Finding The Bed!

People do not change, they are merely revealed - Anne Enright
So much for a lie-in.
It didn't help we slept on the sofa overnight,as we couldn't get to the bed....↓ 
 They played my son's Birthday request (for next Saturday) ...on our local radio station.
They even played a song from one of his favourite artists...
Now out in the sexy beast↓
 
 I drop off my dad's newspaper to him.
Then I dropped off my kids at the meeting with their dad.
(After not seeing him for 18 months!)
I come back for coffee and nibble↓
 After nearly three hours of trying to put the first wardrobe together.
(Not getting very far!)
We went to Dunelm and Lidl to keep our mind off the bedroom for a moment!
 We put up the new voiles in the bedroom window...
 We go and see my dad.
The old wardrobe is waiting to be collected by my younger brother...↓
 We moved the stuff off the bed.
Once we got the first wardrobe made up, the wardrobe rail breaks off!!!!
Back onto Amazon to get a new stronger one!
Back to sleep in the bed at last!
(With the ear plugs!)

Visiting Old Friends!

“Oh my sweet Saturday,
I have been waiting for you for six long days”
Charmaine J Forde 

At last we reach Saturday!
I missed "The Sounds of the 60s"
We had tea in bed.  
 The sunshine is out at last.
 We visit B&M bargains to get some bits.
I price up the tins of paint.
 I pop over to see some late friends↓

 
 He wasn't very old when he passed away↓
 I actually visited this grave for the first time, as I keep seeing it when I go pass after visiting my mum's grave↓
 I gave my mum some more flowers↓
 Blue skies \o/
 Looking at more paint↓
 It's getting warm!
 We visit Dunelm↓
 
 
 
 My favourite drink!
(I have been tee-total for nearly 6 years!)
My table is looking nice :)
 The bed is covered in so much,
We ran out of time to get it off...
Our bed for tonight is:
Must not forget the earplugs!

Friday On My Mind...

The unhappiest people in this world, are those who care the most about what other people think - CJoybellC
The Friday Feeling is back!🍾🍾🍾
 The dressing table looks lovely in the sunshine!
(Pity I have to sell it, as I have no room for it!)
I have a early coffee and nibble↓
 
 Followed by a very early liquid lunch↓
The sun is trying to break through
 
 A quick look at the newspaper↓
 It is getting warmer
 It's nice and warm \o/
 
 I came back after my other job↓
 Coffee and whippy cream time!
 After our evening meal.
I went to do my final job with some great tunes...
I gets back home in the sunshine↓
 
To finish off Friday, we watched Graham Norton:
 Graham's guests are actors Tom Hanks, Gwyneth Paltrow, Tom Holland and Jake Gyllenhaal, and there's music from Stormzy.
Going to make full use of that warm bed...well into the weekend...

You Were Made For Me!

You can hate a place with all your heart and soul and still be homesick for it - Joseph Mitchell
The sun was up nice and early....
 (Taken from my landing window)
I went back to bed for 2 hours :)
Once I got up after breakfast.
I gave everyone sloppy 💋💋💋 before they left the house.
The iron had to come out for the t-shirt I was wearing for today..
 Coffee and nibbles time
 Dishwasher went on,
As did the washing machine....
Liquid lunch time↓
 Now for a little ride in Sexy Beast
 The temperature is going ↗↗↗↗
 However those dark clouds are coming over↓
I gets to work,
Has a look in the newspaper↓
 I'm leaving the rain mac in Sexy Beast....
 The rain kept off \o/
Back to singing along with some great tunes
 
 I have coffee with an over-dose of whippy cream!
 I went to work and stumbered upon on someone's sunglasses 🕶
(Not as big as mine)
 I came back for some evening meal...
While I was at my third job with some good tunes....
My lovely items I won off Ebay were dropped off at my house by my youngest brother...

These were made for me!
I came back, it was still daylight at 9.30pm!
 
 The weekend is taken up by moving our bedroom around.....
I wonder what we are going to find???
