Pass Me A Crystal!

The way I look at it, I'm a human being first and gorgeous second - Harvey Fierstein

Welcome to my Monday 😁

Nice warm hug for me.

(Kept waking up due to pain in right knee!)

Brew with breakfast.

No wobbly work wheel for two wheels \o/

I gave hubby a sloppy wet one before he left for work.

I have jobs to do around the house.

The coffee machine went on.

Sorted through two baskets of clothes, one son had bought down. Some clothes I had washed last week, and he hadn't even worn.

One basket went back upstairs to his room.

Washing machine went on.

Poured the coffee and took it upstairs.

Sorted out all the clothes I washed over the weekend.

My youngest son was coming out with me for a ride to the Salvation Army Charity Shop.

Just abouts got a parking space opposite.

Gets the newspaper from the Co-op.

Waits for the Charity Shop to open.

Once open, I gets some bargains.

Back to Sexy Beast with them.

Back home.

Unpacks the bargains.

I bought a Candlewick bedspread for £3.

Looks like this but in purple.

Nice beach mat for £1.

I put the soup maker on.

Both sons were off to do and take part in a Massage Course.

I will see them later afterwards, as I am finishing my Crystal course.

Light lunch time...

Now to drop the pot of lavender to my parents.

Nothing has been removed since Mother's Day.

Now off to finish my Crystal Course.

I answered the questions and put the crystals where they are supposed to go.

Passed!

I have a good book to read tonight.

Thanks Joe for a great course.

Brings kids home. 

Cleansed my crystals.

Tea at 3.

I dropped off my son's to help Joe delivering his leaflets.

Who did I see wearing just a black vest driving his van on the otherside of the carriageway????

My younger gold digging brother.

He best not to get too near to me...

I bite!

Sorted through my Tarot cards up to making tea.

Meat free time.

Yum.

On goes the the thermal vest.

My new gas cooker was being delivered between 9am -11am.

Now to drop off son at work.

Dropped off son.

Then to get some petrol for Sexy Beast.

Every pump was being used when I got to the Petrol Station. There was a panic buying of petrol last night in Redditch!

The cashier couldn't believe how many people he served last night for petrol. I just shook my head and paid for my small amount of petrol! 

I gets home. 

 Coffee Time

The Gas Engineer we normally use to install our cookers was free at 1pm to uninstall and install the new cooker.

I had a blog post to write....

The new gas cooker arrived in the time it was due.

3 years ago, I had my old cooker fitted in.

We had a early lunch.

The Gas Engineer came.

We had a catch up since last time we met.

He caught Covid from going to Cheltenham Races in March 2020.

He was that bad for 4 months, and lost 4 stone in weight. His brother also caught Covid and has scaring of the lungs.

Then he showed me how much his gas and electric bill is going up next month....

He uninstalled the old oven and installed the news one.

We paid him and thanked him for coming.

Now I have to go my Tarot/Crystal Course.

Really good time was had by all.

The group sung "Happy Birthday " to me.

We practiced Chakra Healing again.

I bought some more nice incense.

Got a lift back home.

Finished off blog post,

While hubby christened the new oven.

Tea time.

We watched another episode of "Fame" season 2.

I recognised a young actor who appeared in Godfather 2 and City Slickers.

Bruno Kirby.

We packed the overnight bags.

Left the house...

We got to the nice hotel.

Reception area.

The Receptionist was so friendly.

She asked,"Where we had been for Tea?"

"Home," I replied.

We signed for the key.

Now to explore the room!

Now to go downstairs for a drink.

We had a look about before we went back to our room.
