Pushing It Out!

When I was a kid my parents moved a lot, but I always found them - Rodney Dangerfield
Welcome to my Tuesday🍿
Phone call to the doctors later...
I woke up early with a migrane.
Downstairs for pain killers and a sleep on the sofa↓
  I was woken up later on for brew and breakfast.
Back upstairs I go↓
 Brew and hug.
Breakfast.
Gets Dressed.
Out for the daily walk↓
 Back in record time↓
 Quick read of the newspaper with coffee↓
 Phones up the Doctors.
Going to see the female Doctor later...
Writes up yesterday's blog.
Jumps into the shower...
Now off to see the Doctor↓
 Up the hill I go.
I sit in the waiting room with my face mask on.
The female doctor has full PPE on.
Had to slip off the underwear and lie on the couch.
The car jack came out.
First up was the smear.
Then my muscles pushed out the car jack to the surprise of the Doctor.
"What strong muscles you have!" She said.
She had to put the car jack back in to take more swabs.
When she finished, I got up and put my underwear back on.
I asked the Doctor:
"Will I have to have the pram took away?"
After a few minutes she grasped what I was talking about.
"No, that is the last resort," she replied.
Blood test next month to see if there is anything more going on....
If the Hunt for Red October gets any worst, I have to see the Doctor again.
Now back down the hill↓
 Back home.
I go round to give my neighbour some mail that was delivered to us by mistake.
He asked me if I liked coffee???
"Of course!"
He then gives me↓
 I say thank you very much!
Another friend pops round to see me.
He bought me a magazine to thank me for giving him some flour during Lockdown.
 We have a good yak in the garden. 
I knock some apples off the tree, and he takes them home with him.
The Birthday Girl comes over with some cake for the kids.
Hubby and I only had a bit...
 I said thank you to my friend for coming over.
Then onto to make more apple pies...↓
 I put the big one to bake in our oven.
I took round the other two to my neighbour.
Nice easy tea for tonight↓
 My friend had left her purse on our sofa while she was here earlier. Phoned her up to say she had left her gold bullion here.
She came and collected it.
 Off to work I go afterwards↓
 With some big tunes↓
 It was still daylight when I got home↓
 Pie done↓
 Carrying on with the NYPD boxset↓
 with some sleep tea↓
 A busy day tomorrow.
My late dad's 79th Birthday

Eye Test....

Tea at 3 time
 I got the baby Janome sewing machine,
Made 3 more facemasks↓

I wanted to change the bobbin colour,only to find the tin with the bobbins had gone walkabout! 
I looked everywhere for this tin.In the end I had to order some more off EBAY....
Sits by my computer, there is the tin under some paperwork!!!
I looked inside and found one plastic bobbin.The bobbins I bought for the Monster won't fit the Janome!
So the lovely threads I bought on Sunday, will have to wait a little longer to be used!!
