Thermal vest goes on.
Coat goes on and now to leave the house.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
Off to work I go.
On goes the winter hat, winter coat and winter gloves. I goes and turns on my lights and gets the newspaper.
I swap my big stick for my newspaper.
Walks up to turn on my other lights.
Now let's go to work 🍭
My boss turned up with a new red rim for my stick.He tried to do it while I was working, which wasn't working out very good, as I was using it quite a lot.
He also gave me a lumo woolly hat.
As it had a brim on the bottom, if I added the eyes to it, it would look like a duck!
No BOINGs given out.
My boss witnessed the cars going under my raised stick!
Still finished in one piece.
Boss fixed on the new red rim to big stick.
Now back home I go.
Coffee machine went on.
My friend came round for coffee and chat.
We had a good yak.
Wished her a good weekend as she left.
Liquid lunch time.
Now out to do the final shift of the week.

Welcome aboard to my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
Nice hug to start Monday with!
Brew with Breakfast.
Thermal vest goes on.
Dressed in a Christmas themed dress.
Gives hubby a slowly wet 💋
Boosters were being giving out in the hall.
I parked around the corner.
Swaps my Santa hat for 2 winter hats with a pair of gloves. I was umming about whether to put on my boots, as the rain was forecasted to come in at 10am.
I didn't bother with the boots.
I put on my lights.
Now let's go to work....
Half way through my shift, the rain came to visit!
A blue 20 plate Skoda went past me,
Was it the same one that mounted the kerb and drove around me a few months ago????
Still some parents are choosing to cross over the road further up from me instead of crossing with me. Once they drop the child at school, they cross with me!
It was still raining when I finished.
I changed coats and walked down the road to the Post Office.
There were two on the tills in the Post Office.
While I was waiting with steamed up glasses, the middle cashier said to the customer she was serving:
"I lost my dad four weeks ago and still suffering."
The customer said,"Sorry to hear about it."
Then it was my turn to be served.
She asked "If I had heard anything from the Death Row Prisoners I had wrote to?"
"Not yet, fingers crossed,"I replied.
Now back to the car in the rain.
I picked up the newspaper on the way home.
I put on the coffee machine.
Got changed.
Now to use and abuse the Abs machine.
I did about 55 ab crunches.
I had a good workout for 20 minutes.
Now out comes the Spinning Bike.
I did another 15 minutes workout.
Bike went back in the Dining room.
Coffee time.
I carried on watching two episodes of
I am a Killer on Netflix.
Killer in the Eyes of the Law:
Kenneth Foster's death sentence is commuted just hours before his
execution, but he asserts that his punishment under an unusual Texas law
is unfair.
The Mockingbird
Raised
in an environment of drug addiction and crime, teenager Justin Dickens
commits murder but disputes the prosecutor's version of events.
Lunchtime.
Now for part two.
I parked Sexy Beast in the car park of the old Medical Centre.
That lowing sun is going to make it interesting later. Walked up to put on my lights.
My friend appeared with his dog, and we walked back down, where my other friend was.
Time for a good rabbit!
I said goodbye to my friends.
Now to see how it goes this afternoon.
Oh dear, I had my stick straight out in front of me, when a skoda did the limbo Dance under my stick, my stick even touched his roof rack as he went under!
Next time he might he may not be so lucky!
Once I got back to Sexy Beast.
I couldn't get into the driver's side.
I thought about climbing over the passenger seat. With the gear stick and my lollystick in the way,
Bad idea!
I dropped the hand brake and rolled the car forward.
So much, I could actually open my driver's door!
Then off home I went!
I covered up Sexy Beast as the temperatures were going down during the night.
Hubby wasn't going to snooker tonight, as there was a bad fire in Kidderminster and lots of roads were closed, and he wouldn't make the snooker after visiting his dad.
Time for a brew!
I wrote yesterday's blog post.
Then started on the the Meat Free Stir Fry.
Hubby came back and had a sloppy wet one 😘
I asked him to put the new duvet into the duvet cover after tea.
He sighed after I told him!
"Anymore of that, and I will find some more chores for you to do!" I said
Tea is ready.
The door on my Advent calender is:
While I was loading up the dishwasher.
He huffed and puffed putting the new duvet into the duvet cover.....
Moaning afterwards, that the duvet struggled to fit into the duvet cover.
King size duvet →duvet cover!
Easy!
We carried on watching I Am A Killer.
Sympathy for the Devil
Sentenced
for a triple murder linked by police to Satanism, Miguel Angel Martinez
becomes the youngest person ever on death row in Texas.
Looked into today's newspaper.
Mike Smith was an English singer, songwriter and music producer.
In the 1960s, Smith was the lead vocalist and keyboard player for the Dave Clark Five. The band was a leading unit in the British Invasion of the United States, and were the Beatles' main British rivals before the emergence of the Rolling Stones.
He would have been 78 years old 🎈
He died aged 64 in 2008.
Fritz Fryer was the lead guitarist of the Four Pennies, (born David Fryer in Oldham, Lancashire) He was a grandson of the noted pianist and teacher Herbert Fryer.
He would have been 77 years old 🎈
He sadly died on 2 September 2007, in Lisbon, Portugal, from pancreatic cancer.
Roy Orbison was an
American singer, songwriter, and musician known for his impassioned
singing style, complex song structures, and dark, emotional ballads. His
music was described by critics as operatic, earning him the nicknames
"the Caruso
of Rock" and "the Big O." Many of Orbison's songs conveyed
vulnerability at a time when most male rock-and-roll performers chose to
project defiant masculinity. He performed while standing motionless and
wearing black clothes to match his dyed black hair and dark sunglasses,
which he wore to counter his shyness and stage fright.
