Happy Hump of the Week 🐫
Brew with warm hug.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
Plugged in the tablet...
I gave hubby a wet sloppy πŸ’‹ before he went to work.
Kids had to get up, to start their on-line lessons for school.
All ready for the interview.
I thought the interview went well.
I will find out later if I got it or not.
Now for some cold fresh air!
I gets the newspaper and my neighbour's magazine.
When I come back, I go around to see my neighbour and take his magazine round.
I need a coffee to warm up!
I write yesterday's blog post.
&
Add some great tunes from my Jukebox.
I just needed a light lunch,so I had a bowl of soup!
Quick read of the newspaper.

Some lovely post came...↓
Then it was time to prepare tonight's tea.
Onions chopped, mushrooms, garlic, spinach, chopped chicken, and chopped tomatoes.
All fried and put into oven.
The noodles will be done in the last 10 minutes.
I tried to find a funny film to watch.
I have it on DVD.
(I am not spending hours trying to find it, and I am not renting it out for £3.49 on Amazon video!) 
I found a great film on Netflix↓↓
Such a funny film, so many stars in it!
Belated Tea at 3.
I then found out  I didn't get the job I went for earlier.
(Let the gloating start!)
The reason was.....I didn't get enough points????????????
My religion is Jedi= -20pts
When I was at Junior,Middle and High School, I didn't stop at school for lunch, I went home. So I didn't have to deal with any dinnerladies =
-30 pts.
Going to be get sent further than Coventry 😢
Oh well, I have another interview on Friday for another job,let's hope that is a successful one.
I gave hubby a sloppy wet πŸ’‹.
Tea is served.
So yummy.
We watched what was going on in America on the news......
Then we watched the newspaper review.
They put the wrong name up.
He is Andrew Pierce from the Daily Mail.
Nice cup of Sleep Tea...
Back on the baking and sewing tomorrow.
By the look of the temperatures tomorrow,
the thermal knickers will be worn too!

Hubby fetched my newspaper for me.
I gave him a big sloppy wet πŸ’‹ before he went to work.

Quick look in the newspaper↓

Nearly took my finger off with the sharp Pizza Cutter (I call it!).
I am going brave my adding a lining to the inside of the bag.

I got the lining sewn on the two main pieces for the bag....
Carry on with it tomorrow.
Only put a small amount of rice in the pan as if you don't.... I would feed a small European country!
There was added kick of Chilli.....

Behind The Painted Smile....

Silence is more musical than any song - Christina Rossetti
I had a very upsetting and stressful day...
(Could it any worst???)
I enjoyed my cup of tea and hug...
  I blew my hubby a πŸ’‹
&
Gave my kids πŸ’‹πŸ’‹
Now off out in the dark↓ 


At least it reminded dry for my lollipop job!
I finished in one piece..
Few cars decided not to stop while I had my lollipop stick up in the air.
Still no sign of reaching double figures↓

I had a coffee & nibble when I got back
Followed by pie for light lunch↓
Just before I left, 
We had a message from the Carers.
They had called an ambulance for my dad,
as he looked and felt dreadful.
My dad was refusing to go in the ambulance.
My younger brother told him to go to hospital as he won't last much longer.
My brother asked me to swing around to our dad's house before I go off to my job.
I however knew the reason why he wanted me to go round,
I would end up in hospital with our dad for 6 hours while he would carry on with his day!
I declined, I do go past and saw the ambulance in the drive....
I needed some postive tunes to keep my spirits up...↓
 I had a quick peek in the newspaper↓

I looked across the fields of fun↓

While I was finishing up my job,
My younger brother kept texting me to say dad hasn't had gone left to live....
(He was finding reasons to live the hospital)
I left with a red face.
More singing to do...↓
  My hubby was having the same texts I was having from my brother!
My dad was suffering from low blood pressure, infection and sepsis.
I enjoyed  quick coffee↓ 
I had to keep it together.
I went down to do my lollipop job.
My boss turned up with a new name badge for me to wear...
She saw how bad the car drivers were.
I stopped both sides of the road,
 One woman driver didn't fancy waiting for me to cross the kids over, put her foot down and nearly took off my arm holding the lollipop stick!
Once I finished,
I tried on my new lumo coat...
Guess what????
It says it was two times as big as the coat I was wearing....
It turns out...
It was two sizes smaller than the coat I was wearing!!!
I couldn't do the top buttons up 
Or
The two buttons at the bottom!
Off it goes....
It's being sent back! 
I said goodbye to my boss.
Back home to get changed.
Off to the Happy Place Of Work..
Once I finished late from being in the factory,
everyone had left....
(I hope they do this tomorrow as I had loads to do on Friday!)  
Hubby done us a nice steak tea.
Hubby and younger son went off to see my dad..for 20 minutes.
When he came back, my dad looked terrible, and was turning yellow.
I went down to do my final job with lots of singing and crying...

My younger brother was trying to pester me.
He first trying to phone me at home.
(I had left for work)
Then he tried me at work..
(I can't get no signel)
He wanted to come around after work.
I was in no fit state to talk to him,
I told him to leave it until the weekend. 
I tried out the hot water by having a hot shower when I got back...
Going to have red panta eyes tomorrow due to all the crying I had been doing...
(At least my dad is hospital being looked after)
At least the Friday Feeling is back tomorrow🎈
