The Smell Of A New Car....

Woo hoo it's Friday...

The weekend is soon here.

Enjoyed a half price breakfast at Webb's.

I left hubby to use his warm hands on Henry the hoover.

Even used a warm finger to put on the washing machine.

Hubby picked up his new car tonight.

I haven't actually gone out to look at it or look in it.

I peered through the window at it.

As it was too dark and raining...

The hunt for the Cabin bed continues....

Either too far away or too expensive!!

Goodbye Milky :'(

There has been a dark cloud over this house since last night.

Our oldest hamster, Milky (we had 3) had passed away.

We didn't want the children getting upset before school.

We have put him in a small Amazon box, ready to be buried in the garden.

Went to the same car showroom where hubby went on Sunday.

I enquired (or joked) how much they would give me for my Pink Princess for a part exchange.

They embarrassed themselves with the offer.....

I told them to stick their offer where the sun doesn't shine!

Since the kids came home, there has been non-stop tears over the deceased hamster.

I have high hopes happiness will return soon, a early night, and a hot chocolate might help!

 

Counting Down The Days......

Welcome to Hump Of The Week,

The green wellington boots came on during first shift of JOB 1

However after 10 minutes, it stopped raining.

Once finished, back home I go.

My hubby now realises I can talk a lot.

He is slowly recovering from his viral infection.

After a few days at home with me,

He will be well enough to go back to work, to give his ears a rest!

I have put my kid's names down for a Scout weekend.

I commented, "How we were looking forward to our own weekend away."

"You can't go too far, just in case,"I was told.

"Don't worry, we aren't leaving the country, just be holed up in a hotel with a four poster bed!"

"Do they know about the activities going to take place?"

"I do, I would love to go, my kids will so enjoy themselves doing them!" I replied.

Now to book that hotel.....

 

Never Enough Batteries....

What a day I have had!

I takes hubby down to our A&E as he was coughing up blood during the night.

After 4 hours of being tested, he has got viral infection on his chest/throat.

So I will be looking after him with my warm hands :P

At Job 2 after they learnt of hubby not being well.

" No sex for you then!" Said one co-worker

"I'm alright, I have a rabbit!" I replied.

"You go through a lot of batteries then?"

"I buy in bulk" I laughed.

"I know of a industrial strength car battery charger if you run out of batteries," one replied.

"If you ever wonder why the lights dim around here, I am too blame!" I replied,winking back at them

The 3 men had chronic blushes, when I left. My work here was done!

Bid,Bid,Bid, Damn It's Gone Too High!!!

Back on that wobbly work wheel...

The temperatures were going back up to 8c..:)

The plan today was to make 2 cards and do some yoga.

No chance!

First sort out the crap from recycling in one son's room.

Sew up some holes that appeared on their cuddly toys.

Then it was to try and bid for a Cabin bed.

The price was going up, up, up....

I stopped at £75.

The car salesman was trying to hunt my hubby down to see if he has changed his mind.

(As I held his balls firmly,) His answer was:

"Give me better price on my car!"

Now back to do some bidding....

 

I'm Starting To Look A Lot Like Dougal....

Hey hey hey it's Sunday...

I was looking a lot like Dougal the Dog, with a very large fringe (from Magic Roundabout)

So I had a trim of the fringe, and now I can see fully!

Enjoyed a free coffee and bargains at Waitrose.

I had fun with a car salesman who tried to take the piss with the part exchange price on my hubby's car.

I rolled my eyes when I saw the price he offered.

Hubby guessed I wasn't happy when I kicked his leg very hard under the table!!

So no car sale for the Salesman, and no upgrade for hubby.

Never mind, he hasn't quite got a Fred Flintstone car just yet!

 

Enjoying The Recipe Of Love..

The weekend starts here....

Had a lovely start to Saturday...

Tea in bed followed by a little love <3 <3 <3

We had a 2 hour window of having no kids.

They were watching the "Minions film" at the Library.

I bumped into loads of co-workers from my old job at Royal Mail.

Tried to find out a recipe from my huge stash of cooking books..

No luck :(

Good job Google came to the rescue....

Now to enjoy Smoked Salmon, & Lemon Risotto
