Reaching For Those Big Big Sunglasses!

Back on the wobbly work wheel
Wow the sun was out nice and early.
Quite warm,not yet warm enough to strip some layers of clothing off!
Enjoyed a late breakfast at Webb's.
Had to help James's get all his items packed up for his 3 course meal he is making tomorrow for his "Chef Of The Year" final.
Nothing to eat after Midnight,
As I am ready for my operation at Worcester Hospital early tomorrow!
12 months I have had to wait for it.....

Having A Taste Of Morocco

Woo hoo we have reached Sunday.
Cup of tea and a nibble in bed, can't be bad!
We bought our meat order for the next two months.
Trying to fit it all in the freezer, that was so much fun fun fun!
Bumped into an ex-co worker from my old JOB 2 again.
At a Community Open Day at the Redi-Centre.
It feels like I am being Stalked!
Watched my son practice making his 3 course meal for "Chef Of The Year" for school.
He chose to do Moroccan themed  meals
The final is on Tuesday. 
He completed them all under 3 hours.
I did my share, by loading up the dish-washer!

More Big Shoes For Some Young Big Feet!

Welcome to Saturday.
Had lots of loving from hubby, before we left the warm bed!
While my kids went to the Dentist with hubby.
I enjoyed M&S coffee, toast and chat...
Got some PE trainers for one of my youngest son (His feet have got to adult size 10)
( He is only 10 years old!!) at a bargain price from a Charity shop.
Got all of the ingredients for my son's 3 set meal for his Year 7 's "Chef Of The Year"
The run through is tomorrow and the actual final is on Tuesday.
Wow...
We were given 2 chest of drawers for nothing!
So tomorrow, I won't have to cook any evening meal!
I could get used to this :P

They're Being Tight Again!!

Welcome to crazy Friday
My children was so happy with their cowboy outfits.
The happy cowboys were dropped at school
Survived the first shift of Job 1
Caught up with my blogs....
Then it was time to give up some blood for another blood test.
Arms wasn't giving up a drop...
3 times the Nurse tried, no vein was willing.
Try again in 2 weeks!
Someone parked too close to my driver's door in the Asda's car park.
So I had to climb over the passenger seat, double somersault, with a leg flick to finish!
Good job no one was watching, it would have made their day!

Found A Good Use For The Cowboy Whip!!

Welcome to a cold, dry Hump Day.
Potty mouth parent, attempted to cross over the road without my help.
It stood in the middle of the road for a few minutes, before any car would let him over the road.
Shame!
I have been chasing money owed,On the phone for a few hours!
Spent time tidying up the house!
I sorted out my cake ingredients cupboard.
Even found a chocolate bunny (From Last Easter) and two chocolate Santa's from last Xmas!
Bagged up the ingredients for James's cooking lesson tomorrow.
Most of their cowboy accessories have arrived for Friday.
The leather cowboy whip won't be took in, that's being warmed for use on hubby on Friday Night!

Nice To Feel Wanted!

I have had a mixed bag today.
Woo Hoo I managed to get a Doctor's appointment for this week.
Visited Dentist ( So I could get a letter for the Hospital to take out the tooth next to the wisdom tooth)
Cost £18.
Great.
Grabbed a quick take away M&S coffee.
One parent decides I am not really needed to cross the children over twice  a day.
(He is sulking as I am having 3 days off next week to recover from the Operation)
"There are traffic lights they can use to cross the road, so you ain't needed!" He said.
(Nice to feel wanted!)
Majority of parents want me there, only a minority don't.
Damned when I am there, Damned when I'm not.
Let's hope Hump Day tomorrow is a lot better!
