I woke up late felt like 💩

Dressed.

Now out to get some milk,newspaper and bargains.

 While get the £1 coin out for the newspaper, the zip got jammed!

(It's going to be one of days is it!)

I parked behind a car outside the Newsagent Shop. The car driver shot me a look when she got back to car. I watched her from inside the shop, to make sure she didn't hit my car as she reversed her car.

(I left her loads of room!)

Further on, the traffic lights stopped me for no reason, as there were no other cars at the three way lights!

(Going to be one of those days!)

I gets down to Studley.

Now to use my offers on the Co-op card!

Unpacking my bargains...

I had a week's newspapers to catch up with.

So I caught up todate with everything.

The 3 green recycle bins are being emptied this Thursday... 

Now for lunch.

Done more tidying up to Tea at 3.

Then I went out to get a Lucky Bag from Morrisons.

(It's a good job I only got one, as the other two bags were the same as mine!)

I did my Stir Fry, but I had a little meat with it.

Mmmm  what to watch?

Hubby came back from visiting his dads.

He had a sloppy wet 💋

We carried on watching Netflix.

I quickly looked in today's newspaper before I pressed start.

Aretha Franklin  was an American singer, songwriter, and pianist. Referred to as the "Queen of Soul", she is regarded as the most influential female vocalist of the 1960s. Franklin began her career as a child, singing gospel at New Bethel Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan, where her father C. L. Franklin was a minister.

At the age of 18, she embarked on a secular-music career as a recording artist for Columbia Records. While her career did not immediately flourish, she found acclaim and commercial success after signing with Atlantic Records in 1966. Hit songs such as "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)", "Respect", "(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman", "Chain of Fools", "Think" and "I Say a Little Prayer" propelled her past her musical peers. 

She died on this day in 2018 aged 76. 

Sleep Tea Time.

Now for the fun to start 🎈

It was very quiet for a Monday.

Some of the parents were going in late because of the football last night.

Two baby birds landed on the road just up from me. Two seconds later, a car ran down over, the car following made sure both became pancakes :(

Some of the parents asked if I watched the match, I told them I watched Top of the Pops from 1991 instead.

Finished in one piece.

I had popped into the Co-op to get some milk.

The DPD delivery man phoned me, asking where my house was. I gave him the directions, and he put phone down soon after.

Back home.

The Dpd man found me and delivered the boxes from Star Bargains.

Unloaded the boxes.

Coffee time.

They are needed for the next good deed we are doing.

Now to sort out 3 boxes of CDs of my late dad's.

I managed to sort out out two trays full of CD's for the Droitwich Lions. Next was the gardening magazines that I was saving for no reason, that went in a box, then some cooking books I had from my dad's which I don't use and someone else might find useful.

4 boxes of useful things being dropped off at a Droitwich lions member on Saturday morning.

Lunchtime.

After watching a episode of The Hotel Inspector.

Out I went again.

There was a dark cloud, but I still worn my Summer Coat...

Far too humid for that winter coat.

Still some parents were asking if I saw the match, I said, "Top of the Pops from 1991".

"Manic Street Preachers on there yet?"

"No, but Paul Young and OMD was," I replied....

I finished in one piece.

Back home for a lolly pop.

I caught up with more Hotel Inspector and last week's newspapers.

I had a Chicken Stir Fry for tea.

Hubby came back from seeing his dad.

Quick look in today's newspaper.

Eddie Rabbitt  was an American country music singer and songwriter. His career began as a songwriter in the late 1960s, springboarding to a recording career after composing hits such as "Kentucky Rain" for Elvis Presley in 1970 and "Pure Love" for Ronnie Milsap in 1974. Later in the 1970s, Rabbitt helped to develop the crossover-influenced sound of country music prevalent in the 1980s with such hits as "Suspicions", "I Love a Rainy Night" (a number-one hit single on the Billboard Hot 100), and "Every Which Way but Loose" (the theme from the film of the same title). His duets "Both to Each Other (Friends and Lovers)" with Juice Newton and "You and I" with Crystal Gayle later appeared on the soap operas Days of Our Lives and All My Children.He sadly died on this day in 1998 aged 56.

I just flopped into bed without my Sleep Tea and not putting in my ear plugs...

Ear plugs back in...
