Welcome to my ThursdayπŸ‘©
Swelling slowly going down around the knee at last \o/
Brew with a warm hug.
Breakfast.
Hubby fetched the newspaper...
I gave him a wet sloppy πŸ’‹ before he went to work.
One son also had a sloppy πŸ’‹ before he went to school.
I went round to see my neighbour to give him his magazine.
He was glad of the chat.
He wanted me to get him a great boxset of Amazon....↓
I told him I have the whole 5 series on DVD he can watch...
I found 1,2,3 and 5 series, just need to find series 4....
 You don't realise how many DVDS you have when you have to find the one you want!
Aha! Found it.
Now to put the living room back....
 Quick coffee..

Quick look inside in the newpaper.

When A Eyeroll Isn't Enough!

Friday. The golden child of the weekdays. The superhero of the workweek. The welcome wagon to the weekend. The famous F word we thank God for every week - Anon  
The Friday Feeling is back again \o/
After such a late night....
It was nice to have a little bit of lie-in..
We had cuddles in bed....
Then all the windows got opened up!
We got ready to leave...
Fresh air time..
 We went round to my dad's who is still unwell.
We changed his duvet covers on his bed.
I took my Henry round as his hoover is crap.
We had to wait for the plasterer to give us a quote on some water damage from one of the pipes in the bathroom.
 Nice cup of coffee.
I chatted with the Plasterer for over an hour....
We gets back home for coffee and nibble↓
 Playing army games in the garden↓
I went to my job.
One co-worker was moaning about there was nothing at the end of the titles of "The Avengers Endgame".
He watched it last night in 3D.
(So did I)
He got upset at the end.
(So did I)
He was pissed the cinema staff told him there was nothing at the end of the titles...
(I knew already) 
I finished mopping the floor, added the yellow sign saying:
One co-worker says:
"You should have rinsed out the mop head before mopping the floor".
I reply with:
&
"I had to get the tea stains off the floor!"
Then she just walked straight onto the wet floor....
I left.......the building...
I needed to get my Superhero trailer finished.......as Superhero Day is nearly here...
After 3 hours of trying to match the trailer to the brilliant soundtrack...
