Welcome to my Saturday 🍿
On this day in 2017,
I had an accident,
Which involved an ambulance ride to my local hospital...
My Achilles tendon had come off the bone.
Plus the corner bone of my foot had gone 6 inches into my foot.
(I had a phone call from by then Lollipop Supervisor the very next day, am I coming back to work?)
I was in hospital for 2 weeks.
I had my tendon reattached and bone glued back on!
8 months off work, I had to learn to walk and drive again!
Had brew with hug.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
Washing machine went on, followed by the tumble drier being put on.
Now for coffee....
Hubby went out with one of our sons to drop off a box of Cds that belonged to my late dad to the Droitwich Lions.
I got out the sewing machine to finish off my face masks...
I got the final four facemasks finished...
Hubby comes back with son.
I had Kenny the Kenwood out for a quick play..
Banged the cake in the oven.
Light lunch time.
While watching
Season 2 of
"Hell's Kitchen"....
The internet goes off....
Great.....
We leave the final of series 2 until later.
Hubby and son has to go out and do the food shopping for us and our neighbour...
After a few hours of the cake being in the oven.
Time to decorate!
While in Lidl, the panic buying of toilet rolls is starting again....↓
At least they have a pack of 4 Shea Butter Toilet Rolls still on the shelf!
I get yesterday's blog post wrote.
Hubby comes back.
They even got a Wonky Box from Lidl.
We had lots of lovely things in our box.
I used the Kale, courgette and aubergine.
Used it in tonight's veggie meal.
Now to tune it to Boris...↓
It's going to be interesting to see if hubby can work from home, from Thursday....
Fingers crossed once my knee gets better, and I can return back to work in two weeks!
We finished watching the final of
Hell's Kitchen season 2.
Then we moved onto Season 3.
Caught up with today's newspapers.

Welcome to my Halloween.
It just happens to be the second anniversary of my accident...
In the morning in 2017,I was enjoying coffee...
In the afternoon I was having my first ride in an ambulance to my local hospital...
My achilles tendon snapped off the bone.The heel bone was pushed 4 inches into my foot!
In hospital for 2 weeks, major operation, Ward 17 couldn't do enough for me.
I had to learn to walk again. 8 months off work. I had a lovely hubby, lovely friends,Alexa, Netflix, and boxsets. So I wouldn't go mad stuck in one room for 5 months!!!
2 years from that, I have a lovely scar to remind of it!
Anyway back today..
I had a lovely snuggle and a cup of tea in bed↓
I gave hubby a wet one 💋 before he left the house.
I had a much needed coffee before I got dressed↓
Once I got dressed,
It was time to a little ride in Sexy Beast
Not that warm↓
I drop off younger son to do his newpaper round.
I visited my lollipop patch I am doing next week↓
I chatted with two ex-customers for well over hour and half.
(When I talk, I talk)
I said goodbye to both and nipped into the Co-op↓
I needed that↓
I pick up my younger son from his paper round and get home.
Still not that warm↓
