The Vultures Are Circling...

Children learn more from what you are than what you teach - W.E.B Dubois
Welcome to my Hump of the Week🐪
A nice tea in bed with a warm hug↓
I gave hubby a nice wet 💋 before he left the house.
I have things to do this morning...
Out in the fresh air..↓
 It's getting warmer↓
  New sunglasses on↓

I got the newspaper,
Filled up Sexy Beast .
Next stop another visit to the Man's Cave↓
  I said to the Sale's Assistant who served me:
"I went to school with  your mum!".
(she blushed,and went to get my order)
When she came back, 
I said,"I stalk your mum on FB."
She said,"My mum is on holiday."
I replied, "A nice break away from this town does wonders for the soul!" 
My nice items↓
 
 Quick look at the newspaper before I get out of Sexy Beast. 
 The temperature is going up↗↗
I sorted out the back garden.
All the cabbages had been ate by caterpillers...
The remaining cabbages were put in the composter.
The washing machine went on 3 times.
Making full use of the sunshine.
All the washing went on the line.
Just keeping a eye on the weather.
I picked some blackberries out in the front garden, and picked the rhubarb that was growing in the back garden.
 Hopefully I will have a second batch of rhubarb later↓
 Early lunch↓
 I had some nice post↓
 
 After I came back from work,
The Rhubarb,Blackberry, Lemon & Ginger pie was put in the oven.
After our main meal,
It wa ready to eat↓
 After I watched Law and Order,
Off to work I go with some great music↓
I had a phone call from my younger brother.
Moaning on the keepsafe being broken by my Dad's carers for the second time. He wanted me and the prodical brother to pay towards another one!
I laughed.
My response was:
"He, and the prodical brother earn loads more money than me, when I earn the same as them , then I will put money in the pot."
He didn't like that reply.
Further on with the conversation,
"My younger brother is having my dad's Rover SD1 car that is in the garage, while prodical brother had now been given my dad's BMW!!!"
Feels like the vultures are circling... 
I was glad to get home!
Prodical brother was stopping over at my dads for the night, so we didn't need to go over!
After I had my sleep tea...
It was nice to enjoy Hump Day!

Using More Blue Chalk!

The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do - Walter Bagehot
We had a sort of lie in...
When I woke up, 
After breakfast,
I found someone selling half a tub of blue paint. I made her an offer, and won it \o/.
Now to leave the house↓
 It's getting warm again↓
 We pick up the paint.
 Then off to Aldi for this week's shopping.
 Pity I don't drink↑
 Only the best toilet roll↑
 I got a spare mop too.
Back home for lunch.
Now for day two of snooker.
Off we go
 Hubby's match starts at 3.30pm
 He puts up a great fight but loses:(
Nice table set up↓
Drowning our sorrows↓
Gets back home.
  It looks like its going to rain.
I will leave repotting of the plants for tomorrow.
I caught up with this blog.
Later on one of my favourite films were on:
Hubby got his work things ready..
I just have 2 jobs to do tomorrow...
I have still got to mount the Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡

Getting The House Looking Better..

“A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .....
a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black
lace bra... ”
Pamela Redmond Satran
I woke up far too early for a Sunday.
 
 I went to job before it got too warm
 I had some great tunes to listen to.
When I get back,
The lamp has been put up
 &
The curtain rail...
Hubby had his new toy to play with↓
 Hubby goes and fetches something for the bedroom...↓
I get the hallway sorted out.
I order some new coat pegs from B&Q.
They are ready to be collected...
 
I go and try to get the bedroom sorted, while hubby plays with his drill...↓
Now to enjoy more cake!
 
 My brother collects a Radiator cover for me.
That goes in the hallway↓
 I did last minute washing,
Hung it on the line to dry.
At least we have some breeze today...
(Really needed it yesterday)
Hubby has took some time off to get this bedroom sorted once and for all...
I however, have to still mount that Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡

No Rest For The Wicked!

I welcomed Sunday with open arms.
I had a much deserved lie in.
Now to tidy some of the house.
Washing machine on.
Walked the dog.
I popped into a Psychic Event.
I saw a clairvoyant, who said my late mum is not happy.
She said she will never be happy.
Oh dear.
So later on, I put some red roses on her grave to make my late mum a little bit happy.
Got my 3 uniforms ready for the start of the wobbly work wheel tomorrow.
Now to have a very early night, as I have a meeting with a 5am alarm clock!
