Singing into 2024

You never know, it could be somebody important - Queen Elizabeth II, to a woman whose mobile rang as they chatted.
Welcome to my 2024!
So much has happened this month.
We had a weekend break to Edinburgh before I went back to work...
We visited the castle...
 
(Hubby realising we are going home tomorrow!)↓↓↓
I have 21 nutcrackers at the last count ↑↑
We visited a charity shop, I started singing along with the music, a couple who was near me, soon moved away and left the shop. I didn't think my singing was that bad, surely?
Finally found a big Dolls House for the Sindys↓
I have been busy collecting Minions↓
I have resigned from one Councillor job from one Parish Council.
Still got the other Councillor job, just sorting out things to celebrate the 80th Anniversary of D-Day on the 6th June.
Roll on February...
My leap year 13th Birthday 🎈
Out comes the sequins!
The blog will be updated soon....🤞

Nutcracker Moments!

 If you can't see the humour in yourself, you could be missing the joke of the century - Dame Edna Everage.
Welcome to my wet Saturday ☔
9 Years ago, I started my first time as a Lollipop Lady.
I was made redundant after 4 years.
Year off.
Then back to be a Lollypop lady again in a different area.
My 4th Anniverday of that job is tomorrow \o/
Breakfast and Brew.
Dressed.
We listened to "The Sounds of the 60s"
UK Top 3 from 1967.
3:Dave Dee, Dozy,Beaky, Mick & Tich - Zabadak
2: Bee Gees - Massachusetts
1: The Foundations - Baby, Now That I've Found You
Rain mac on.
Off to Droitwich we go...
We first park up and go in to visit the Droitwich Lions. Loads of books we got.
We then moved the car.
Off to explore Droitwich.
Now to look in the Charity Shops.
Off to have a coffee and nibble↓
We nipped into Waitrose for a look...
£65.
£13
Back to the car.
Drove to Lidl's.
Done food shopping.
I nipped into B&M.
Nutcracker time!
On the way back home, hubby got some new wipers for his car.
Home time.
Unpacked all my bargains↓↓
Light lunch.
Tea at 3.
We caught up with 3 more episodes of Hell's Kitchen.
We had a nice tea.
Looked into today's newspaper.
Then we watched "Sly".
Brilliant!
Next was James Whale.
We watched up to Headliners.
Sleep Tea Time.
Off to a warm bed with a even warmer hubby.

Gone! Just Like Magic!

All I ask is a chance to prove that money can't make me happy - Spike Milligan.
Welcome to my Monday Motivation 😄
Breakfast and Brew.
(With my new Monday cup!)
Dressed.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before he goes to work.
On goes the poppy on my jacket ↓
As I am on the way out, I had a workman ask to move my car over the drive a bit.
I told him I was on the way out and you can use the drive. He was here to remove all the bamboo from next door's garden. I will park on the road when I come back.
Off I went....
I parked in the Co-op car park.
(There is only a 90 minute parking allowed)
I dropped the big bag of Dvds at the Charity Shop.
The actual buildings which includes the Charity Shop was  up for auction last week, someone bought it instead of it going for auction↓↓
I got a nice Robin scarf and a mini-cupcake baking tin↓↓
I chatted with a parent on the way back to Sexy Beast.
Picked up my shopping bag from Sexy Beast and went to get my newspaper and other bargains from the Co-op.
Back home I go.
I parked on the road.
The workman were outside.
"Finished? That was quick!"
They all laughed.
I may one a cup of tea.
I unpacked my bargains and shopping.
Cup of coffee time.
I wrote one blog post from last week.
Listened to Pick of the Pops from 1967 and 1979.
No liquid lunch today.
I chatted with hubby on his lunch break.
Back to writing yesterday's blog post.
Published last Monday's blog post.
Now to make some cake....
Out comes Kenny the Kenwood....
Goes in the oven.
Cup of Brew needed...
The workman thanked me for giving him a cup of tea.
After they left, I put Sexy Beast back on the drive. 
Let's have a look at the garden next door!
One bit of bamboo left!
 
Looking good :)
I got one cake tin out of the oven.
One left to bake.
I sort out my Council emails.
Salad for tea.
Let the cake cool down.
Looked into today's newspaper.
Now for a bit of Mafia....
I watched the first one.
Put the cake together and added the frosting to it.
I will decorate it tomorrow.
Sleep Tea time.
Hubby came back from Snooker.
He won his game, however his team lost 3-2 at the end. 
Time for a warm bed with a even warmer hubby!
