Trying To Release The Red Stuff...

A hat should be taken off when you greet a lady and left off for the rest of your life. Nothing looks more stupid than a hat - P. J O' Rourke.

I have a bad enough time trying to sleep,

(I am a light sleeper).

I had a loud snore in my ear....

So I resolved the problem,

(besides giving a elbow in the ribs and a quick kick)

I got up to enjoy tea and toast,

Plus I watched an episode of Kirstie's Homemade Christmas..

 Before falling asleep again...

Later on, Hubby warmed my breakfast back up with he went to work.

He a big 💋 goodbye.

I had a phone call,

Someone is coming out to look at the roof tomorrow..

(It's blowing a gale in the loft) 

Another pop star has passed away.

(My veins don't like giving blood at the best of times....)

Once that was done, I tried to pay to get our of the car park...

2 cards were declined..

 Walked back to car to see how much loose change I had.

£2.50 in 20p,10p and 5p.

Then I tried my card using contactless...

Surprise Surprise, it worked!!!!

I was out of there in under 20 minutes!!

Back home for coffee and lunch..

 Had a nice packet through the post.

 Free gift↓

 

 Now I can try and use my knitting looms to knit my own hat....

Went back out...

Today's hat was the pink one!

 I parked by the college, as older son needed to collect his order from town.

 Then I went around to see my dad.

 We had strong words

( I did, as I don't like being accused of stirring the shit, when I haven't).

I got back home ..↓

 

 Sorted out the evening meal.

Went to work.

Came back for another strong coffee.

My kids have found Shaun the Sheep on Netflix.

 Making plans on how to use tomorrow Friday's Feeling...🍾🍾🍾
