Welcome to my Monday Motivation 😄

Breakfast and Brew.

Dressed.

Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before he goes to work.

On goes the poppy on my jacket ↓

As I am on the way out, I had a workman ask to move my car over the drive a bit.

I told him I was on the way out and you can use the drive. He was here to remove all the bamboo from next door's garden. I will park on the road when I come back.

Off I went....

I parked in the Co-op car park.

(There is only a 90 minute parking allowed)

I dropped the big bag of Dvds at the Charity Shop.

The actual buildings which includes the Charity Shop was  up for auction last week, someone bought it instead of it going for auction↓↓

I got a nice Robin scarf and a mini-cupcake baking tin↓↓

I chatted with a parent on the way back to Sexy Beast.

Picked up my shopping bag from Sexy Beast and went to get my newspaper and other bargains from the Co-op.

Back home I go.

I parked on the road.

The workman were outside.

"Finished? That was quick!"

They all laughed.

I may one a cup of tea.

I unpacked my bargains and shopping.

Cup of coffee time.

I wrote one blog post from last week.

Listened to Pick of the Pops from 1967 and 1979.

No liquid lunch today.

I chatted with hubby on his lunch break.

Back to writing yesterday's blog post.

Published last Monday's blog post.

Now to make some cake....

Out comes Kenny the Kenwood....

Goes in the oven.

Cup of Brew needed...

The workman thanked me for giving him a cup of tea.

After they left, I put Sexy Beast back on the drive. 

Let's have a look at the garden next door!

One bit of bamboo left!

 

Looking good :)

I got one cake tin out of the oven.

One left to bake.

I sort out my Council emails.

Salad for tea.

Let the cake cool down.

Looked into today's newspaper.

Now for a bit of Mafia....

I watched the first one.

Put the cake together and added the frosting to it.

I will decorate it tomorrow.

Sleep Tea time.

Hubby came back from Snooker.

He won his game, however his team lost 3-2 at the end. 

Time for a warm bed with a even warmer hubby!

Well Done!!

Welcome to my exciting Thursday 😍

My youngest son is getting his A-level results this morning. ;)))

Breakfast and Brew.

Dressed.

I leave the same time as hubby.

I give him a sloppy wet one 💋

Goes to the local Tescos to fetch my newspaper.

Bumps into a ex-worker who turned out to be a bit of back stabber when I worked with her.

She asked how I doing.(Glad she didn't read my mind when I answered her question)

Back home I went.

Adds more to the recycle bin outside.

It being emptied today.

Coffee time.

Wishes younger son good luck as he goes and gets his results.

Out comes Kenny the Kenwood.

Quick cake to be made. 

Cakes go in the oven.

Just about manages to download yesterday's photos.

Cake cooled down.

Now to add some bits and pieces...

My son's A- level results:

Maths - A

Chemistry - A

Geography - B

Liquid lunch time.

Now out I go for a little ride...

I just got there and someone was reversing out of a space.

Time for another hair cut...

Pixie time!

While I was waiting for son who was having his  hair caught, I was chatting a woman about our holidays in Blackpool.

We talked about the charity shops in Cleveleys, Lytham, and St Annes.

I told her about last year's holiday when the kids had to catch the train back as the car was rammed.

I told her about our visit to see Les Dawson's grave we visited at Whitson.

When we go up next, we are going to see Keith Harris's grave.

My son was looking really great with his new haircut.

I told the woman before I left.

"I don't have long hairstyle no more, as I look like a bad transvestite!"

They all laughed as I went down the stairs.

Got some reduced things in Tescos before we went home.

Picture time!

Hubby has a haircut as well.

He gets a takeaway on the way back.

I recorded the first 3 episodes of "I Claudius".

It repeated on BBC 4.

Really good :)

Parks up.

I met one friend walking his dog, I gave him two cupcakes, and will see  him and his wife later on at the coffee morning.

Drops off the cakes, ready for the upcoming Coffee Morning.

Then off to drop off things at the Charity Shop and their chocolate cake I made for them.

Goes back to Sexy Beast to put the things in.

I met one friend who I gave two cupcakes to. 

Goes into the coffee morning.

My cupcakes had gone but my Llama cake was still there.

I had a coffee and a little bit of someone's else's cake.

Had a chat with 3 of my friends, the 4th friend was busy.

One friend left, and will be seeing him later on in the month as it's his 73rd Birthday 🎈

No one wanted my Llama cake, it was going to be the 7th prize in the raffle.

In the end I took it back, put it back in the tin.

I left with my two other friends.

(I did try my luck on the raffle)

(I will find out later if I have won something)

I wished my friends a good holiday and off we went to see if I could give my Llama cake to someone else.

First went over to my friend's workplace.

Locked up.

Went over to see his husband at  home.

Not there either.

Leaves a wet raspberry as a message on his answering machine.

Goes home to unpack all my goodies.

Liquid lunch time.

Didn't win nothing on the raffle :(

I got on with writing two more blog posts.

Tea at 3.

I put our tea in the oven.

My friend came over for the cake.

Hubby came home, and had a sloppy wet one 💋

Tea is ready!

Faggots, mash and mushy peas.

Yum.

Look into today's newspaper.
