 I pulled to hard on my pom pom maker and it fell off!!!!
 After I emailed Hobbycraft,
On where my order went.
It appeared like magic!
 My trees had arrived↓
 Time for light lunch↓
 My Amazon order arrived↓
Tea at 3↓
 I left the TV Themes Quiz until hubby gets back.
I noticed a ex-boyfriend was doing a bit of rubbernecking in his lorry when he went pastmy house.
(I could give him a picture it might last longer)
He did the same when he came back up the road......
(Already forgot what I look like????)
The pom poms are coming along nicely.
 I didn't fancy cooking after spending nearly all day in the garden.
Hubby got Scallop and chips on the way home↓
Then off to work with some great music↓
 It is still light when I gets back↓
  Someone flying away↓
 As my foot was really hurting.
Gel was applied plus a hot wheaty bag was left on....
Hopefully the swelling will go down soon....

Some of the parents say the most wonderful word to me....
"Friday!"
One parent when he says..."Remember....?"
I replied,"Remember your Womble.!"
He laughed..
 A lot less cars are stopping this morning \o/
Once I finished and was walking back to Sexy Beast.
Still with my lollipop coat on↓
I had a three year old boy just staring at me while I was walking.I waved at him, he waved back, he kept looking, while his dad picked him up and put him in the car!
Now back to doing what I do best.....
Sing-a-long↓
 I got to be B3↓
Webbs Experience Time↓
 Coffee, nibble and chat time↓
 I said goodbye to my friend,
And off I go again...
I looked across the fields of fun for the last time this week↓
 I had a really red face when I got finished.
I drove with the window open while singing along↓
It isn't reaching double figures today↓
 My new album has arrived :)
 After I had my coffee.
I gave hubby a sloppy ๐Ÿ’‹
I started to listen to the new CD while on the way to my Lollipop job↓
 "It's Friday!" I get from some of the parents.
Only a few cars didn't stop.
I saw my friend at the end of my shift.
He told me of his plans for the weekend,and I did vice versa.
Then off home with...
 I get changed and off to the Happy Place Of Work.
While cleaning in the offices in the factory part. I tripped over an old  boating bollard that was keeping the interlocking door open.
I had a witness to it!
I joked "There might have been a large crater in his new office floor if I had landed there.
So big would the crater big, they could have seen it from the moon!" 
Joking aside, I had to take off my trainer the pain was that bad in my right ankle. 
I hobbled about and got my job done.
I hobbled home.
Chicken dinner was ready for me.
I put my foot up.
Took some painkillers to ease the pain.
I had to forgo doing my final job of the day as the pain was unbearable.
Off to bed to escape the pain!
