"Do You Want To Be One?"

It is useless to hold a person to anything he says while he's in love, drunk, or running for office - Shirley MacLaine
Welcome to my Sunday 💖
I got up early to have a hot shower.
Breakfast and Brew.
Then we went back to sleep.
Older son came into see if any of his washing was in our room.
Nope!
He just left after that.
We got up.
Thermal vest went on.
On goes the coffee machine.
Washing machine went on.
As the washing is backing up.....
Until older son says sorry to hubby for swearing at him, his washing isn't being done.
He brought down his washing basket, I took it back upstairs.
Blog time.
While I was doing that, hubby was collecting all the branches, and trimming back the Goat Bush, all ready for Spring.
3 rubble bags full to go down the tip.
I gave him a sloppy wet one 💋 as went out.
I still had two more blog posts to write.
When he got back, I had one more to do.
Early Valentine flowers 🌹🌹🌹 
Liquid Lunch time.
Now to nip out to check the tyre pressures on Sexy Beast.
Nipped into the Petrol Station afterwards.
Had a laugh while paying for my fuel.
"Going to see my parents. They have enough of me after half an hour and they send in the rain clouds!"
Everyone laughed.
Speaking of parents, I went to tidy their grave and have a little chat with them.
Back home.
I got one more blog post to write.
Older son still being moody, and uses the washing machine to wash his clothes.
I did say there is a launderette up town to do his washing.
If he says sorry to hubby over what he said to him, normal washing of his clothes would resume.
Moaning if he earns  more money he would move out, and stormed out of the house!
Back to writing the final blog post.
Younger son comes back and tells me the fun he had going to Birmingham with his friend and his family.
They went into a high end shop and my younger son was asked "If he was a model?"
My son thought this was a windup, they gave him a card with a phone number on it.
His friend was a bit put out as he has more chance of being a model, however my son is 6ft 2,which helps!
Very proud when he told me :)
Tea is served.
Too much for me to eat.
Hubby is taking the rest to work tomorrow for lunch.
The mouse has been packed up and is being sent to a good friend who collects Bagpuss mice.
Older son comes back.
Front door is locked.
Oh dear he has forgot his key.
He sits on the front door step for a good ten minutes to cool down!
I let him in, and goes straight to his bedroom.
Now to look into today's newspaper.

One son walked to work.
The younger son went off to see his friend who had just come back from his holiday in Cuba.
We got on with tidying up the Dining Room.
A black foot print on the newly painted step appeared...
The story behind it...
Hubby who had painted the top wall above the front door, hadn't put the top of the lid down enough.He put it under the garden table. Something had knocked it over. Son had come back in the dark, didn't see it, and stepped in it, and left the foot print!
The pot of paint to carry on painting the step was misdelivered yesterday again to one of the factories. The Delivery firm wanted feedback.
Straight 0's they got.
Red light must have been flashing in the feedback office as had a email from them shortly afterwards to look in it!
 So the footprint stops on the step until the pot of paint can be redelivered to me!
Coffee machine went on....
After 25 minutes,it was time for a much needed coffee.
I came across a postcard that was sent to us in August 2011↓↓
I didn't find this postcard very funny.
As I had a purple hat for wedding which was only weeks away.
The person who sent this postcard was no longer invited to our wedding.
She had to sit on the wall outside the Registry Office, while we got married.
Lunch time.
Now for a little trip out...
The view from the car park.
Really great soundtrack from 1976!
Back home for a light tea.
 Quick look in today's newspaper.
