Welcome to my Saturday๐Ÿ‘ฟ
We had a nice lie in.
Followed by a warm hug and brew.

Hubby sorted out what we have in the freezers. As we have to make room for the small turkey for Christmas Day.
We had our second Christmas card
Some nice material arrived just in time to make some Christmas face masks!
Nice cup of coffee...
We wrote out the list for the shopping....
One of our children got the list from next door for his shopping.
I attempted to write yesterday's blog post.
It was taking longer than expected...
(Kept replaying Jesus Jones and some of the other 60's to sing along to!)
Hubby went to get the shopping in.
I bought another sewing table to do up.
Make the most of the time before I go 
BACK TO WORK....

Curtain ties for the living room.
(The colour goes with the curtains!)
Once hubby and son come back.
The tea gets put in the oven.
I just finished the blog when tea was ready to be served up!
We watched one episode of 
Season 11 of Hell's Kitchen...
Then watched↓
I needed cheering up after that.
I earlier was looking through my late dad's DVDs and came across a feel good movie↓↓
Really brilliant film!
Now to watch the final of 
Hell's Kitchen season 11.
The winner was:
Ja'Nel

Bruce  Springsteen  is an American singer, songwriter, and musician who is both a solo artist and the leader of the E Street Band. A native of the Jersey Shore, he received critical acclaim for his early 1970s albums and attained worldwide fame upon the release of Born to Run in 1975. During a career that has spanned five decades, Springsteen has become known for his poetic and socially conscious lyrics and lengthy, energetic stage performances. He has been given the nickname "The Boss".He has recorded both rock albums and folk-oriented works, and his lyrics often address the experiences and struggles of working-class Americans.
He is 71 years old ๐ŸŽˆ
There was only light rain when I left the house.
There is nothing better than singing in heavy rain while driving...
It's a pity I didn't bring my rain mac now.
I had a quick look across the fields of fun
Yet another bad day...
When things are late, then everything goes wrong...
It was still raining when I got into Sexy Beast.
No sitting outside to eat my lunch↓
A good film came to watch at the weekend↓
Pulling my hair out on how Blogger has been updated. Half the time I can't load the pictures up and it is so slow....!
Finally got two blog posts published!
My younger brother phoned.
He has had some more paperwork from my late dad's Solicitor...
WHERE IS MY PAPERWORK????????????
It concerns the fittings of my late dad's house.He is coming round to show me and get me to fill out it out. I am looking forward to filling out the feedback form on this Solicitor.
I am the forgotten sibling!  
The day gets even better when I get a text message saying my child maintenance is going down by £40. The review is in November, let's hope the ex-plum has paid off the nearly £1200 in arrears he owed. 
We are taking part in something run by the council...
30 Days of Fitness Challenge.
As soon as hubby came back. 
Back on the walking we go.
3 lengths of the road. We saw a Police Van come down, and go back up the road....
Now to fill it in:
Now to dish up the Pasta Bake for tonight's tea↓

Then I go to work...
Then we have a problem..
The key gets jammed in the padlock!
Then it starts to rain!
Youngest son comes along and hey presto!
The key is free!
Now to start work with a big tune↓
Once I get finished.
We catch up on Judge Rinder
With some sleep tea
Let's hope I don't have any more bumps in the road tomorrow!
