Joining The Convoy!

The longer the title, the less important the job - George McGovern

Welcome to my interesting Thursday 👅

Mmmm nice hug with brew to start the day!

Breakfast.

Dressed.

I gave hubby a wet sloppy 💋 before he went to work.

I hung out my lollipop coat to soak up the sun's rays some more!

Now to go for a little ride is Sexy Beast.

The sun was nice and bright.

Big big sunglasses has to come out again!

I said hello to everyone in the shop while getting the newspaper.

I told the woman I was going to have a job interview later on.

"You have told me already!" Came the reply.

I left rather quick after that!

Hopefully everything will be signed for my late dad's house soon.

My dad's drive has still got two cars parked on it.

Gets back home.

Quick coffee..

I got the yesterday's blog wrote.

Early lunch.

Then to ready for the job interview.

My lucky red hat!

(Can't wait for a haircut!)

Off I go for it...

I was sticking to the 50.m.p.h of the road.

The van and car drivers were not happy.

(They couldn't overtake as the lines were against them.)

I had a nice convoy building up behind me.

Finding somewhere to park was another story.

There was actually a small space outside the building of the interview.

Gets into space, now to back and forward to tidy the car up, there was a bollard behind me, so I had to be careful not to smack the back of my car!

On goes the facemask!

I was shown around where I what I was going to do. The interview was supposed to last 20 minutes. Once I got talking, it last over an hour and 20 minutes.

He asked me if I wanted more hours besides this job.

I said yes.

Then he was talking about the job I had discovered earlier this month.

I know of that job I said.

 His advert↓↓↓

He didn't realise the mistake of £10 per year until I told him.

I was offered the job I went for.

I might be get chance of the other job as well.

Woo hoo!

I start next week :)

Now back home.

No convoy on the way back home.

I filled out form they sent me and sent it back.

(It saves printing it out and bringing it  in with me next week)

They don't have any tabards in my size.

I have four different coloured tabards from previous jobs and not one in their colour.

So I had to order some!  

Belated Tea at 3

I had to drop off the kids help Joe deliver some leaflets. It was a right pig to park somewhere to drop them off. Cars right up by arse didn't help.

I threw off my bobble hat in temper...it was going that bad!

Having too much hair doesn't help either!

I might have to get hubby to get the hair trimmers out....

Finally gets home!

Hubby comes back from work.

Nice big sloppy 💋 off me.

Nice steak and chips tea to celebrate getting the job :)

Judge Rinder time.

A bit of a lie-in...

AAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!  

*That's put paid to getting the Dining room finished!*

I did more washing and put the dishwasher on.

Am I going to win this item on Ebay...???

30 seconds,20 seconds, 10 seconds, 5 seconds....

Someone comes in and bids on the item by a £1  

I lose! :(:(:(

This day is going from bad to worst! 

At least we put the red rug down in the Dining room...

 I searched the internet,

Found another item (Like the one I lost earlier on EBay) on FB marketplace in Kidderminster. I just hope the price goes down a bit on it.....

Then I found a smaller version in my home town, just got to sort out the delivery part.

*On top of all this fun*

Back on the Wobbly Work Wheel🎡

 

 

Every Which Way But Loose Again...

Welcome to my Monday's Wobbly Work Wheel...

"Smile Jaws, it's Monday!"

 The alarm went off....

Out I jumped for a hot shower...🚿 

Now for tea... ↓

 Had breakfast...

Now to wear the new t-shirt...

I left the house in plenty of time to do the updated Safeguarding...

 

 The normal way I go to school, turned into a trail of cars not moving. The blue car in front of me, did a 3 point turn and went past me.

I did the same.

She carried on up the Bromsgrove Highway..

 I went through  Tardebigge to get to the Hanbury Turn Pub. When I reached the pub to turn left, the blue car was in front of me!

She carried on in front, through Stoke Prior and then turned off soon after into the Industrial Estate.

Her blue car and my red car, reminded me of a certain advert....

I get to where I had to go, with ten minutes to spare.

The car park not open...

 

 

 Table for one?

After I finished the updated Safeguarding.

I had to travel to the otherside of Bromsgrove for a job interview.

I start on Saturday morning, to see if I can get up early.....

Popped in to see my dad, and pick up my kids.

 Finally got home!

 Had a light lunch...

I had a email from one of the jobs I applied for during the six week holiday.

I have a job interview next week :)

After I did Job.

Made the most of sitting in the garden with the sunshine..

 

 I had a nice stir-fry.

Got the necessary things to make my 7th Wedding Anniversary card tomorrow.... 

I have doors closing and more doors opening....
