Let's Follow That Tractor!

I was once so poor I didn't know where my next husband was coming from - Mae West.

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫

Warm hug with brew.

Breakfast.

Dressed.

I gives hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before he went to work.

I meanwhile left the house shortly after too.

I had a phone call, from the friend I have coffee with at Webbs, saying the Bromsgrove Highway is closed due to an accident.

I now have to figure another way to Webbs.

Picks up the newspaper & my neighbour's magazine on the way.

I gets off at a sliproad before I get stuck in the massive queue on the Highway.

I goes the old way I used to go to my old job.

Through the lovely countryside.

I finally get to Webbs and B3

I have a look in Hobbycraft...

£58

My didn't cost mine on Saturday!

£2.99

Now to have coffee, chat and nibble!

Then it's a good look around the house plants!

Wonder if I could fit this in my garden???

I said goodbye to my friend.

Off home I went.

I thought the highway might be open by now.

Big Mistake,it wasn't.

On the way through the back roads of Bromsgrove to get home, I was stuck behind a tractor with a trailer doing 20 m.p.h.

Some managed to overtake it, by the time it was my turn, the lines were against me.

I gets to a slip road of the Bromsgrove Highway it was still closed.

So I had to follow the tractor once more.

A convoy was slowly building up behind me.

An ambulance that was 4 cars behind me, put their blue lights on, so I stopped and let it through.The Tractor refused to let the ambulance through until the ambulance put on it's music (Sirens)THEN it stopped and let the ambulance through!

I took another short cut and didn't follow the tractor no more \o/ 

Finally got home after half an hour!

My magazine and pom pom trims arrived.

Lunch.

Now to get out in the garden for a little bit of tidy up!

Swept the path, got some weeds up!

Tea at 3 was a bit late.

Now to get yesterday's blog post wrote....

Hubby came back with tonight's tea.

He has a sloppy wet 😘 for his trouble!

Tea is served.

Welcome to my Monday 👯

Nice hug with brew.

Breakfast.

I gave hubby a wet sloppy 💋 before he went off to work.

I had a nice hot shower.

Got the kids up.

I had a quick coffee...

Now to do some work around the house.

Dishwasher went on.

Tumble Drier on.

All the recycling went into the green bin.

I added new sealant to the basin in the bathroom.

That done :)

Before I started on the bath.

Fresh air needed.

Out to get the newspaper.

I filled up the bath half full of water.

I took off the old sealant.

However the new sealant didn't work!!!

I used some sealant tape instead.

That looks a lot better! 

Now for a very late lunch!

Then to write 2 blog entries.

The Prodical brother of mine had actually paid a visit to our parents grave over the Christmas period!!!!!

(First time since the funeral last March!)

He put a photo on his FB to prove it↓

He took my wreath off where I had put it.

He also put a picture on, off our late parents on their wedding day in 1968.

  (A postman friend gave me the picture to give my dad.

Now I know who has got it now!)

I am going up again this weekend and hopefully the other brother hasn't messed up the grave like he did last time...

I had run out of time to add the third blog post that covered Valentine's Day.

That will be posted tomorrow! 

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

Meat Free Meal.
