Your Name's Not Down.....

Truly, I think I should go mad if it weren't for music - Tchaikovsky
We had a bit of a lie-in.
I had to go and do my Job 2 this morning. 
We had a nice cup of tea in bed before I had to get up..
I finally got to open my Birthday Basket from Thursday.
 
 The storm is coming in....
The rain starts....
 The blossom is out on the tree opposite↓
 
 The desk has been cleared↑
(I wasn't invited to his leaving party....)
 I put a reminder out, that I had been in..
Coffee time!
As my mouth was dry from singing along with my music...
The rain is pouring down now.
Hubby and kids had gone food shopping.
When I got back, 
We put the shopping away.
Light lunch...
I had my Amazon Delivery...↓

I went to see my dad afterwork.
Getting better.

 Coffee time↓
 My packet had been delivered.
But not here...
Here is the photo of the packet they sent me:
That's not my bin!
I go up top of the road, and I found my parcel.
I carry on to work.
I asked one co-worker,
"Where is your Christmas Jumper?"
"My Christmas Jumper features a black cat in a coal house!"He replied.
Next funny incident..
One co-worker put icing sugar on someone's else's dark blue jumper.
He tried rubbing it off, and said:
"You only done that to see me rubbing my nipples!".
Gets home.
My youngest son did some cooking at school↓

Now to use the last of the Friday Feeling...
