Time To Break Open The Adult Toy Box...

Woo hoo my favourite day of the year so far has arrived.

We swapped cards, and presents.

Celebrating 68 months together :)

Roast Chicken dinner at home.

My hubby put my kitchen trolley together.

(It's a early Birthday present off my older son)

I won a 1960's kitchen cabinet off Ebay.

(It's also a early Birthday present off my younger sons)

Off my brother, who hasn't realised I won it yet :)

We have just had a homemade 3 course meal here.

Opening the adult toy box later.....;P

Hopefully I have a peaceful week at home with my kids..

Yeah right......\o/ 

 

Getting Ready For The Big Day....

It's my all time favourite pop artist's Birthday today.

He is 66 years old, and his name is Peter Gabriel.

I wished him Happy Birthday on Twitter.

Getting the bits ready for tomorrow.

However it's going to be a bit different this year.

No Chocolate, no Cake, but plenty of hugs,kisses and other things ;)

Home made card, home made 3 course meal and Shloer (as we don't drink alcohol still!)

Broke open my newly delivered Mary Berry Cookbook...

Homemade Chicken,Leek & Mushroom Pie cooking in the oven.

Better get on making my hubby's Valentine's card.......

Funky Chicken Dancing!

Woo hoo I have got this Friday Feeling so bad!

I enjoyed a late breakfast and chat at Webb's.

It's wasn't cold as yesterday.

So nobody was Tank driving (see yesterday's blog post about it)

It's the last day of school and work for a WHOLE WEEK!

Valentine's Day on Sunday....

No cake or chocolate for hubby or me.

I still can use my warm hands...;P

Time to celebrate with funky chicken dance moves  in the Living Room

With the curtains  wide open!

 

Tank Driving

Another cold one, -3c.

The car was frozen solid.

So I had to give her a good scrape.

While I was enjoying my first shift of JOB 1

I noticed other car drivers were driving cars like they were tanks.

They only scraped a small slit on their side of the windscreen!!!

Later on, I chatted with an ex-Postman for a good 2 hours in the Library.

We chatted about the times, and people who was at Royal Mail when we worked there.

Last night I had to call out the Paramedics out 

For my hubby, as he had a serious coughing fit.

After a while, he got his breath back.

They asked about the mark on his forehead.

I replied," That my love, is the mark of my thumb-print!"

 

Hot Stuff!

Welcome to my Hump Of The Week.

As part of Visiting Friends Week,

I met up with a good friend in Studley.

Good chat and coffee.

Then off to Waitrose in Alcester.

Free magazine,free cup of coffee and some great reduced food!

I made a lovely hot beef stir fry.

Packed with ginger,garlic, and lots of chillies!

After a few mouthfuls...the hubby shouted for...."Water!"

I calmly ate all mine.

Good job I have a concrete mouth!

 

 

The Fun Of The Ride!

Welcome to Pancake Day.

After the telling off from my older son about NOT using my dash cam.

It was in full use today (after sellotaping the suction cup to the windscreen!)

1. Trip to Morrison s
2. Trip to Coughton (to pick up some eggs, and finding out it was closed :()
3. Back home.
4. Then to a mate's for catch up chat and coffee
5. Then to work
6. Then home.

We as a family have been watching:

 The Dash Cam Adventures Of The Pink Princess.

Just  like watching old family movies (but of my driving, and the scenery!)

I have enjoyed the last of chocolate on my pancakes before the 40 days start of having NONE!

Hubby has already the circled the date on the calendar when he can start tucking into chocolate!

The Dash Cam Adventures.....

 

Giving It Up For Lent!

Back on the wobbly work wheel today.

Got blown about at work, and it rained for the last 15 minutes of my shift.

Had breakfast at the M&S cafe.

Got told off by my older son for not using the dash cam I bought.

"It's no use being at home, you are supposed to use it!"

He is off to Venice next week for a holiday.

If this rain continues here, we will have to be using boats to get round!

Went to the Doctors for a blood test.

The veins in my arm as normal was being tight for giving up blood.

3 test tubes later, I was surprised to find my blood was red not green ;P

I am giving up cake & chocolate for Lent.

Hubby has reluctantly joined in.

He is glad it is only for 40 days.....
