The Bag Will Have To Wait!

The advantage of a classical education is that it enables you to despise the wealth that it prevents you from achieving

Hey Ho the Friday Feeling is back 🍿
It would have been my late mum's 76th Birthday today 🎈
The balloon 🎈 might be late coming,
At least I still remember! 
Has a brew and hug.
Breakfast.
Hubby gets the newspaper for me.
I give him a sloppy wet 💋 before he goes off to work.
Gives a sloppy wet 💋 to one son who has to go to school.

Quick read of the newspaper↓
William Scott "Jack" Elam was an American film and television actor best known for his numerous roles as villains in Western films and, later in his career, comedies (sometimes spoofing his villainous image). His most distinguishing physical quality was his misaligned eye. Before his career in acting, he took several jobs in finance and served two years in the United States Navy during World War II.
Elam played in 73 movies and made appearances in 41 television series. Some of his more memorable performances were in Once Upon a Time in the West, High Noon, Support Your Local Sheriff!, and on the anthology series The Twilight Zone, and on the series Gunsmoke. 
He would have been 100 years old🎈 
He died in 2003 aged 82
 I have my delivery of food from Star Bargains arrive
Light lunch time.
I watched a few episodes of Hell's Kitchen season 7.
Jay with the blue hair is appearing in Season 19 Hell's Kitchen.
I left it running while I carried on sewing the bag I was making.
I sewed on the front detail of the bag.
I sewed the ribbon on the back detail.
Then the sewing machine started playing up!
Grrrrrrrr
Time to take the sewing machine apart!
Got all the dust out, and gave it a good clean.
Put all back together again.
Lost my will to live after that fun.
I will finish the bag tomorrow.
I popped the cards I ordered for next neighbour around to him, as they arrived \o/
Now to get the tea on the go....
Homemade pasta sauce,I added mushrooms, onion, spinach, garlic and chorizo.
I used up 3 types of pasta as well.
We carried on watching season 7 of Hell's Kitchen.
A couple hours later, I became unwell.
Off to bed for a early night for me to sleep it off.
So much for enjoying the Friday Feeling🎈
