Trying To Avoid The Tank Drivers!

It may be that your sole purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others - Anon
Welcome to my Tuesday vibes 🎉
Brrrr it's a bit cold!
Let's do the Heardles to warm up!
Heardle 60s:
My results:
Breakfast and Brew time.
The thermal vest went on as well as the layers!
Hat, scarf, and big coat went on.
Freeezing.....
Uncovered Sexy Beast.
Gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.
Went the long way round to work.
On goes two hats, winter coat, and big winter gloves.
Gets newspaper.
The moon is still out↓
Swaps the newspaper for my big stick.
Goes and turns on my lights.
Woo hoo there is a new pillar box topper!
Turns on my lights.
Now to start work.
Oh dear, the tank drivers are back! 
How can you drive when you can't see out of your windscreen?
A few Boings given out for good measure!
At least the sun was out, it was still a bit cold.
Good job my coat keeps me warm!
Finished in one piece.
Back home.
Coffee machine was put on.
As well as the Dishwasher.
Now to warm up with a coffee!
Now to get out the red pot!
From the Magic Bag,
I used all the leeks, carrots, and Broccoli.
I chopped up some mushrooms, red onions and garlic.
Added to the frying pan with the beef.
Once it was done, in the oven it went.
Peeled the remaining potatoes and made a mash with them once they were done.
I wrote a little bit of blog from yesterday.
Ran out of time.
Liquid lunch time!
Now ready to leave for the afternoon shift.
Talk about bad driving I experienced on the way to work. Car drivers just pulling out of junctions!
Glad to get to work in one piece!
I got my two hats, winter coat and winter gloves.
Went to turn on my lights and got chatting to one friend walking his dog. He is off to Aldi to look for some bargains with is wife.
"Don't spend too much !" I laughed.
Turned on my lights.
I met up with my two friends for a little bit of Rabbit.
One of my friends paid £25 for a round Bread Bin.
Like the one below↓
I did tell him I had a few spare if he wanted one.
It was time for me to start.
The low lying sun is going to be a problem!
I said goodbye to my friends.
Let the fun start!
I had to tell a parent off, as she crossed into the road before I got into the middle of the road.
I said,"They don't stop for me and I have a big stick!"
I still had to give out some boings....for those cars on the otherside of the road!
I finished in one piece!
Back home I go.
Brew time.
Writes yesterday's blog post.
Then got the tea on the go.
Hubby comes home and has a sloppy wet one 💋
Tea is ready ;)
Yum!

Sweating Cobs!

It was a mixed marriage. I'm human, he was a Klingon - Carol Leifer.
Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
I woke on the sofa at 5.50am,
&
Waited for Sleeping Beauty to get up to turn off the alarm....
Opened the curtain....
Sunshine!
Let's play Heardle....
Heardle 60s was:
My son's answers↓
Breakfast and Brew↓
Dressed.
Put my new white dress on...
Now to leave the house...
(It's getting warm)
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
Off to work I go.
Back in 2018, 
I had my final week doing Lollipop job outside Woodfield Middle School.
Now in 2022,
I am doing another Lollipop Job,
somewhere different↓
I put on summer coat 
and go and get my newspaper.
I go back to Sexy Beast,
collects my big stick.
Turns on my lights.
Let's go to work 🍭
BOINGs given out to the cars on the otherside.
Even the local Ice Cream van ignored me walking into the road with my big stick out in front of me!
I will have a little word with him later...
It was getting well warm,
I'm glad I brought my bottle of iced water with me.
Finished in one piece.
Takes coat off and off to get my perscription.
Sees one of the parents in the Chemist.
It is too hot for him to sleep at night,
So he is on sleeping tablets!
He says to me,"You took that coat off quick!"
"I was hot in it!", I replied.
I got my perscription and back to Sexy Beast.
Back home I go. 
Puts on the coffee machine.
I phones up the GP surgery
&
Gets an emergency appointment for later on.
Puts the washing machine back on.
Now to enjoy the shade and coffee outside.
Changes outfits and I am getting far too warm in the dress.
Doctors time.
I go and see the Doctor about the Flooding problem.
It goes from 2 years to 5 years for a smear when you are 50 years old.
I had my last one 2 years ago.
She had a look and prod downstairs.
I am neither pre-menopause or going through it.
Got to book myself into a blood test to find out what's going on!
Books my blood test in for tomorrow.
Now back home for a late lunch!
Light lunch in this heat!
Back out into the heat I go.
Puts on my Summer coat.
Turns on my lights.
A new Pillar Box cover has been put on!
I gets my ice lolly,
Collects my big stick and sits in the park....
My two friends arrived for a rabbit.
We had to move from the bench,
As it suddenly got well hot.
Sweating Cobs was I.
Walks over to the square.
I say goodbye to my friends.
It time to start!
It's bloody warm!
Glad I have my bottle of water on me!
Still giving out the BOINGs to the cars on the otherside of the road.
I was glad to finish in one piece!
Gets that summer coat soon off!
Back home.
In need of a very cold drink with ice cubes!
&
sucking on something cold while writing the weekend's blog posts.
I put the tea in the oven.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one when he comes home💋
Tea is served.
Still Meat Free.
Looks into Today's newspaper.

We watched the news for a few hours.

Let's hope I won't be hearing no more snores.....

It won't be too hot tomorrow
