Welcome to my Thursday 🍭
It was nice to have a warm hug and a brew.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
I woke up the kids for school.
I gave everyone their sloppy wet 💋💋💋
Those sexy lumo trousers were worn as well.
Still raining ☔
Tree pic.
I didn't see the lambo :(
The rain was coming down heavy.
It was wet but warm.
I had to take off my gloves it was that warm.
Still few cars failing to stop :(
I finished in one piece.
I got the newspaper on the way home.
It was still raining when I got back.
I got my rain mac and put in some plants that came in the post yesterday.
Now for a much needed coffee.
I wrote two blog posts.
Lunchtime.
It was still raining when I left to go on my afternoon shift of lollipop 🍭
I put on those sexy lumos again..
I went to put on my lights and I noticed traffic lights. Oh dear the fun, we are going to have with the traffic!
Let the fun start...
After 10 minutes the sun came out and the rain stopped!
The traffic was backing up on both sides of the road.
Someone driving in a horse van found it funny not to stop while I had my stick in the air.
I survived this shift in one piece.
I chatted to my friend for twenty minutes.
Then off home for coffee and crumpets.
Back out for the 60s disco..
When I get in, I was given the mop pole I so wanted.
Fixed it to the mop head...
Now for business!
A little of bit mopping and hoovering at the end.
The rain was back!
A bit of singing in the rain on the way back home.
The rain still coming down when I got home.
Nice Mexico meal for me.
Then back out in the rain in Sexy Beast.
Filled up him with some petrol.
Off to Morrisons to get some tea for tomorrow.

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
It was nice to have a warm hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
Woke up the kids for school.
Gave everyone their sloppy wet 💋💋💋
Now to leave the house.
Time for those big big sunglasses to come out.
It was still too cold to put on my summer coat.
The winter one came out.
Tree pic.
This is where the fun starts...
Still cars look up at the lollypop stick when they drive under it.
I just roll my eyes and let them get on with it!
I haven't seen Flintstone since Monday, so perhaps she is getting her brakes sorted!
I saw the lambo today \o/
I finish in one piece.
Now to get my haircut!
We had a good yak while the hair was being shaved off!
Feel so much better afterwards!
Says my goodbyes.
Gets today's newspaper and my neighbour's magazine.
Then it's home.....
For a much needed coffee
I put the ham joint in the oven ready.
Made the sage and onion stuffing ready to put in the oven.
Vegetables in the saucepan ready.
As we ran out of soup,
I had a rather nice pot noodle for lunch.
Then I had to go out for my second Covid vaccine.
Waited in the waiting room.
In the left arm it went.
Waited for 15 minutes before going back to Sexy Beast.
Finally got my Limerick done!
There once was a woman called Polly.
Who was the local lolly .
Dressed in yellow, she was so jolly.
When the cars didn't stop, she did despair,
To which she gave them the evil glare.
The councillor has been reelected to where I do my lollipop job took a photo of me doing my job last week....
Speaking of job.
I didn't fancy hunting for a parking space in the public car parks and not finding one.
I parked in the Co-op and bought some tins of soup while I was there.
Then I had to walk up the High Street,
(I chose to wear my summer coat)
Turned on my lights, then sat down on the bench to enjoy some vitamin D before I started.
Once I started the fun started.
99% of cars stopped.
However the 1% decided not to stop and keep going under the stick to disappear up the road.
Once I finished in one piece.
Nice long walk back to Sexy Beast.
Back home
Nice cup of brew with crumpets.
I switched Cds, from 70s to 60s...
Now for the roadtrip to work...
Once I got in.
I sorted the skip out ready for work.
I got the cleaning done.
I was asked about the blue mop and bucket.
Yes I said I have those, but no pole to attach the mop head to!
Put the skip back and out came the hoover to the do the staircase.
I couldn't do much more as the Painter was doing work on the First Floor.
Put the hoover back.
Finished on time today \o/
Back on the 60s....
Back home.
At least it's not raining!
Now enjoy some tea.
Quick look into today's newspaper.
