Suffering From The Dreaded C.....

I have a perfect cure for a sore throat - cut it - Alfred Hitchcock
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐪
Warm hug to start the Hump with.
Had brew with breakfast.
Got the thermal vest on.
Dressed.
All ready to leave,
When I collapsed on the bed with no energy and feeling crap....with sore throat and blocked up nose.
I phoned my Lollipop boss to say I won't be on duty today.
I took a Covid-19 test, and went straight back to sleep on top of the bed.
My younger son was also feeling terrible and looked terrible. He also took a test.
An hour after I took the test,
My results were confirmed.
I took a headache pill as I had a thumping headache.
Then I fell into another deep sleep until dinnertime.
When I woke, I needed something to eat and drink.
Finished off the batch of soup.
I will have to make some more tomorrow.
Spoke to hubby afterwards.
Then to write yesterday's blog post.
Tea at 3.
I ordered 4 PCR tests for everyone here.
They should come tomorrow.
Good old Vic, helping me with the blocked nose and sore throat.
Doesn't help my eyes keep running!
I couldn't give hubby a sloppy wet one or a hug, as he is wearing a facemask in the house now.
He is sleeping on the camp bed until I recover.
He bought something for tea on the way home.
Hunter's Chicken with Sweet Potato Fries.
Yum!
Quick look in the newspaper.
UK No.1 on this day in 1956:

We watched the another episode of Fame, season 2.
Took another headache tablet as the thumping headache is back!
Sleep Tea time.
I go off to that big King Size bed 🛏
Hubby beds down for the night on the camping bed...🛏 
No hump for him....🐫

More Rain Than Shine!

They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself - Andy Warhol
Woo hoo it's here 🎈
 It looks like it's going to have lots of nice rain!
 After my nice tea and warm hug.
I gave everyone a nice wet 💋
 I was out early as I was being B3
 
 I got my newspaper on the way.
I was singing along with Elton John in the shop much to amusement of the waiting school kids...
It took a bit longer to get there due to the amounts of traffic and the rain!


 It's nice to be B3


Back on the Webbs Experience


Christmas anyone?


 Nice coffee and something nice to eat....


 A rare treat of a bacon sandwich↓


 I had a nice yak...
Then the rain did come down on the way back to the car....
I had a little peak af the newspaper↓


 It would have been Alvin Stardust's 77th Birthday 🎈 today


He passed away in 2014 aged 72

Meatloaf is 72 years old 🎈
While singing along with Meatloaf,
I looked across the fields of fun..
 
 I had a nice red face...
(It matches my red t-shirt) 
The heavy rain came in on the the way home.
 
 
 I got soaked getting out of the car.
Quick change,
Then off to Happy Place of Work in the pouring rain.
Sunshine appears when I got back↓
 In need of coffee and nibbles↓
 Then I made a homemade Shepherd's Pie.
Enough left for tomorrow's tea.
Then off to do the final job of the week↓ 
Once hubby had come back from doing my dad's shopping.
Time to chill!!
More...
 The VapoRub has come out.
 We take it in turns to rub it in each other ;P

Rubbing It All Over...#2

The smell of Vicks Vaporub is strong in our house.
Hubby has got a heavy wheezy chest, so out comes the Vicks...
 Clears my chest no end!
My imagination was running overtime.
Got to get this written down in the book
Smoke was coming off my fingers,
Had to leave the writing alone to....
Enjoy this Friday Feeling,
Pass the Vicks, I am missing the smell....!

Picking It All Up

We have reached Saturday.
Still up early, got so much to do...
Went out in hubby's new car...
We picked up our new hamster called Harley.
Buried Milky in my dad's back garden.
(With lots of crying and a minute's silence)
Picked up my bulk load of lipsticks from Boots.
Had a free coffee from M&S
Then onto Waitrose,
As I picked up 2 Scout's shirts I bought from John Lewis.
Hubby is still coughing.
So he will be rubbed head to toe with Vicks Vaporub
By my very warm hands ;P
