Just Not Wearing Enough Lumo To Be Seen!

I always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific  - Lily Tomlin
Welcome to my Hump of the Week πŸͺ
Heardle Time!
Heardle 60s:
My answers:
Breakfast and Brew time.
Dressed.
I don't need my sexy lumo trousers for this morning shift...
Now to leave the house...
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one πŸ’‹ before I left.
I went another way to avoid the 3 ways traffic lights and large queues of traffic!
I have 7 layers on, so I put on my Summer coat with my summer hat.
I goes and get the newspaper.
Comes back to fetch my big stick.
Now to put on my lights!
Lights on,
Let's go to work 🍭
One male car driver totally ignores my big stick out in front of me and drives around my stick!
Plenty of BOINGs given out.
One car had to reverse of the KEEP CLEAR space so I could get the pushchair over the road.
One Range Rover put brakes on and ended up stopping on the KEEP word of the KEEP CLEAR space on the otherside of the road!
I was glad to finish in one piece.
Or did I speak too soon?
I went the same way home, it didn't help a large lorry pulled out on my when I was going round the roundabout, and I brake or I would have been took out. As I stopped dead, he put his hand up as he carried on!
Followed him down to dual carriageway,
I soon overtook him as he was all over the road!
Gets home, and it starts to rain!
Coffee machine goes on.
Now to make tonight's tea...
I got it all made and put in the oven for later!
The Top Ten was from 1986.
They play one song from that year,
That I sung along with, word for word.
Coffee time.
I wrote yesterday's blog all the way up to dinnertime.
Liquid Lunch!
On goes the sexy lumo trousers, as it was raining when I left.
I have to leave early to try and get a parking space.
It was raining, and then I was stuck behind a abdominal load, ie lorry.
Half way to work.
Gets to the car park, someone drives through the EXIT gate, and reverses into the last space.
I gets into the car park, and no more spaces!
Drives round to the other car park and was lucky to get a space there too!
Gets my winter coat and winter hat on.
Grabs big stick, and walks to put on my lights.
I meet up with one friend for a good rabbit!
When it is time to start, I say "Goodbye" to my friend.
The wind starts up as I start my shift.
One car failed to stop on the otherside of the road, and her windscreen nearly got hit by my windy big stick.
I put my stick right down low,
Suddenly cars were stopping on my side.
A Police car suddenly parked further up the road and surprise surprise, everyone was stopping!
Didn't help the rain belting down!
Finished in one piece....JUST!
Now home in the rain.
Gets off those sexy lumo trousers.
Oven goes on.
Time for a brew!
Then carry on writing the blog from the weekend!
Hubby comes home and has a sloppy wet oneπŸ’‹
Tea is ready!
Yum!
Then to look into today's newspaper.
We caught up with some telly that we missed while we were in Blackpool.
Sleep Tea Time.
By the look of the weather forecast,
I will be wearing my sexy lumo trousers all day!
Now to get under that 16 tog duvet!

In need of a coffee....
Lots of stalls to walk around.
Pots for the garden, 50p each.

We walked around twice.
Talked to one woman I know from my Lollypop job.She asked where I had been?
"Covid."
"There is a lot going round,"She said.
Back to the car, moving onto the Recycle Place in Stratford.
I got a nice bit of LLoyd Loom for £5.
On the way home, we got stuck in 5 way lights!
One of the queues when we went past was nearly a mile long.
Goes to the Co-op to get reduced veg for the soup this week.
Nice drink & nibble when we got out!
Gets back home to unload the car.
I start chopping the veg for the Soup Maker.
Puts the shopping away, and all the things we got from the car boot.
Soup time!
Afterwards, it was time to sort out Sexy Beast.
Checked the tyres.
Put a little bit of fuel in.
Then back home.
Took all the washing off the line.
Sorted it all out.
I left hubby to sort out the tea for tonight.
I had a blog post from yesterday to write.

Can't Wait For A Few Seconds More!

Beauty is only a light switch away - Austin Powers.
Welcome to other action packed Thursday ⛔🚘
Nice hug to start this wet Thursday with!
Brew with breakfast.
Opened the curtains....
No sunshine today only rain...
Dressed with added sexy lumo trousers!
I gives hubby a sloppy wet 😘 before I leave.
The boots, winter coat, and gloves goes on.
I put on my lights,
Then waited by Sexy Beast as it was raining alot.
 Now for more fun...🍭
The Car drivers were just not stopping, they did when I lowered the stick to windscreen height!
The rain and wind didn't help.
But wearing my sexy lumo trousers helped me not to get too wet!
Then it happened again!
Just away from 5 minutes from the end of the shift.
I was crossing someone over, and a blond haired woman driving a 20 plate blue Skoda, drove around my hand,up the pavement, and down the road she went!
The  next car driver behind tried it to do it, until I swapped hands with my lollipop stick and moved near the pavement!
Couldn't wait a minute for me to get back on the pavement!
At least she didn't run me over......yet!
Finished.
Now to get the newspaper. 
Gets home.
Puts on the coffee machine.
Moves the Spinning bike into the living room.
Warms up the muscles...
Puts a good film to watch while spinning.
A good half an hour of spinning.
Cool down.
Now for some coffee!
I wrote yesterday's blog post up to lunch.
I had a delivery driver phone me up to try and find me. He was parked in front of the factory next door. I went out to collect my parcel.
"You won't be the last person to try and find my house,"I said to him.
Lunchtime.
It forecasted more rain this afternoon.
On goes those sexy lumo trousers once more.
On goes boots,gloves, and winter coat!
I turn on my lights.
I chat with my friend until it was time for me to start.
I had earlier on put on the local group on FB about drivers not having no patience with me crossing over people.
I did get lots of support from people.
One parent commented...
"I saw your rant earlier....!"
I though he would soon moan if someone knocked over his child!
My friend appeared with his dog.
He had his appointment with the diabetic nurse who told him:
"To walk more,use a smaller plate to eat off!"
He laughed, and said:
"Not a dinner plate just the small plate I eat my sandwiches off!"
He carried on walking the dog as it was pouring down with rain.
Who did I see driving a newer 66 plate van???
My gold digging younger brother!
Actually had a shave as well!
I still had car drivers slamming on their brakes when I lowered my stick down.
I was glad to finish in one piece!
Now back home.
Much needed coffee!
Hubby and kids are having Frankfurter sausages for tea.
I however don't like them at all.
(My dad used to have them and invite hubby and kids over for tea except me as I don't like them)
My tea is coming out of tin instead.
Then it time to carry on watching the rest of "The Wolf of Wall Street".
Quick look in today's newspaper.
