I actually had some post on a Saturday \o/
My Me to Bears have arrived.
We loaded up the car with some donated items to the Recycle shop in Stratford Upon Avon.
The temperature is going up ↗↗↗
On to Stratford we go...
They had the four boxes of items off us.
Now for us to look around....
I got two X-Files boxsets.
We had lunch on the way back.
We popped into Alcester.
Bargain!
We nipped into Waitrose to get some bits.
Nice Price!
There was a shopping list in our trolley.
Once we got our bits.
Off to Lidl to do our food shopping.
Nice sunset when we came out.
When we got home, we unpacked the car of the shopping.
While hubby put the shopping away.
I added more Rainbows to the garden.
It was getting cold and dark.
Back in the house to start on the tea.
I forgot to buy some red wine to add to the tea.
On the shopping list that went.
I pan fried the beef and it went into the oven.
While that was cooking.
It was Heardle Time.

Thermal vest goes on, as well woolly leggings and my long jumper dress....
Time to leave.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I leave.
On goes two hats, winter coat and gloves.
Gets my newspaper.
Collects my big stick.
Now to turn on my lights.
Once I put on my lights.
Off to work I go 🍭
There is some work at the Angel light opposite me. The light hasn't been on since the big switch on last Friday.
There were a few cars had to brake quickly!
A few BOINGs were given out.
I was getting well warm in all my layers!
Off went the Panda Hat and one glove!
Opened my coat to let the steam out!
Finished in one piece...
I went down the Co-op to get bits for my homemade soup.
(The Christmas Tree) in the car park.
I got my bits and headed home.
Coffee machine went on.
Now for some housework.
Loaded up Dishwasher.
Puts the bins out for tomorrow.
Put the shopping away.
Put the soup maker on.
Now for coffee..
Once the soup was done, in a big jug it went.
That should last up to 3 days!
Ticked off things I have got for everyone for Christmas.
Wrote out the list of people for Christmas Cards.
As of every year the list goes down every year.
I will have to send off the Christmas Cards to people who live outside the Redditch soon.
I am making a Fake Faux Pom Pom wreath.
I have ordered some Pom Poms in the sale.
I hope they come before Christmas.....
Now for some exciting liquid lunch...
Chicken, Sweet Potato, Mushrooms and Parsnip Soup
Yum!
Now out to enjoy the afternoon shift! 
I only put on one hat, winter coat and winter gloves goes on. Turns on my lights, and returns to sit in Sexy Beast until my friends appear.
One friend appears and we go have a rabbit in the square. We are then joined by another friend and his dog.
The time goes on, and then it's time for me to start my shift.
I say goodbye to my friends, and so I start.
Here we again.....
Refusing to stop on the otherside of the road.
Pity I haven't got a much longer big stick!
Then it's stopping in the Keep Clear space.
I was offered free milk by one of the houseowners on the otherside of the road.
"Yes Please!" I say.
Finished in one piece.
Collected my free milk and back to Sexy Beast.
Back home I go.
Now for a cup of brew.
I put the multi-coloured pasta in a saucepan of  boiling water.
Once that was done, added the homemade tomato sauce, gave it a big stir.
Hubby came home and a had a big sloppy one 😘
Tea was served up.
Everyone ate their's \o/
