Handle Me With Lots Of Care.....

Back on the wobbly work wheel,

I did Job 1.

Got back home, felt crap, back to bed.

This migraine was taking a long to disappear.

Couldn't do Job 2.

Back to bed...

I just had a numb headache.

Drinking lots of Lemsip.

Lets hope I feel better tomorrow...

 As Henry the hoover is wimping in the corner of the Dining Room...(He wants to come out and play!)

One Wheel On My Trolley.....

It has come round really quick!

After winning free tickets for the BBC Good Food Show,

It was time to use them!

Out of bed at 7am.

Sandwiches made, Flask made up, cold drinks packed.

Caught 2 trains to get to the Birmingham NEC.

Free food, yum yum yum, and free goody bags.

Taking my shopping trolley down the stairs to catch the train home.

Then one wheel broke off!!!!!

(My son tried to reattach it, no luck on it staying on!)

Hubby and son then had to carry it everywhere!

I started to sing:

"One wheel on my trolley, and I'm just rolling along......"

 

Something For Nothing (Almost!)

Woo hoo the weekend arrived by gusts of wind we had last night!

Everything was nailed down, so it wasn't blown away.

All the males in the household had haircuts this morning.

Done the food shopping.

The Dr Who quiz was cancelled at the Library :(

Still enjoyed a takeaway M&S mocha and a read of a free newspaper.

We popped into Sainsbury's and picked up a early Christmas present...

What was even better, I had £15 of nectar points to spend...

So I got Chinese takeaway and a good film for nothing ;)

 

Make It So...

Woo hoo the weekend is nearly here.

I didn't get round to doing no baking whatsoever!

More talking than anything.

Finally got the Christmas presents bought.

Didn't even have to leave the house either!

I feel sorry for Santa, he is going to have a bad back

after delivering the presents!

Don't worry, I will leave a stiff drink and a homemade mince pie for him on Xmas Eve.

Better start on making the Xmas cards, or they might turn out to Happy 2016 Cards instead!

Getting Down & Dirty

It's Thursday time again.

Time to put on the pinny.

Housework to be done.

My warm hands were at the ready..

Henry the hoover done the stairs and landing.

Closely followed by the mop and bucket.

Mopped kitchen,hall,and bathroom.

Ran out of time to some baking....

So guess what I won't be doing tomorrow...

The Housework ;P 

 

 

Wearing The Special Hat!

Welcome to Hump of the Week!

I decided to dig out the Santa hat for Job 2.

I know it's only November 25th, but I have 6 days left there.

I like making dinner times fun!

4 weeks and counting to the Big Day!

I haven't even made a card, wrapped a present, baked the Xmas cake or made the Chocolate log...yet!

I soon will have more time on my hands,

than I know what to do with in December!

 

Of Course I'm A Lady!

Welcome to 3 jobs Tuesday.

Counting down to losing Job 2

8 days and counting....

It was not as cold as it was yesterday,

But still needed the thermal.....vest!

One of my toys are brought out to play with tonight...

My hairdryer....my hair now getting nice and long...

When I had hair this long( a good 20 years ago)

One former co-worker said about me with long hair

"I either look like a "lady" or a very badly dressed transvestite."

 

Time For The Thermal Knickers!!

It's freezing cold Monday time.

I reached for the thermal knickers.

As Mr Frost visited last night.

I had loads of clothing on, 

Had to scrape,scrape and more scrape the car windows.

I added more layers for Job 2.

I had a elderly man comment on how warm I looked at Job 1.

I did say to him, "It would surprise him what I was wearing under my coat!"

He replied to that,"Bet it takes a long time to get undressed for bed?".

"With the warm hands of my husband, very quick actually!".

With that comment, I winked at him ;)

 

Henry To The Rescue!!

Welcome to a very cold Sunday.

We spent today, getting the house ready for Winter.

Henry the Hoover came out,

With a dash of Shake 'n' Vac.

Drunk fine filter coffee.

The Winter curtain were ready to put up.

So while I took down the summer curtains,

I knocked the shelf containing the expensive filter coffee!

Good job Henry was already out to play.. 

Singing Along With Captain Beaky......

Woo hoo it's Saturday!

Lie-in, hugs and kisses with hubby,

Visited town with the pink shopping trolley,

Had my normal take away M&S coffee,

Read the Guardian newspaper.

Only to discover Keith Michell the actor had died :(

He played Henry VIII twice in the 1970's in,

 Henry VIII and His Six Wives & The Six Wives of Henry VIII (BBC TV Series)

After watching the reruns of 1980's Top Of The Pops.

Who got to number 5 in the charts with:

"Captain Beaky"???

Charging The Mouth Battery....

Woo hoo it's Friday....

The weekend is nearly here....;P

I visited some good friends in Studley.

I brought some mince pies direct from my kitchen.

However, not homemade but from Mr Kipling!

I had a good chinwag for 2 hours.

Now for another chinwag with more good friends.

Caught up on some gossip.

Wished them a Happy Xmas and Merry New Year.

Now back home to charge up the mouth!!!

 

 

Playing With Lots Of Paper

It's Thursday once again.

Time for the Xmas jumper to be put back on.

I was off to a Making Xmas Cards Course.

I made Iris Folding Xmas card, and a Quilling Xmas Card.

I enjoyed a mince pie and a coffee,

While the rain came down outside.

I enjoyed myself so much,

Making,sticking, and playing with paper!

I have put my name down onto the 

 Create a Christmas Wreath course.

 

Grinning Like A Cheshire Cat!

Welcome To My Hump Of The Week,

Still counting the days until I finish Job 2

Wearing a rather large grin while I was working :)

I went to a Titanic party that was held at my son's school.

Nice to have coffee and chat with some of the Year 6 parents.

I am starting to make my Christmas cards tomorrow

Nice to relax, sing a bit, drink coffee and be creative!

 

Pulling The String....

I have had a busy Tuesday.

Counting down the days until I finish at Job 2.

Only 10 days left..

I have been singing,dancing and lots of woo hoos!

I phoned up a Government Department.

I made the woman laugh so much.

I got complimented on me being so happy and funny...(I blushed)

My answer was, "the string gets pulled from my back, and the happiness just about lasts all day"

 

Amazing Monday :)

Late last night,

The new mop was broken in,

to mop up four pints of milk that dropped out of

our fridge :(

 Today got better:

First, I won tickets to the BBC Good Food Show at the NEC.

I will be leaving my Job 2 in 4 weeks.

One adult and the kids will miss me.

No one else.

Secondly, I applied for a Dinner Lady job at another First School a few weeks ago.

Had interview. Then I forgot about.

Email and phone call,this afternoon,

 they offered me the job :) :)

So I start the new job after Christmas.

I don't think I will be needing the stab vest at the new job.

Bargains Galore ;p

I have been a VERY busy person today on this Sunday

Codename: Waitrose

I have got some vouchers to have £6 off when I spend £30.

It's so easy to spend £30 in there.

Stratford Upon Avon's Waitrose raided their reduced food....

Plus free coffee!

Alcester's Waitrose got loads and loads of reduced food...

Until I got to the till, the total was £29.90!

Grabbed some reduced noodles,

That's another £6 off the bill thanks!

Going to eat like Royalty for less ££££'s this week ;)))

 

Time For The Rabbit To Come Out ;P

Woo hoo Saturday once more...

Picked up a lovely 5 floor Hamster cage for Ruby the hamster (good deed)

Then off to the WRE in Worcester.

More lovely craft crap for me!( good deed)

Dropped off two boxes of books to Books For Free shop in Droitwich (good deed)

Raided Waitrose for reduced food, and free coffee.

We just got back before it started to get dark.

Front door shut, heating on.

Time for the purple rabbit onesie to come out!!

LIFE GOES ON!

Welcome to Friday 13th.

I enjoyed a half price breakfast with hubby at Webb's.

Visited my late mum's grave with some roses.

As it would have been her 71st Birthday today.

The black cloud has now lifted.(As you can gather)

I am so happy I won't have to put up with the

 backstabbing two-faced bitches in the future.

As I have a one way ticket to another planet ;)

 

Behind The Painted Smile

Woo hoo Thursday once more,

Dark clouds have descended upon me.

My trip to Hell yesterday didn't help

My Kalm tablets have been helping a lot.

So I had to paint a smile on my face.

Feeling a little better, as making most of the hubby tomorrow,

As he has got the day off!!

So I making the most of him for a whole 6 hours!! 

Loyalty Points!!

Welcome to Hump of the Week!

I have travelled to Hell and back today.

I got my fingers burnt on the return journey!

This week can't get any worst? Can it?

Oh, yes it's Friday 13th in 2 days!!!!

My humour helped me out at JOB 3

I had been talking about how many Loyalty points

I had racked up at Lovehoney to a co-worker.

He was grabbing his chest (I thought I may have to perform on CPR on him)

His response was:

"Loyalty points at Lovehoney?? I think I may have cracked a rib from laughing too much!!"

 

Taking The Piss....

Woo hoo it's 3 jobs Tuesday.

Diced with death twice by 2 shifts of Job 1.

I might have to attach a blue light to the top of my lolly stick.

Then there won't be NO EXCUSE that they can't see me!

Got compliments, saying how funny I am.

From the children while doing Job 2.

While attempting to do Job 3,

I walked into the men's toilet (to clean it),

The door was unlocked.

I disturbed a man taking a piss......

A quick exit was needed...

 

The Panda Did It....Honest!

Welcome to Monday.

Back on the wobbly work wheel (I groan)

I have had to put up with the wind, light rain, and bad drivers!

And that's just being outside doing Job 1!!!

Good job these Vitamin C tablets are working...just!

Upon returning to the Pink Princess from Job 2.

I see a Fiat Panda kissing my Pink Princess's ARSE!

Not good, as she now has a red permanent mark on her bumper

To remind me of her encounter with a Panda!

 

Baa Baa Black Sheep.....

Woo hoo it's Sunday again.

Time to the Food shopping!!

Aldi shopping spent £22.22

Waitrose shopping spent £21 on 33 items.

Lots of reduced food and a free coffee.

I even had time to enter the Waitrose's Christmas Tree Topper competition..

I didn't enter a cake into the Cake International Baking Show at the NEC this year.

Didn't have the funds or the ideas.

2 years ago I entered a cake with Shaun the Sheep and Friends in Fancy Dress! 

 

 

Counting The Pennies....

Saturday has yielded different results.

Scooped up all the loose change in the house to get this week's food shopping.

Grand total £36.60

We finally cut off the three long branches off our Apple Tree.

The sky dish survived....just!

Yodel Delivery Firm didn't deliver our Gousto order,

It was delivered somewhere where there was a porch!

Looks like beans on toast for us tonight!!!

Enjoyed A Threesome x

At last it's Friday!

Made it out alive during the first shift of JOB 1

Got home, slipped on the pinny.

Now for a gentle play with Henry the Hoover.

Then Kenny the Kenwood joined in too!

Chocolate and Fudge cupcakes were baked.

Followed by a Indulgent Chocolate Torte.

Pinny off.

Dodging traffic on the second shift of JOB 1

No road rage incidents to report.

Now to try out a cupcake....
