Lots of sewing stuff!

My younger son forgot the neighbour's list!

He got what he could remember.

We gets back home.

Unpacks our shopping.

Had a much needed coffee.

Hubby goes back with younger son with the list this time. While son is getting the rest of the shopping, the idea was to get two new tyres fitted to his car!

I had some nice sewing stuff to play with!

Sorted out the large sewing bag.

Hubby came back, he couldn't get the tyres fitted as the queue was too big! 

He will try again for the third time when he drops me at my course later.

Now to try some Lidl soup.

Not as good as my homemade soup.

Back out to do my Crystal/Tarot course.

That hour went quick!

Hubby got his new tyres fitted.

Third Attempt of Trying!

He picked us up afterwards.

I will try out some Crystal Healing on hubby next week...

Practice, Practice!

Now to write yesterday's blog.

Then we had tea.

We caught up on two weeks on Tops of the Pops from 1992.

Quick brew and hug↓

Breakfast.

Dressed.

 Quick daily walk to get newspaper.

The woman in the shop was having a bad Monday by giving out too much change to people (Including me)

"I don't know what's a matter with me today,"She said.

"Better put some talcum powder on it" I replied.

She laughed too! 

The delivery person was waiting for us when we got back

 He was grumbling on the how much frozen stuff I had ordered.

Then he was grumbling on how face masks are a waste of time.

(I only brought this up, on how no one was wearing any in Lidl's on Saturday)

He was a right old happy soul!

Once I took in the shopping and put it away.

I loaded up the dishwasher.

I noticed a dark cloud coming over.

I got the washing in off the line, just as the rain came down!

Now for the first coffee of the day↓
