Are You Drunk?

 When a man opens a car door for his wife, it's either a new car or a new wife - Prince Philip
Welcome to my Tuesday ⛾
Nice warm hug with my brew.
Breakfast.
I gave hubby a sloppy wet 😘 before he left for work.
I went back in that warm bed for a little bit of lie-in....
So warm with in Teddy!
Then I woke up, got dressed.
I put on the coffee machine, for when I come back.
Now to get some fresh air...
I popped to the Newspaper Shop.
I walked in with my facemask on.
The owner was on all fours looking at the bottom shelf.
"That's how I like it, my men kneeling in front of me!"I said to him, as he got up.
There was a man being served in front of me, asked me:
"Are you drunk?"
"No, only drunk on coffee!"I replied.
"You are so happy!" He said.
"I'm always happy, no point in being miserable!"
"Stay happy,"he said as he left the shop. 
I got my newspaper, and off home I went.
Now time for that much needed coffee!
First load of washing from yesterday was dried and took upstairs.
Now to use the washing machine again!
I sent another email about my parcel being delivered to the right address....
Being Ignored again!
I got yesterday's blog post wrote all the way to lunch.
Quick lunch as got a friend coming round for chat, coffee and cake!
My friend appeared!
Chat time.
We finished off the M&S scones...
We have a good yak...
More chat, and coffee later on in the week...
Now to put tea in the oven.
Hubby came home for a sloppy wet 💋
The ladder has now been sold, and pick up is tomorrow \o/

Hit Me With Your....

 If you haven't got anything good to say about anyone come sit by me - Alice Roosevelt Longworth
Welcome to my Thursday 👽
Hug with brew to start the day with \o/
Breakfast.
Dressed.
Woke the kids for school.
Then gave out sloppy wet 💋💋💋 before I left.
No big big sunglasses....
It is still cold, so the winter coat went on, with winter hat and gloves!
Tree pic↓↓
The fun carries on this week....
I told off a little girl for not stopping on the pavement while I walked across the road.
(Tumbleweed moment!)
Four teenage girls walked past me and then was running in the road further down the road!
People were just not interested in road safety.
The lambo went past me again :)
I finished on one piece!
I picked up the newspaper on the way home.
Now for a much needed coffee!
Time to fry sausages, mushrooms and onions.
Added them to the red pyrex casserole dish.
Added some vegetables, and some sausage mix.
Put it in the oven for later.
Now to write yesterday's blog post.
Listened and sung along with my playlist.
Once finished and and published my post.
It was dinnertime...
It was looking a lot like rain...
Better pack the rain coat!
Gets down to the do the afternoon session.
That grey cloud is following me!
And it was a bit windy.
I had trouble holding onto my lollipop stick...
It didn't help as I was in the middle of the road, and was just about to walk back to the pavement, one car had to slam on the brakes very quickly or I would have been hit!
I put my hand up and walk back to the pavement in one piece!
That was close one!
Finished in one piece after that session.
Chats with my mate with his dog.
Gets home for a crumpet and coffee.
I puts the oven on.
Now for a little chill time while driving to my job.
First thing that happened,
Someone didn't stop at a roundabout and nearly hit me!
Next I had a van flashing his lights through his grill of his van, and lights on top of his van.
I pulled over and let him past...
Funny thing is, I followed him all the way to work...
It didn't help,he had stopped on  the keep clear space. So the car waiting to come out couldn't and car wanting to turn right couldn't either.
Once that caused queues everywhere, we moved up to the traffic lights...
He carried straight ahead, I turned left. The queues of cars were right up the High Street.
Now for more fun to start....
Loaded up the Mule...
Here we go again...
Finished on time.
Back to the chill time on the way home.
I was soon back...
Sausage Casserole!
