Trying To Get It!

Laugh and the world laughs with you;snore and you sleep alone - Anthony Burgess
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
This is one day, I am not to forget my rain mac...it's going to rain all day!⛆
But first....tea!
I gave everyone sloppy 💋💋💋 before they all left the house.
I had some quiet time to reflect that 6 years ago today, my mum passed away :'(
A sombre coffee and nibbles↓
Then I got onto the Child Maintenance place.
Over Easter, my ex-plum's employers sent a hugh amount of money to the CMS, with no details how much or to whom it was going to.
I had phoned up 2 weeks ago, saying they had no details as yet, you might have to wait another 4 weeks before you can have it!!!!
So I might get May's money before April.
I have two Birthday lists for June to get with both April's and May's maintenance. 
After that,
I had light lunch↓
 Now for some fresh air in the rain!
 
 It was still cold and damp.
I caught up with the Birthdays↓

 That rain is in for the day.
The topic of conversation:
The Avengers:EndGame
Some people had seen the film some had not.
So I did not give away any plot points whatsoever.
They liked my t-shirt!
I popped in to see my dad after work.
Lots of sorting things out.
Got home
(In the rain)
 
 After I got back from my other job...
Time to enjoy my coffee↓
I made a roast chicken dinner.
I sent some round to my dad.
In the meantime while sorting out my dad's accounts. His bank account had been hacked!
Onto the bank's fraud squad to sort it out!
I  hope this rain clears up my the weekend,
As I need to put one of my greenhouses up that arrived...
It was getting cold again.
It was nice to snuggle up to a warm body again.......🐪
