Jab, Jab,Jab!

Try praising your wife - even if it does frighten her at first 
- Billy Sunday
Welcome to the Friday Feeling 🎈🎈 
Breakfast and Brew.
The thermal vest goes back on again.
Dressed.
Out of the house I go.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I leave.
On goes the winter coat, winter hat, and winter gloves!
I turn on my lights and pick up the newspaper on the way back up.
Swaps the newspaper for my big stick.
Now to turn on my other lights.
Let's go to work...🍭
No boings given out.
Just last minute brakers and stopping in the KEEP CLEAR space.
Finished in one piece.
Booked appointment to see the Clerks on Monday morning about something on the upcoming Agenda on Tuesday.
Back home.
The loft people were already here.
I let them get on with working in the loft.
Out comes the bread maker.
Puts bread maker on.
Time for a coffee.
I made the workers some drinks and gave them a Rocky each.
Wrote yesterday's blog post.
The bread didn't out as expected :(
The workers finished and hubby paid them.
Looking well nice now.
I had some minion themes items come through the post.
Liquid lunch time.
I talked to hubby on his lunchbreak.
Now out to do the final shift of the week.
On goes the winter coat, winter hat and gloves.
Turned on my lights.
Walked down to look in the Charity Shop.
Nothing in there.
Wished all the staff a good weekend.
I turned on my lights.
Fetched my big stick and went to the square to have a good rabbit.
I wished all my friends a good weekend.
Now to start the final shift of the week.
Loads of traffic to deal with.
One Royal Mail van parked on the pavement so I couldn't see down the road.
At least I finished in one piece!
I went for my flu and Covid-19 jabs.
It wasn't very busy in the walk in hub.
I has to strip down to my thermal vest.
(As I had a lot of layers on!)
Once done, back home I went.
Now to try making some bread again.
Cup of brew time.
Hubby came back and had a sloppy wet one 💋
Nice takeaway.
Yum.
Looked in today's newspaper.
The bread didn't turn out alright again :(
The paddle had got stuck in bottom of the bread.
One for the birds I think.
Hubby went exploring in the loft, now we can get up there safely!
Sleep Tea Time.
Now to enjoy some warm Friday Feeling in bed with hubby ;)

Pump It Up!

Be aware that a halo has to fall only a few inches to be a noose - Dan McKinnon
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Thermal vest going on.
Dressed.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before I leave.
Time for those big big sunglasses come out!
Still had to wear my gloves.....
Nice sunrise.
Puts on my lights...
Let's go to work...🍭
It was so nice to see the sun back!
Until the clouds covered it up!
Some drivers find is so funny not to stop...
Let's hope they don't chance it too often!
Finished in one piece.
I nipped into Co-op to get some top up shopping until Friday.
(I save £9.50 on my shopping too :)) 
I got the newspaper and my neighbour's magazine on the way home.
Coffee machine gets put on.
Puts the shopping away.
Into some lighter clothing..
Now to play with the new toy!
I did a great 20 minutes session on it.
Now for the Spin bike to come out for 15 minutes...
Felt better after that.
Washed and changed.
Coffee time.
Now to get yesterday's blog post wrote.
All the way to lunchtime!
My neighbour showed off his new mobility scooter, that now folds up itself.
I gives him his magazine.
Light lunch.
Now out for Part 2 in the sunshine!
No need for gloves.
Puts on my lights.
It's going to be fun with low lying sun dazzling the car drivers when they come up the road.....Then the yellow peril is whipping out my big lollipop stick!
I only had one friend to rabbit with.
(The other friend was probably taking his sister shopping)
I said goodbye to my friend.
Now for Part 2.
I was surprised how this afternoon went!
Not a lot of cars were going under my stick!
Hometime for me!
More good music to sing along with:
I got the tea all done.
In the oven it went....
Now for a much needed brew!
I looked the long range forecast for next week, especially next Friday...
It's going to feel like -9c and snow will be appearing in the afternoon.
Triple layers of thermals....and a spade to dig out Sexy Beast! 
I gives hubby another wet sloppy 💋.
Time to dish up the grub!
Chicken and Vegetables Casserole.
Quick look into today's newspaper
