One son got picked up for his job.

We waited for the postman until 10am.

Nothing.

Off to the Sorting office I go.

My dear friend was in the Caller's Office.

There was a 100% turnout for the strike yesterday.

Normally someone would cross the picket line,

when I worked there.

 There was no mail left in the fitting.

I nipped into Sainsburys for some milk.

I had a message that my tracker had been delivered \o/

Back home we go.

Lots of packets for me :)

Some of the things I had ordered.

Now off to finish sorting out the kitchen cupboards at my late Father-in-law's house.

Before we started, we had a coffee and lunch.

He sorted upstairs.

I sorted out all the things in the kitchen cupboards.

I filled up my 5 tool boxes with tools and bits!

Coffee needed again.

Once I finally emptied them all.

Loaded up the car with the tool boxes.

Now to go over with flowers to hubby's mum's grave.

As it would have been her 82rd Birthday tomorrow.

Once hubby get's his inheritance, he is paying for a nice gravestone with all the six names of those in the grave.

Back home.

On looking through my packets.

One seller sent me the wrong item!!!

Sent the Ebayer a nice message.

Now to get the tools in.

I see Hell is opening up!

We had a quick tea.

Now to look in today's newspaper.

Father's Day

I got up early and made breakfast for my hubby!

This is the second Father's Day since I lost my lovely dad :(

Now out to check Sexy Beast's tyre pressures.

Now to change over cars.

Tested hubby's car tyre pressures and fill up for the week with fuel.

Then we all get ready to go out for a meal with hubby's dad.

Picks up his dad. 

Then the fun starts...

Goes through Bewdley,

One tells hubby to go this way, and we end up going the other way to the pub....

At least we got there just in time!

Dads's pic.

Soft drink for me.

Beef dinner for me.

Then puddings...

I had the chocolate cake with cream.

Now to say "Cheers to my dad!"

It didn't even touch the sides when it went down!

We dropped off hubby's dad afterwards.

I snoozed on the way back.

Now to make way for the sofa we are having tomorrow.

Everything in the hall had to be took off the wall.

Kids had to fun trying to take the old sofa out the living room. It got stuck getting through the back door. Two legs had to be sorn off....

Now to hoover up the space where the sofa once was.

Then we had a light tea.

Then got things ready for getting on the Wobbly Work Wheel tomorrow 🎡
