Taking Off The Glove!

 “It is December, and nobody asked if I was ready.” ― Sarah Kay
Welcome to the First of December ⛇
Heardle Time.
Heardle 60s:
My answers:
Breakfast and Brew time.

 Thermal vest goes on,as well as some glitter and the Santa Hat!
Coat on, now to leave the house.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 😘 
Off to work I go.
On goes the winter coat, and two winter hats with gloves.
Gets my newspaper.
The Angel light is back on !
Collects my big stick.
I had to take off my big jumper as I was way too warm with it on!
Now to turn on my lights.
Once they were turned on.
I go off to my spot 🍭
I had 4 cars failing to stop...
BOINGs x 4.
I was coming back to the pavement when a BMW kept going and nearly took me out!
I got that warm, the Panda hat was took off as well as one glove!
Keeping the glove on that holds my big stick!
Finished in one piece.
DPD is coming out with our Christmas Jumpers.
It was too late to send them to Hughes....
Back home.
On goes the coffee machine.
Done a bit of housework while the coffee was being done...
I got on with writing my blog.
DPD phoned me to ask where my house was!
I had to go outside and wave to him as he drove past. He slammed the brakes on.
He went in the back of his van, searching  through the parcels around until he found mine!
He handed me the parcel.
Our Christimas Jumpers has arrived!
Now for some liquid lunch.
Then it was time for Round 2.
Something interesting left in the car park↓↓
I got my two winter hats, winter coat on, and turned on my lights.
I came back and I was chatting to one friend as the other friend was out and about.
We still had a good rabbit!
I said goodbye to my friend as I was about to start Round 2.
With the sun going down, the temperatures dropped. It was getting quite cold!
A few BOINGs given out to the cars on the otherside they decided not stop.
Even parking in the Keep Clear space!
One of the parents gave me Gingerbread man.
I said thank you so much!
I was glad to finish in one piece.
Now back I home I go...
Time for a brew!
Now to enjoy the Gingerbread man!
Yum!
Now to get on with the tea.
Hubby came back and had a sloppy wet one 💋
Tea is served.
Stir Fry Time!
Yum!
I looked into today's newspaper.

Timed That Well!

 A couch is good for one thing only - John Wayne
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Nice warm hug to start!
Brew with breakfast.
On goes the thermal vest.
Not so many layers as it's going to get warm later.
I didn't even have to cover up Sexy Beast last night either \o/ 
Off I go.
I gave my hubby a wet sloppy one when I left.
On goes one winter hat and the lightweight gloves as it's quite warm!
I puts on my lights.
Now let's get to work 🍭
I had a few BOINGs to do for those car drivers that drove under my stick and failed to stop!
More worst on the otherside of road, where they didn't even look and ignored the raised Stop sign!
At least I finished in one piece!
I had a good long chat about Crystal Healing with one friend I cross over.
Eye opening!
I told her, hubby is having it tried out on him tonight!
I wished her a good day.
I popped into Co-op with my nice long list.
Hoping I will reach my target and get £3.50 off the bill.
Two shopping bags later.....
Off to get my newspaper and my neighbour's magazine!
Back home finally!
Coffee machine goes on.
Unpacks all the shopping.
Quick coffee.
Then it was chop chop the veggies, cook the chicken, then add the stock and in the oven it all went!
I put it on a slow temperature in the oven.
After all that,
Time to finish off my part of the soup!
A new batch will be made tomorrow, with the stock from the chicken casserole we are having later.
The sun has gone in, and it's cloudy.
No low lying sun to worry about now!
Time for part 2.
I saw one of my friends, I talk to in the afternoon, walking down the road.
He had a small beep off me when I went past him.
No gloves and one winter hat goes on.
Got to talking my friend who has just had his other hand operated on.
We were having a chat about soups and stews.
The friend who I beeped earlier arrived eating a sausage roll.
I said goodbye to my friend with the dog and and my other friend and I went to turn on my lights.
We came back to the bench and my other friend arrived. 
We all had a good rabbit.
He then gave my friend and I a chocolate Gingerbread man each.
I will have later with my brew when I get back home.
I said goodbye to both.
Now to have fun with my afternoon shift!
No low lying sun to worry about.
Just in the first 10 minutes, a long Estate Merc done an emergency stop straight in front of me.
I had lowered my big stick just seconds before, and if he hadn't stopped, he face would have touched my stop sign!
He had to wait a fair bit as I had lots of kids and parents to cross over!
HE soon sped off when I got back on the pavement!
Still giving out the BOINGs again! 
Finished in one piece!
Hometime!
Time for a brew!
Turns up the oven.
Now to write yesterday's blog post.
Just finished when hubby got back home.
He had a nice sloppy wet one!
Time to dish up the tea!
Yum!
All four plates emptied!

Sleep Tea time.
Now to get into that warm bed before the heating goes off!
