Who Is Getting Home First?

 The only way of catching a train I ever discovered is to miss the train before - G.K Chesterton.
Welcome to my Sunday 💜
Had a much needed cup of tea...
We done all the Heardles.
Yesterday Heardle 60s was:
Today's Heardle 60s was:
Dressed.
Went down for a lovely breakfast.
Quick walk to the seafront for the last time.
One last look out of the bedroom window.
However we hit a small problem with loading up the car. So much stuff, no room for kids!
One son said:
"Maybe you should buying so much from the Charity Shops mum!"
I replied,"Who bought the six foot teddy bear?"
Looked at the train timetable.
Train leaving for home at 11.30, four stops and they arrive home about 3.30pm.
Bought the train tickets and off they went to catch the train.
Let's see who gets home first...
So reminds me of a certain advert...↓
I thanked Simon and Rhona for a wonderful time.
Off we go.
Some decent music to sing along with:
First stop at the motorway service.
At the next motorway services...
It was turn to drive....
It was raining, and ok the car was the same make as Sexy Beast, but I just had my wits about me, and put another 60s CD to calm my nerves....
Off we went in the rain...
Bloody roadworks, crawling at 5 m.p.h and having people overtake me to get in front and then they can't go anywhere!!!
I'm glad I don't drive on motorways very often!
Finally gets home!!!
Unpacks car....
Time to give Sexy Beast a ride out to check it's tyre pressures.
Then to pick up a perscription for hubby, as he had got a chest infection.
Back home to put the washing machine back on.
Salad for tea.
We watched "Every Which Way You Can"
Sleep tea time
Back on the Wobbly Work Wheel tomorrow 🎡

Going Back To It...

I have a large seashell collection, which I keep scattered on beaches all over the world. Maybe you've seen it? - Steven Wright

We had a lovely big breakfast.
Then it was time to load up the car for the journey home↓

One last look at the Tower.
Quick drive down the front.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Our first stop off the motorway
 
 Nice to have a Boost↓
 After another stop,
We got home \o/
 Once we dumped the bags.
We went out in the Sexy Beast.
Off to Homebase↓

 Gets back home.
Light lunch.
Then off to work in the sunshine↓
With some good music↓
  I comes back to put all my clothes away.
Piles of clothes to be washed!
Nice easy tea.
Back on the small wobbly work wheel tomorrow 🎡

My Hero Using His Warm Hands!

I had a chance to rest the voice battery.
Joined the quiet club today.
It was time for 1970's music...
Reached for those big crochet hooks..
We had a little romantic encounter
 over the kitchen sink💓💗💖💟
Me on one foot.
While hubby washed my hair.
Then Enrique Iglesias was singing "Hero" was playing on the radio......
Later on, I had some serious bad pains in my left leg....
Phones 111.
Had to go down to A&E at 1am in the morning...
Getting out of the house in the dark and cold was an experience...
Finally made it...
Now to sit and wait..↓
 We waited about 3 and half hours
 
 Saw the doctor for five minutes....
"Keep taking the painkillers....." I was told.
That was that ;/
back home for 5am.
Now for some much needed sleep zzzz

Pieces Of 8, Then Hop x 3

I was having loads of Friday Feeling as I might be going home today...
Just had to wait to move onto a ward...
Leaving my B3 side room which I have spent 10 days in....
But first breakfast..↓
 Enjoyed the view from my bed...↓
Time for a fish and chips lunch↓
 I was finally moved to the ward.
 I had a new plaster cast added to my leg.
Then had a X-ray on my foot to see how the surgery went.
A light tea↓
 Got dressed ready to go home..↓
When we did get home.
How am I going to get to my bed in the living room with two front door steps, and a plaster cast on my left leg???
After an hour of messing about
I finally made it to my bed at last!
There was a nice card to come home too :)
 Now have to hop like a pirate,
For the part a parrot is needed
And for me to say "Pieces of 8 a lot!"
