Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫

Enjoyed a brew with hug!

Breakfast.

Dressed.

I got the kids up ready for school.

Gave hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before he left for work.

Both kids had 💋💋 before they left for school.

Loaded up dishwasher.

I was hoping my yellow paint might arrive between 9.30 -11.30am so I can carry on painting the skirting up the stairs.

Nice cup of coffee to start the morning off with!

Now to write yesterday's blog!

Email from the delivery company...

Couldn't find my house,

Paint gone back to depot,

Try again tomorrow!

GREAT!

Let's hope they find me tomorrow!

I also have the Plumber coming tomorrow to service the boiler, let's hope he turns up this time....

I wrote and published yesterday's blog.

No painting to be done....

Tidy up instead.

First declutted some of the Dining Room.

A lot was from my late dad's house.

Including the infamous Chef cookie jar I bought my late parents.

Moved it to a safer place

(I hope!)

I found a Birthday present and card that I got for a ex-friend over four years ago.

While I was on my previous lollypop job, I had the card and present in my lollypop coat pocket.Because it was raining at the time, she didn't come out of the car to fetch it! I had got home later and left it on the table. She dropped off my son after school, I texted her to wait for my son to get her present. She didn't wait but drove off!

Card went in the recycle bin.

I'm sure I can reuse the presents again in the near future.

I got more recycling done, all the way up to lunch.

Back to doing some tidying up.

I found some old ceramic flour and bread jars and they went into the kitchen window.

Like those below↓

I had a nice long chat with my Lollypop boss,

It was nice to have a chat!

Tea at 3.

I told one of my sons that if he don't get his bedroom tidied, I will be in there tomorrow....

He thinks I'm joking!!!!

The white vinegar I put a order in, failed to arrive today.

Hoping it will turn up tomorrow.

Now to start on tea for tonight.

The pork meatballs I got from Waitrose last week were crap!

Ended up with more mince in the pan afterwards!

Chopped up some mushrooms, onions, garlic and some peppers to it all.

Chopped tomatos went over it.

Lingine went in the saucepan.

Gave hubby a sloppy wet 💋 when he came home.

Tea was served up.

We watched today's Judge Rinder.
