Reaching The Places Only Coffee Can Get To!

It is easier to fight for one's principles than to live up to them - Alfred Adler
Welcome to my Hump of the Week🐪
Hubby is back to the doctors as he has took a turn for the worst!
I miss most of his coughing during the night due to my ear plugs!
(And his snoring)
Now to enjoy tea and hug!
 I gave everyone their sloppy 💋💋💋
Now to leave the house↓
 Getting warmer↓
 Today's tree shot↓
 A nice lady gave me a cup of coffee while I was doing my 🍭 job↓
It made up for all the cars that were failing to stop for me!
Back home...
To fit in some housework...
Dishwasher and washing machine on...
Light lunch time↓
 Back to the singing along..↓
I had a quick peak in the newspaper↓
 Bill Bixby was an American
actor, director, producer,but is perhaps best known for his role as scientist Dr. David Banner in the CBS science-fiction drama series The Incredible Hulk.He would have been 86 years old 🎈
He died aged 59 in 1993
Michael Hutchence was an Australian musician, singer-songwriter and actor who co-founded the rock band INXS.He would have been 60 years old🎈
 He died aged 37 in 1997.
Heath Ledger  was an Australian actor and music video director. He died aged 28 in 2008.
I looked across the fields of fun!
 I had a meeting after work.
I still had a nice red face.
More singing along↓
It's getting warmer↓ 
 
 One quick drink and out to do lollipop job.
No lying sun to worry about↓
 While car drivers don't stop,
They still put their hands up at me when they go past.
One man said to me, "I should be given a rocket launcher!"
I finished in one piece.
Back home.
I got changed.
Now onto The Happy Place of Work
Cake anyone?
 After I got finished.
I made leeks in ham in cheese sauce↓
 I was just about to go down to do my last job of the day, when my younger brother turned up.
On and on....he went.
Plus another half an hour outside.
I finally got down to work with some great tunes↓ 
 When I finally got home,
I just needed my bed......
Those rollers were kicked off..↓
 I need sleep Zzzzzz

Hold Tight It's Nearly Here

I gave him an unlimited budget and he exceeded it - Edward Williams.
Welcome to my Thursday.
I was so glad the heating was on....
So cold!!!!
 I had cuddles and a tea in bed with hubby.
I gave everyone wet 💋💋💋  kisses before they left the house.
Inbetween tidying the house and taking sips of coffee..
I caught up with the blog.
 Time for a light lunch↓
 Now for a little ride...
 
 It's still cold at double figures↑↑↑
Plenty of singing along
I had a peak in the newspaper↓
  F. Murray Abraham is 80 years old 🎈
 Twins Paul & Barry Ryan are 71 years old🎈
Paul wrote the Barry's 1968 hit "Eloise".
Sadly Paul died aged 44 in 1992.
The rain comes in↓
 I was singing along with "Eloise", while looking across the fields of fun.
 
 
 One day to go until I break up for Half Term \o/
Need some singing to get me into the Friday Feeling (that will soon be here)
 Felt better after that singing!

Now to enjoy a much needed coffee!
I went to The Happy Place of Work....
When I got back home,
The tea was put on and ate...
Now to burn it off singing and working...
 When I came back.
I watched the last episode of:
Off to enjoy a warm bed......

Baking + Kenny = Cakes

When you are content to be simply yourself and don't campare or compete, everyone will respect you" Lao Tzu
Welcome to the weekend!
I woke up and couldn't get back to sleep.
The sun was coming up ↗↗↗
 Downstairs I went...
Loaded up the Dishwasher and put it on...
 I listened to "Sounds of the 60s"
 While I wrote two blog posts...
I just had to singalong with a great song that was being played on the radio...
Now for some marmite↓
 Hubby got up,
Had a nice big 💋 from him..
Later on hubby took our kids to their boxing lessons..
I meanwhile, started to play with Kenny..
 with coffee.
 First cake made↓
Lemon Flavoured Strawberry Sponge Cake
Light Lunch

 Hubby made full use of the sunshine↓
 Chocolate Orange Flavoured Cake↓
 Lavender Flavoured Cup Cakes↓
 I made a spare cake↓
(Half of it will be going over to my father in law on Monday)↓
 I put Kenny to bed.
I was asked, "Why I didn't go to the Tardebigge Church Fete?"
"I was making cakes for a good friend instead!"I replied.
Now for some tea↓
(A nice German meal from Lidl)↓
 We then watched:
We caught up with the news,
Then I fell asleep....
I woke up↓
Time for bed!
