Back To The Bingeing!

Never try to keep up with the Joneses.It's much cheaper to drag them down to your level - Quentin Crisp 

Welcome to my Thursday 💪

Nice cuppa and hug to start the day!

Breakfast.

Dressed.

I got kids up ready for school.

Gave a sloppy wet 💋 to hubby before he left for work.

Gave all kids their 💋💋 before they left for school.

I went outside for some fresh air...

First coffee of the day.

I started on writing my blog post from yesterday.

Still no sign of my paint order!

I checked on the delivery, and they tried at 10 to 7am to deliver it!!!

Funny I didn't hear no knock on the front door!

I gets onto customer services to explain where my house is, and gave them my phone number!

Try again tomorrow!

At least Amazon know where my house is!

My white vinegar arrived!

A bit of that went in the washing machine.

Soon after some Baking Soda went in.

It seems to have done the trick!

When I finished writing my blog post.

Just in time for lunch!

While I was loading up the dishwasher there was a knock at the front door!

The Plumber had arrived to do the check on the boiler \o/

"You found me!" I laughed.

Before heading up the stairs:

I told him there was some buzzing coming from the boiler at night, and it's not the buzzing from my rabbit either!

He laughed.

When he came downstairs, he said the buzzing was the fan from the boiler.

I told him "It's about time the Council replaced the 15 year old boiler by now."

He replied,"It will be soon."

He checked the oven, and the gas meter under the stairs.

I thanked him for coming and said goodbye.

Tea at 3

I fried some beef, with mushrooms, onions and garlic.

Rolled out the pastry, added the bird.

In the oven that went.

While looking on Netflix,

I found a good series right up my street.

The amount of stars in it.

There are 3 seasons to binge on.

A new season started on ITV last month.

Time for pie!

One of teachers at my kids's school is leaving just before Easter.Both kids like him alot.

Ordered a Leaving Card and present.

As when favourite teachers leave, they leave a big hole.

My son is doing a English exam on Creative Writing on the subject Lost tomorrow.

We put our heads together and added more ideas to the great story.

His teacher said earlier that his story reminded him of the tv programme "Lost".

I never watched it. 

It just happens to be on Disney +

So my son started to watch the first series...

(Bingewatching) 

Hubby was visiting his dad.

I had some of my own bingewatching to do...

I had my sleep tea earlier than normal.

Hubby came back to have a sloppy wet 💋

He gave me today's newspaper.

Hubby started to fall asleep.

I sent him off to bed as I had the final episode to watch.

Brilliant ending to the first series \o/

Time for bed...

Or so I thought.

I couldn't nod off due to excess snoring.

Back to the sofa for me...

Oh well.....

Friday Feeling is back tomorrow 🎈

 Welcome to my Tuesday 👅

Brew with a warm hug.

Breakfast.

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

I meanwhile went back to bed....

Later on I rose from a very warm pit.

I got both kids up and their remote learning starts tomorrow.

Time for me to get some fresh air..

I got the newspaper.

Back home.

It's still not very warm..

First coffee of Lockdown 3.

I mix the rice, with milk, butter and sugar and put it in the oven on a low temperature.

I keep stirring it every half an hour.

Light lunch.

Quick look in the newspaper.

 I wrote yesterday's blog post.

Put the pies in the oven ready for tea later.

I watched Boris at 5pm.

I gave hubby a sloppy 💋 when he returned.

Tea was ready!

Followed by the rice pudding.

I needed to charge up our tablet for the job interview on Zoom tomorrow.

New Year with a new job (I hope).

Took some apps of it and it is now running a lot faster.

Sleep Tea Time.

No lie-in for the kids tomorrow.

Back to school learning via Teams.

It looks like my hubby will be working from home shortly.

Better move my sewing machine out of the way!
