Time For The T-Shirt To Get Wet!

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back? - Steven Wright 
Welcome to a Hot Sweaty Tuesday 👙
It still was well warm when I went back upstairs.
Heardle time.
Heardle 60s:
My son's answers:
Brew with Breakfast.
Got into my white clothes again!
Well warm again!
Outside for some fresh air!
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
Goes and gets my newspaper and next door's magazine. None was delivered.
Goes back to Sexy Beast, to put on the Summer Coat, and big stick.
Turns on my lights.
Now to rock 'n' roll.
There was hardly no traffic!
One dad I was talking to yesterday about not wearing his sun hat, actually did wear it.
It is now getting well warm!
Crossed about 20 parents and children.
Goes into Newsagents again to see if they have got the papers delivers.
Nope.
Goes back to Sexy Beast.
Drives down to Co-op to get my newspaper.
Back home.
Coffee machine was put on.
Down to put my hot feet into cold water.
Coffee time.
It's going to be warm later!
I stay outside until the sun comes round.
It's getting warm now!
Washes my white cotton trousers and puts them on the line.
I leave my summer coat and cap to soak in the bowl of cold water.
Light lunch time.
White trousers had dried.
Takes 2 bottles of water, wet summer coat and cap for round 2.
Puts on damp summer coat with wet summer hat.
Puts on Lights.
Buys a much needed lollypop.
Collects big stick.
Goes into the park and waits in the shade.
One friend arrives.
Now for a little rabbit...
Walks over to my spot.
Says goodbye to my friend.
Hardly no traffic!
Gave one BOING out to one car that drove under my big stick!
One dad wanted a wet t-shirt competition with me.
I replied, "I always win them, and even better for wearing this coat!"
One parent gave me a bottle of water which was nice.
Some parents wanted to get me a ice-cream.
I had to decline as I'm not allowed to eat while I am on duty. 
One Grandparent walked past me and said:
"I miss your dad!"
I replied to him, "So do I!"
While I was crossing a dad over, he was telling is child, they were going to visit his granddad.
The child said "No!"
I replied,"No means yes!"
The dad laughed, and said:
"See if Granddad has any ice-cream!" 
"Don't forget to jump on Granddad!" I replied.
Finished in one piece.
Now back home!
Straight into a cold shower when I got back.
Followed by a much needed ice lolly and cold drink!
Gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
We had a light tea!
Quick look into today's newspaper.

Back downstairs to sleep on the sofa.....

Sweating Cobs!

It was a mixed marriage. I'm human, he was a Klingon - Carol Leifer.
Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
I woke on the sofa at 5.50am,
&
Waited for Sleeping Beauty to get up to turn off the alarm....
Opened the curtain....
Sunshine!
Let's play Heardle....
Heardle 60s was:
My son's answers↓
Breakfast and Brew↓
Dressed.
Put my new white dress on...
Now to leave the house...
(It's getting warm)
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
Off to work I go.
Back in 2018, 
I had my final week doing Lollipop job outside Woodfield Middle School.
Now in 2022,
I am doing another Lollipop Job,
somewhere different↓
I put on summer coat 
and go and get my newspaper.
I go back to Sexy Beast,
collects my big stick.
Turns on my lights.
Let's go to work 🍭
BOINGs given out to the cars on the otherside.
Even the local Ice Cream van ignored me walking into the road with my big stick out in front of me!
I will have a little word with him later...
It was getting well warm,
I'm glad I brought my bottle of iced water with me.
Finished in one piece.
Takes coat off and off to get my perscription.
Sees one of the parents in the Chemist.
It is too hot for him to sleep at night,
So he is on sleeping tablets!
He says to me,"You took that coat off quick!"
"I was hot in it!", I replied.
I got my perscription and back to Sexy Beast.
Back home I go. 
Puts on the coffee machine.
I phones up the GP surgery
&
Gets an emergency appointment for later on.
Puts the washing machine back on.
Now to enjoy the shade and coffee outside.
Changes outfits and I am getting far too warm in the dress.
Doctors time.
I go and see the Doctor about the Flooding problem.
It goes from 2 years to 5 years for a smear when you are 50 years old.
I had my last one 2 years ago.
She had a look and prod downstairs.
I am neither pre-menopause or going through it.
Got to book myself into a blood test to find out what's going on!
Books my blood test in for tomorrow.
Now back home for a late lunch!
Light lunch in this heat!
Back out into the heat I go.
Puts on my Summer coat.
Turns on my lights.
A new Pillar Box cover has been put on!
I gets my ice lolly,
Collects my big stick and sits in the park....
My two friends arrived for a rabbit.
We had to move from the bench,
As it suddenly got well hot.
Sweating Cobs was I.
Walks over to the square.
I say goodbye to my friends.
It time to start!
It's bloody warm!
Glad I have my bottle of water on me!
Still giving out the BOINGs to the cars on the otherside of the road.
I was glad to finish in one piece!
Gets that summer coat soon off!
Back home.
In need of a very cold drink with ice cubes!
&
sucking on something cold while writing the weekend's blog posts.
I put the tea in the oven.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one when he comes home💋
Tea is served.
Still Meat Free.
Looks into Today's newspaper.

We watched the news for a few hours.
