Playing With My Pumpkins!

 I won a trip to China. I'm there now trying to win a trip back 
- Les Dawson
Welcome to my Halloween 🍊
6 years ago, I had a rather bad accident.
Which caused my Achilles tendon to snap.
Nasty!
I had a op to rejoin the Achilles tendon.
8 months off work.
Went back to work for 2 and half weeks then it was the 6 weeks school holiday.
Then during August I was made redundant from my first Lollipop job :(
Now I am a lollipop lady with a different Council and in a different place \o/
Breakfast and Brew.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 😘 before he goes to work.
Gets dressed.
Now out for chat and coffee.
No bamboo to be seen!
Nice to be back.
Even though rain wasn't forecasted, I was glad I brought my rainmac with me.
Goes and gets my newspaper.
One Councillor drives past and puts his hand up!
Gets my paperwork to do my survey of the recreation ground.
I chats with some parents (Who I cross over the road when I am doing my Lollypop) 
The squirrels were out in force. 
Might need repairing again.
I handed my paperwork into the office.
I met up with my friend who I gave 2 James Bond Dvds, that we have already and he hasn't got them.
I noticed one of the cars in the car park had left their car lights on.
I went back into the hall, and told them.
The man was said thank you for telling him.
My friend and I went off to enjoy a coffee.
A great Pillar box topper.
Coffee and chat time.
My friend a pot of tea and a slice of chocolate cake.
I am going to be part of the Rememberance Service↑↑
Afterwards, we walked up to the Charity Shop.
Another Councillor went past and tooted his horn at me.
Got a great bargain, going to make us laugh later....↓
My friend and I walked back to the car park.
I wished a good week and see him next week.
Back home I go.
I wrote yesterday's blog post.
I published one from last Monday.
Now for some liquid lunch.
I talked to hubby on his lunch break.
Unloaded the dishwasher and loaded it back up.
Now to get the cake finished!
It's called:
Too Much Pumpkin
Then I put the tea in the oven.
Cup of brew is needed.
Looked into today's newspaper.
Hubby had a sloppy wet kiss 💋 when he came home.
We had a lovely fish and salad tea.
Now to carry on watching my Dvd collection on the Mafia↓
Really good.
Sleep Tea time.
We caught up on the news and newspaper review.
I hope for a nice warm Hump of the Day tomorrow 🐫

Getting Ready To Go Back!

 Rain is one thing the British do better than anybody else -
 Marilyn French
Welcome to my Halloween 👻
It was nice to have a lie-in...
Lots of rain going on outside...
Nice hug with brew.
Breakfast.
My watch has a button that has stopped working to put back the hour and minutes back!
I bought this watch four years ago...
Speaking of four years ago.
I had a major accident which involved my achilles tendon snapping off, breaking a bone in my foot. 8 months off work, learnt to walk again. 
The NHS,family and some good friends help me get better a lot quicker!
As soon as I got back to work at my old lollipop job, 
(I did 21/2 weeks before I broke up for the 6 weeks school holidays)
Then I was made redundant from it :(
At least I have another lollipop job to do....:)
One minute raining heavily, then it stops...
I put my lollipop stuff in the car ready for tomorrow. 🍭 
Coffee time.
Washing machine went on.
My hunt for a simple watch was on.
I was not going to get a £350 watch....
I don't need the bells and whistles......
At least a good DVD boxset arrived.
One son filled out his application to get a Passport.
(He is going on a Foreign School Trip next year)
I sorted it out.
The other son needed a Scientific Calculator for his A level Maths and Chemisty.
I got that for him.
I finally found a watch that wasn't in the £££££'s.
Lunchtime.
Now to watch Red 2.
Really Great Film :)
After watching it.
Time to write my blog post from yesterday!
Then it was time for showers for everyone!
Tea time.
Then to watch the first disc of the Kenny Everett boxset that was delivered today...
George Harrison's "Something" is released by the Beatles as a single in UK, his first "A" side in 1969.
Dame Shirley Bassey did a good cover of it...
Sleep Tea Time.
Back on the Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡 tomorrow.
(Hopefully without all the rain we have had today)
