came home.

I put the tea on and went out for a little walk.

Filled in the sheet.

We might be a little adventurous tomorrow and might go further..

I chatted to my friend who used to visit me on a Tuesday while I was recovering from my accident....

Tea was ready by then↓

After that I went down to work.

The key fitted in the padlock without any problems.

Now to start with a big tune↓

Once I finished.

I caught up on the news.

(I haven't heard any today)

Paper review with some Sleep Tea.

So glad the Friday Feeling is coming back tomorrow...🎈

I need a truck load after this week!

The weekend is here \o/

I woke up and saw the sun coming up↗↗

 I caught the last hour of "The Sounds of the 60s", while enjoying a cup of tea in my warm bed!

  Once we had breakfast.

Kids were woken up, as they had boxing club to go to. 

My dad failed to tell us on Friday that he had run out of some of his tablets. As his doctors were not open today, we had to phone 111 to get a urgent perscription for this tablets!

 Hubby took kids to boxing and pick up his perscription.

I meanwhile played with the saw!

 Then coffee with nibble

Quick read of a nice magazine that came yesterday↓

Nice items, nice prices!

Hubby and kids come back.

My dad failed to tell my hubby last night and this morning to get his newspaper.

So we will have to go out again!

In the meantime we listened to
