Escaping The Snores!

On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key - Scott Adams
Welcome to the Friday Feeling 🎈
It is my late dad's 81st Birthday 🎈
He will be having balloons later 🎈🎈🎈
Now for Heardle Time:
Heardle 60s:
My son's answers:
Time for Breakfast and Brew.
Then I got dressed.
Gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before he went to work.
I had some balloons to pump up!
Puts them in a black bag and then into Sexy Beast.
Both kids were being dropped off at work.
Gets the newspaper.
Drops off kids.
Travelling to my coffee date.
Stuck in Traffic lights which was stuck on red!
One black Range Rover sits behind me,
overtakes me, stops in the right hand lane, coming up to the big island it suddenly pulls in front of me!
FFS!
Then I follow it up to traffic lights, once the lights change to green, it overtook all the traffic in the left hand lane, then had trouble getting back in the lane when it turned into one lane! 
Finally gets to B3 in one piece! 
Now to have a look around.
Looked in Hobbycraft.
The dreaded C word!
I didn't buy anything.
Now off for coffee!
I used my free coffee tokens for it!
(Saved £2.99)
My friend arrived.
(She gave me a slice of her Birthday Cake to eat later)
I had the glutten free bread for my toast.
(Having normal bread next time!)
Wished my friend a great weekend.
Now to travel to see my dad with his balloons.
Bromsgrove was packed with traffic on the way.
Coming up to the big island. 
Traffic coming my way, a motorbike overtook all of the traffic and was coming towards me, I had to pull to the left so it could get past!
Everyone was trying to race each other when I got on the dual carriageway.
Finally gets to see my mum and dad.
Now off home.
Oh dear, gets back, 
First there is a Council van parked over the neighbour's part of the drive.
Tries to get on my drive and there is a car already parked there!
Great!
No tax on it either!
I go round and see my neighbour.
The car belongs to his son, who is at work.
I stay and have a chat for an hour.
Gets back home and starving!
A bit early for Tea at 3.
&
to enjoy some Birthday cake!
Lovely!
I put in the food in the oven for tea tonight.
Joe popped in after dropping off younger son.
Nice chat with coffee.
I move Sexy Beast to where my hubby parks his car, so the neighbour's son can reverse the car off my half of the drive.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 when he came back.
Tea is served.
Yum.
Now to look into today's newspaper.

Hubby and son then went out to do some food shopping.
I got on writing yesterday's blog post.
Hubby came back,
He put the shopping back.
He was feeling tired.
I took my Sleep Tea upstairs.
Once we went to bed,
The loud thunder snores started,
Even with ear plugs in,
I could still hear them...
Up I got and on the sofa I went!

Then puts on my summer coat.
Puts on my lights.
Now let's get it on...🍭
Got some cars to do the in famous emergency  stops ⛔
I got complimented on not looking old enough to have a 17 year old son.
Which made me smile :)
Few more BOINGs handed out as well!
At least I finished in one piece.
Back home.
I put on coffee machine on.
Kenny came out for another play.
Puts cake in oven.
Now to get on with the balloons and bunting outside.
Coffee time.
Had salad for lunch.
Birthday boy came back from doing his exam.
He opened his presents.
Now out to do Part 2.
It looked like rain.
So I put on my winter coat.
Turned on my lights.
Bought a ice ice lolly,
Fetched my big stick,
And sat in the square waiting for my friends to arrive.
None of my friends came.
So I had a chat with the parents instead.
Now to do Part 2.
I had my big stick raised up.
One grey car with it's sunroof open when under the stick, I could have just tapped it to shut it for them....
I'm not quite that nasty just yet!
Someone parks on the double yellow lines so I can't see what is coming up the road!
My friend appeared with his dog with just 10 minutes left of my shift.
More BOINGs given out.
Finished in one piece.
My friend and I walked back to Sexy Beast and had a jolly good rabbit for 30 minutes.
I said goodbye to my friend.
Home I go.
Now to get on to finish the Birthday cake.
Just over an hour.
It's done!
Birthday boy loved it!
Hubby came home and had a sloppy wet one.
Joe came and gave Jack his card and presents.
We thanked Joe for coming.
