Keeping Warm With The Christmas Jumper

Mediocre men often have the most acquired knowledge - Claude Bernard.
Welcome back to the Friday Feeling๐ŸŽˆ
I try not to think about the Friday 13th...
Normally something happens....
Now to start the day with tea and hug↓

 Now to wear the Christmas Jumper and Santa Hat↓
I gave everyone sloppy ๐Ÿ’‹๐Ÿ’‹๐Ÿ’‹ before I left the house↓
 
  It's still cold but not raining just yet!
We had the results of the General Election..
 No yellow trousers to wear..
Some cars are still failing to stop for me...
(At least I am on the pavement when they do!)
Finished in one piece!
Now off for a Webbs Experience...
Singing along is a must!
Someone had parked in my B3 space.
I noticed some nice parking in the car park..
 

Coffee and nibbles...↓

I had a good yak with my friend..
Then off to work I go singing along...
I had a quick look in the newspaper

 I had a look over the fields of fun↓
 
 The kids enjoyed my Christmas Jumper
I finished on time and without a red face.
More singing along to be done...
 
 
 Coffee and nibble time↓
 
 Back out to do Lollypop ๐Ÿญjob
 One Hermes driver didn't want to wait in the queue of traffic.
I had my lollypop stick out waiting to cross over, when he drove on the wrong side of the road, I had to yank my stick back before he would have broke it.
It's a good thing I wasn't in the middle of the road crossing the parents and kids over the road at the time!
It's getting dark↓
 I finishes in one piece.
Gets home.
Now off for the final visit of the week to the Happy Place of Work.
Once I finished,
I had a quick tea..
Now for the final bout of singing of the week..
Once I got back.
We packed a bag and out we went..↓
 
 
 
 
 
 
 I went out like a light soon afterwards....

Leaving A Sunday Trail...

“As long as there was coffee in the world, how bad could things be?”
Cassandra Clare,
City of Ashes
Welcome to a sunny Sunday!
 No lie-in for me...
So much to cram in...
 At least the sun is shining๐Ÿ˜Ž
I go to work with some good tunes to listen and sing along to ....
 
It was nice to see the sunshine again when I finished↓↓↓
 I leave hubby and one of my sons to errect my new greenhouses...
I take the other son shopping...
 
 Big big sunglasses time ๐Ÿ•ถ
When I finished my shopping, I got a takeaway Mocha using my new cup!
I put it in the trolley, and told me son to make sure it doesn't fall over in the trolley, while he pushed the trolley.......
I went to pay for sandwiches for him and his brother, when I noticed a large coffee trail from when he had been standing to further up the shop to where he was standing........
It was a massive eye roll moment!
One of the staff cleaned up the coffee trail.
I was not happy, I was left with half a cup of Mocha!
I gets home to crack the whip....
 No sandwiches for us↓
 It was nice to sit and enjoy the garden!
 
 
 I went round to see my dad.
While there, he had his telephone on loud speaker....
Very interesting conversation with his lady-friend.....
"I could stop over and sleep on the sofa,"My dad said.
"I'm not have your frame ruining my carpet!"She replied to that.
"I have changed my telephone line supplier, the one  my late wife signed up for,and it's getting expensive...." My dad said.
She replied, "Well your late wife did make some bad choices.......!!!!!"
I had heard enough, I said goodbye to my dad and left!
I got home to put the evening meal in the oven....
Then to catch up with the Birthdays, while everyone had showers....
