Too Much Pea Soup!

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
 I enjoyed my snuggle and cup of tea with hubby in bed.
 Opens up the curtains.
Pea soup time (fog)
I gave everyone wet πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹ before they all left.
Coffee and housework time!
 Early lunch↓
 
 The fog is lifting slowly
 Still frigging cold↓
 In some place there was fog, and other places we had sunshine!
Quick look in the newspaper.

I nipped into Morrisons for some bits.
Back home. 
 
 Coffee and nibble↓
Some nice flowers I bought for myself↓

Yeah,Yeah, It's Far Too Early!

If I am really a part of your dream, you'll come back one day - Paulo Coelho
Welcome to my Hump of the Week πŸͺ
It's going to be hit and miss with the rain today....
I am going to B3 later.....  
 Mmmm I enjoyed my hug and cup of tea in bed...
Before everyone left...
They  had to have their wet πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹
I had to leave early to avoid the traffic..
 
 It started to rain again!
Avoided some of the traffic jams!
 Time to B3↑
I nipped into Lakeland to get more things for the upcoming I am doing.
 
 The Christmas items are ready to buy now
(Far too early!)
 I enjoyed coffee and yak!
 Then off on a different way to work...
This way wasn't too bad either!
Now to look at the newspaper
 I looked across the fields of fun before I went into work.
 I had a nice matching red face to my red t-shirt I was wearing.
I tried another way home...
I ended up going through Feckenham,Astwood Bank, Alcester and Studley.
A good half an hours drive.
Listening and singing along with some great tunes....
 
 Loads of things arrived for me today↓
 I will be getting my 🍭 uniform and my start date next week \o/
I went off to the Happy Place Of Work...
(Not being paid today...;@
It's going to be tomorrow instead )
As my son was hogging the kitchen,
Making cake.
We had to resort to having a takeaway↓
 What my fortune cookie says↓
 Now to burn off the take-away by going off to work with some good music!
 I came back to catch up with the MP's shouting at Boris Johnson....
Now for snuggles......
