Be Aware Of The Big Stick!

 You don't have to be mad to work here - but it helps -Anon
Welcome aboard to my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
Nice warm hug to wake up to!
Where has the sun gone?
It's Heardle Time....

My son's answers↓
Time for breakfast and brew.
Dressed.
It's too warm to wear those sexy lumo trousers.
Grabbed my rain mac on the way out.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one before I leave.
I go and get my newspaper.
On goes the winter coat with hood and boots.
I turn on my lights...
Let's get ready to roll in the rain!
Some of the car drivers and looking pretty sad.
I had to give out a BOING to a car on the otherside of the road.
I stuck out my big stick, a car went round the bus that was at the bus stop, he had to brake when he saw my stick being out in front of him!
I put my big stick out again and one car had to slam on his brakes...!
Few more BOINGs had to be handed out too.
As least I finished in one piece.
Home Time.
Coffee machine was put on.
Time to do some tidying up!
Unloaded dishwasher for a start!
Now for coffee...
Nice crumpets with coffee :)
I ordered all the balloons and bunting for Wednesday, as it's my youngest son's 17th Birthday!
I wrote half a blog post up to lunch.
Nice salad for lunch..
Now out for part 2.
On goes those BIG BIG sunglasses..
I put on the summer coat.
Turn on my lights and get myself a nice lolly to suck on.
Fetches my big stick.
Now to soak up the rays!
My friends arrive for a rabbit....
I said goodbye to my friends.
Now to start on round 2...
Giving out lots BOINGs on cars on the otherside.
One car stopped in the Keep Clear space so I couldn't get the kids over the road, she moved and said sorry.
Then the cars on my side was doing the Limbo dancing as well.
At least I finished in one piece.
Something to think about...💭
Home time.
Now for a quick brew..
Then I got on with writing two blog posts.
One son went for a job interview at Lidl.
It didn't help his cause by saying he is a bit of Sleepy head 😞
Hubby came home and had a nice sloppy wet one.
Got tea made.
Meat Free Stir Fry.
Yum.

Trying To Lift The Turkey!

Taking advice about marriage from Elizabeth Taylor is like taking sailing lessons from the captain of the Titanic - Joan Rivers
The Hunt for Red October has arrived, 4 days early, so no Xmas Hump for hubby!
I woke up too early for a Saturday and feeling yakky didn't help!
