Awash With Sequins & Those Silver Shoes!

 Don't forget to tell everyone it's a secret - Gerald Lieberman
Another quick update....
I am getting the blog updated as fast as the time  will let me!
*In the last 4 weeks...*
I baked again, put the Llama cake in.
No one wanted to try or buy it, so I had it back.
My youngest son had great A level results 🎈🎈
We spent a few days in Blackpool again.
The Disco ball was asking for another visit from us.💃💃
We visited "Funny Girls "again.
The sequins and silver shoes were worn...
The looks I had off people when I was on the tram ;)
*Lots of nice comments on my silver shoes!*
The 6 summer week holiday is nearly over....
Then the yellow peril (me) will be back on duty.
I have 6 weeks of frustration to get rid off.....
Hopefully my silver laces, along with my lumo hat, coat, and Stop sign might make the car drivers stop a bit sooner than they do.....
*Tomorrow will be the 9th Anniversary of me writing this blog!*
Hopefully soon, you will be able to see what I have been doing since we returned from Blackpool in June...🌈

Back home.
Then it all kicks off!
Younger son forgot to bring down his washing basket, he kicks his bedroom door a few times, and shouts at hubby. Younger son then gathers an overnight bags and goes over and stays at his "friends' house for the weekend!
The older son is moving out as well!
He packs his stuff and waits downstairs for his lift out of the house.
This is how he leaves his room!
*He didn't even say goodbye to me when he went ;'(*
I was in floods of tears.
I had some lunch.
Now to get some bits for the empty room.
Checked my tyre pressures.
Then to B&Q.
Emptied the room of every thing.
Hoovered the floor.
Tried the lamp my friend gave me.
Still a bit upset ;'(
We had a nice tea.

In Need Of A Strong Frozen Orange Juice!

 I like being President. The pay is good and I can walk to work - John F.Kennedy
Welcome back to the Friday Feeling 🎈
Breakfast and Brew.
Dressed.
Now to leave the house...
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
We had a van and trailer arrive.
Turns out they are the Asbestos team.
Asbestos was found in both fireplaces and they were here to remove it. I said they can park on our drive as I won't be back until dinnertime.
On goes the Summer coat and summer hat.
&
Big big sunglasses.
I went and turned on my lights and got the newspaper. I swapped my newspaper for my big stick.
The pillar box topper had changed to celebrate the 60th Wedding Anniversary of a couple in the village.
After turning on my lights.
Let's go to work...
As I walk to my spot. I have a van parked on double yellow lines and on the bus stop.
It was making it difficult to see the cars coming down and seeing me crossing the road.
The man gave me a look when he did leave.
I returned the look, don't worry!
Someone else parks on the double yellow lines opposite as well.
As well as late braking, I had a good morning.
I survived!
Now for coffee!
Coffee and nibble!
Thanked my friend for coming.
Wished her a good weekend.
Goes back home, the Asbestos team was still on the drive.
I parked opposite. They left after half an hour.
Parked back on the ground.
Liquid lunch time.
I had a chat with hubby on his dinner break.
Now to leave the house.
On goes the Summer hat and Summer coat.
Big big sunglasses.
I turned on my lights and walked down to the Charity Shop.
Nice pair of boots↓
Pity they weren't my size.
Wishes everyone a good weekend in the shop.
Walks back, turning on my lights.
Picks up my big stick.
I had a good rabbit with my friends until I had to start my shift.I wished them a good weekend.
Now to start.
Last minute brakers, and stopping in the Keep Clear space didn't help! A few BOINGs given out too!
Finished in one piece.
Back home.
Cup of brew...
I put the food in the oven for tea.
Hubby came back and had a sloppy wet one 💋
It was a nice tea ;)
I looked into today's newspaper.
Now to watch a good film on a Friday Night.
Sleep Tea Time.
All ready for exciting weekend!
