Welcome to my Magic Saturday 🎇

Sleeping Beauty came down and we had breakfast together. I was so tired from not having enough sleep.

I went off back to catch up on some sleep.

In the meantime, hubby dropped off son at work, and got the newspaper.

I woke up later on.

Dressed.

 I enjoyed a much needed coffee in the front garden.

Then for lunch.

Then out in Sexy Beast to check it's tyre pressures.

Before we left, I heard a man shouting from the otherside of the fence.

As I reversed off my drive, a man who shouting at a woman in a white long volvo in the car park of the factory next to us.

Does the tyre pressures.

Goes back home.

Man is still shouting at the woman in the car.

I grab my Crystal Healing folder.

Hubby phones the Police about the Domestic happening.

Off I go to, my course I am doing at:

There was only 5 including Joe.

Really enjoyed the course!

Learn more about crystals too :) 

Back home.

The Police did come and talk to the man on his own for a good 30 minutes.

The man and woman then left together.

Nice sit in the garden to collect my thoughts!

With a much needed lolly!

We did the Heardles while we were chilling.

Hubby gets as much as he can off the matt.

I start looking for the stuffing for tea.

I ask hubby:"If he buy any on Thursday?"

"Yes, no, they didn't have any!" He replied.
