Saying Goodbye To Our Holiday.

A warm welcome back, folks! For the record, no amount of fasting and prayers will erase the fact that we have lots of work to do. On that note, let’s get started!
I was up early again..
 The sun is coming up↑
 Hubby was loading up his car↓
 Then we go for a walk before breakfast.
 We have the newspaper ready to read on the way home.
 We said goodbye to Simon and Rhona.
One last look of the front.
 
 After an hour and half of driving.
Time for a rest and a drink of coffee!
 I got some magazines to give me ideas on how to do up our house on a budget!
 Driving into the rain
 We arrive back home safely!
 We unpack car.
I enjoy a coffee and nibble before I go back to work↓ 
 I come back to see hubby had mowed the lawn.
 It looked so nice until I noticed some of the grass hadn't been cut near the garden table.
He then told me, he had cut through the cable to the mower.....
Good job the mower was plugged into safety plug!!!!
*Now on the look out for another lawn mower*
The boss of the scafforders came round to see if nothing was in the way so they can start putting up the scafford up tomorrow.
We had some nice tea.
Then round to see my dad.
We got back home after two hours.
It was so nice to get back in our own bed :)

Starting The New Year With A Clean Up!

“I’m a little bit older, a little bit wiser, a little bit rounder, but still none the wiser” – (Robert Paul)

New Year's Day
Welcome to 2019!
We watched the firework display up our road last night 🎆
  We brought the coal,silver coin,food and a glass of whiskey through the front door and out the back door.
Then we watched the London Fireworks on catch up 🎆 
 Finally dragged myself to bed at 1.30am...
It was nice to wake up to a cup of tea..
 Forgot to stock up on the milk yesterday.
Not enough for breakfast.
Wrote a nice list, and out of the house in Sexy Beast. 
 We had a nice CD to listen to...
 Everyone was grabbing the reduced food like it was going out of fashion.
We only got the stuffing balls and some ham slices.
Had to get some backing dark chocolate as it was on offer!
(Never have enough of baking chocolate in this house!)
 
 Once we finished, we went home.
Then we had loads of things to do:
Take down the Christmas 🎄 and decorations inside and out.
Sorted out the garden.
Tidied up the Living Room and Kitchen.
Checked Fridge for out of date food.
We put the shopping away.
Moved around some of my quotes in the hallway.
Moved my hearts from the kitchen to hallway.
 Even Henry came out for the New Year!
 My brother who dressed as a woman last night at a party, returned my Pearls 
While the chicken was cooking in the oven.
I had a quick look at the Birthdays:
"F. R." David (born Elli Robert Fitoussi):
French singer (Words) is 72 years old.
 Hank Williams - American country singer (Cold Cold Heart), dies at 29 in 1953.
 Cesar Julio Romero Jr:American actor (Batman, Ocean's 11), dies at 86 in 1994.

 Simon & Garfunkel's: "Sounds of Silence" reaches #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1966.

We put up the new calenders in the kitchen.

 

  I highlighted the main points for this month.....

It's back to work, and back to school....

Now to enjoy pudding!
