Welcome to my TuesdayπŸ‘»
Still up at normal time.
We did the Heardles,

My answers:
Time for Breakfast and Brew.
The thermal vest goes on.
Then it was time to get the newspaper.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 😘
I gets the newspaper and comes back home.
I had have a normal coffee...
Then time to make some soup.
While that was being made,
I was making tonight's tea.
Just as I was chopping up a red onion.
The Soup Maker's plug was disconnected, then it jumped off the surface and poured all the soup over the floor!
Great!
It went everywhere!
I just had enough soup left in the soup maker for today!
Cleaned up the kitchen.
Carried on making tonight's tea.
Once that was done, put it in the oven for later.
Time to have the remaining soup for lunch!
Did some more housework up to Tea at 3.
My coffee maker has been delivered to my drop off point, so picking that up tomorrow, woo hoo :)
Put the oven on for tea later.
Wrote some more blog posts up to when hubby came home and had a sloppy wet one πŸ’‹
Tea is ready.
Yum!

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Nice and dark out there....
Heardle Time.
Heardle 60s:
My answers:
Breakfast and Brew Time.
Thermal vest goes on, as well woolly leggings and my long jumper dress....
Time to leave.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one πŸ’‹ before I leave.
On goes two hats, winter coat and gloves.
Gets my newspaper.
Collects my big stick.
Now to turn on my lights.
Once I put on my lights.
Off to work I go 🍭
There is some work at the Angel light opposite me. The light hasn't been on since the big switch on last Friday.
There were a few cars had to brake quickly!
A few BOINGs were given out.
I was getting well warm in all my layers!
Off went the Panda Hat and one glove!
Opened my coat to let the steam out!
Finished in one piece...
I went down the Co-op to get bits for my homemade soup.
(The Christmas Tree) in the car park.
I got my bits and headed home.
Coffee machine went on.
Now for some housework.
Loaded up Dishwasher.
Puts the bins out for tomorrow.
Put the shopping away.
Put the soup maker on.
Now for coffee..
Once the soup was done, in a big jug it went.
That should last up to 3 days!
Ticked off things I have got for everyone for Christmas.
Wrote out the list of people for Christmas Cards.
As of every year the list goes down every year.
I will have to send off the Christmas Cards to people who live outside the Redditch soon.
I am making a Fake Faux Pom Pom wreath.
I have ordered some Pom Poms in the sale.
I hope they come before Christmas.....
Now for some exciting liquid lunch...
Chicken, Sweet Potato, Mushrooms and Parsnip Soup
Yum!
Now out to enjoy the afternoon shift! 
I only put on one hat, winter coat and winter gloves goes on. Turns on my lights, and returns to sit in Sexy Beast until my friends appear.
One friend appears and we go have a rabbit in the square. We are then joined by another friend and his dog.
The time goes on, and then it's time for me to start my shift.
I say goodbye to my friends, and so I start.
Here we again.....
Refusing to stop on the otherside of the road.
Pity I haven't got a much longer big stick!
Then it's stopping in the Keep Clear space.
I was offered free milk by one of the houseowners on the otherside of the road.
"Yes Please!" I say.
Finished in one piece.
Collected my free milk and back to Sexy Beast.
Back home I go.
Now for a cup of brew.
I put the multi-coloured pasta in a saucepan of  boiling water.
Once that was done, added the homemade tomato sauce, gave it a big stir.
Hubby came home and a had a big sloppy one 😘
Tea was served up.
Everyone ate their's \o/

Younger son comes back and says sorry for being moody yesterday.
He says: "Once he is 18 years old, (Next June), he is moving out and going to live with his friend, in Bromsgrove!"
That was nice to drop that on me.
