Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡

Nice hug to start the working week with.

Brew with breakfast.

It's another sad anniversary in the house.

As it is the 26th anniversary of my hubby's mum passing away..

I got dressed.

(Hubby is not going back to work until next week, as he has lots to sort out with his dad's death).

I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 😘

I went a different way to work, as there was a sign up to say a bit of road I normally used was closed for resurfing.

I was alright halfway there until I was stuck behind a 68 plate white van doing 25 m.p.h in a 40 zone!

I go and get the newspaper before I get changed.

It was nice to slip into my lollypop coat again.

I turned on my lights.

Then I walked down to my spot.

Just 3 minutes into my shift.

How I didn't miss a woman's windscreen is beyond me!

Her gums were banging when she went past.

I had two BOINGs to give out!

My tape recorder was being played alot!

I told everyone who asked if I had a good Easter.

"No, terrible Easter, I wouldn't wish it anyone what we have gone through!"

Got finished in one piece.

Back home I go.

The coffee machine went on.

As did the washing machine.

I took up the dry washing that was in the Dining Room.

Hubby was walking around Evesham while he was getting his car serviced.

I made a new batch of soup and bread.

Watered the plants.

Now for that much important coffee.

Hung the washing on the line.

Now time for a nice bit of liquid lunch.

The bread was done :)

Hubby's car was finished.

He was coming back home,

I was leaving it!

The road was actually open, and had chippings put down. I was doing the necessary 20 m.p.h.

One white BMW decided not to and I was sprayed in chippings as he overtook me!

Gets down to job in the sunshine!

On goes the summer coat with

Big Big Sunglasses.

I turn on my lights.

Now to soak up the rays!

I only had one friend turn up to have a little rabbit with....

Now to start the afternoon shift!

I said goodbye to my friend.

He may not be here tomorrow as he is taking his sister to a Funeral tomorrow.

My hubby went past me, waving at me.

A couple of seconds later had to stop the traffic.

I gave out two BOINGs as the cars failed to stop.

One gave me a wink as he went past!

At least I finished in one piece.

Back home I go.

 Hubby had a warm hug and a nice sloppy wet one 😘

Much needed brew needed...

Hubby did the tea....

I had two blog posts to write for this blog and a blog post for the other one.

Mmmm tea was nice.

After I did my blogging.

Goes to bed only for the loud snores to penetrate past my ear plugs....

I was too tired to put up the camp bed.

I just tried to make it comfortable on a two seater sofa to sleep on.....
