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 ;)

Laid Up

The flu is very unpredictable when it begins and in how it takes off.
Harvey V. Fineberg 
I knew something was wrong,
When I was blowing hot and cold,
And couldn't get out of bed.
I have caught the dreaded flu from Job 2. 
I only had a mouthful of porriage, I couldn't eat nothing else.
I had half a cup of coffee (to ease the caffine cravings)
I didn't dare kiss anyone incase I gave them this dreaded flu.
Back to sleep I go.....
Wakes up 2 hours later,
Burning sore throat and headache.
I stumble downstairs with a burning temperature, to have a lemsip.
Yahoo must be playing up, as I sent a email 3 times to Job 1 ,saying I won't be in. 
In the end, hubby phoned up for me, as I felt so weak, I had to go back to bed.
There where I stayed until 10pm.
I staggered down for a lemon,ginger,and honey tea. I covered myself in Vic as well.
Back to bed until 2.30am.
I couldn't sleep!!!
Staggered back downstairs, wrapped myself up in blankets.
Suddenly the high temperature kicked in, brought some lovely phlegm up in the bucket...
Still wasn't tired, so sat wrapped up with blankets on the my settee!
 Looked at the Birthdays....
Frank Thornton: British actor (Are You Being Served?, Last of the Summer Wine) would have been 98 years old.
(He died aged 92 in 2013) 
 Pete Waterman, English record producer (Stock Aitken & Waterman-Road Block),is 72 years old.
 (Pete Waterman has scored a total of twenty-two UK number one singles with his various acts including Dead or Alive↑↑)
 Gordon Jackson: Scottish actor (Upstairs, Downstairs, The Professionals, The Great Escape),dies aged 66 in 1990.
 Elizabeth 1 is crowned Queen of England in Westminster Abbey in 1559
I hope I won't have too much sleepy Hump 🐫 tomorrow...
