Welcome to my Friday Feeling 🎈
Warm hug with brew.
Breakfast.
I gives hubby a wet one 😘 before he goes off to work.
Dressed.
Now for a little ride in Sexy Beast.
Some great songs to listen to....
I picks up the newspaper on the way.
Plenty of singing along....
I gets my B3 space.
Now to have a look about!
I asked someone if they had Black Eye Susan Vine plant in.
They answered,"No."
He later said,"Once they die, they don't come back the following year!"
Funny, Google says different, when I looked yesterday. I will just grow my own from seed next year!
They look nice...
I wonder how much they are?
Wow!
Now time for chat,coffee and nibble!
Had a good chat!
On the way back to the car, I saw a someone I used to work with. Last February (2020) we had a conversation about me not being happy at work.
She replied to it by saying,"Well go then!"
(I finally did this March!)
I asked a member of staff if I could have a spare wood pallet.
"No, they either get reused or sent back!"
The skip was full of them!
Back to Sexy Beast for more singing on the way home!
Back home.
I wrote a review of the guest house we stopped in last weekend. Highlighthing the fact the lock didn't work and we had to put the chair up against the door!
Lunchtime.
Now to write yesterday's blog.
Tea at 3.
The chicken went into the oven for tea later.
Hubby came home for a sloppy wet one 💋
Chicken was ready and now to serve it up!
Afterwards, hubby and younger son went to do the food shopping, and pop in to see if hubby's dad was alright.
I had a quick look in today's newspaper.
"Roman Holiday", starring Audrey Hepburn, Gregory Peck, and Eddie Albert, is released on this day in 1953.
1964 Walt Disney's "Mary Poppins" directed by Robert Stevenson, starring Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke premieres in Los Angeles.
Hubby and younger son comes back, just in time to watch the James Bond film on ITV4.
This is my favourite Pierce Brosnan's James Bond film.
Brass bands are all well in their place - outdoors and several miles away - Thomas Beecham
It's so nice to be on the Wobbly Work Wheel🎡
Nice hug with brew.
Breakfast.
I gets up one son for school.
What to wear today???
Something cool.....
I gives out wet sloppy 💋💋💋
Now to leave...
&
Big big sunglasses..
Now to break in my new trainers
&
New rim on my lollypop stick!
On goes the summer coat as well.
Tree Pic.
Now for the fun to start...🎈
I only started when someone in a black car came speeding down the road at the same time I had my Lollipop stick out in front of me trying to cross some children over.
He looked at me, I looked back...
Two choices...
Stop or windscreen will get a crack in it!
He stopped \o/
No sports cars this morning.
At least the sun was out, and getting the rays!
Finished in one piece!
Back home.
Coffee time!
The youngest son finally got up!
Now to see a man about some new carpet!
He didn't have enough red carpet for the landing :(
The purple was a tad expensive.
I told him I don't do grey carpet....
The red stripes looked nice....
Number 1 in Redditch! For a bit more I could get the stairs done as well.
(I have had the stairs carpet at 2 other properties I lived in since 1996!)
All bought and paid for...
Nice carpet in the house ready for the weekend!
Nipped into Sainsburys for some salad.
Last stop was the garden centre.
Picked out some house plants.
Now for coffee...
Son had a nice doughnut...
After drinking and eating, we went to look about the store.
£799
I found some houseplants half price.
I picked up a Peace Lily, and 2 Mother in laws tongue plants at half price.
When I got to the till, I had a bit of ado with the sales assistant who tried to charge me for the plastic saucer the Peace Lily was sitting in.
I told her to keep it and take it off the bill.
It came with plant, she wouldn't have it.
So I got the plant and not the saucer!
Plants put on the back seat of Sexy Beast.
When I got home, I repotted the plants.
Just had enough compost!
Even got a Venus Fly Trap!
Light lunch.
Now back out into the sunshine..
The summer coat goes on.
It's not supposed to rain until later..
We will see...
Some car drivers are ignoring the new rim on my lollipop stick and driving under it!
One day it will go BOING BOING on their roof as they drive past!
Finished in one piece..
Had a good yak with my friend for a good 40 minutes!
I said goodbye and hopefully see him soon.
Back home.
I ate a 50p meal I bought from Co-op yesterday..↓
I will be glad of the Stir Fry tomorrow night!
Now to write yesterday's blog post...
Hubby arrived from seeing his dad.
Now to catch up with today's newspaper...
