Goodbye Harley :'(

I really need this week to be over.

In the morning, handed in a forgotten P.E to school for son.

I made a really nice Cheesecake too!

We hit the afternoon, then it went downhill fast...

Jack came out of school in tears.

Detention for not having his PE kit for his PE lesson..

Excuse me??? 

His PE kit had been sitting in the reception from 

9.15am -3.15pm!!!!

I went in the school, 

Trying to sort the lack of communication problem out

They are not at all interested....:(

I am taking it higher

Don't worry!

Our 5 month old hamster called Harley has passed away.

My kids are unaware of this, as they are on a evening hike with Scouts until 1am.

It doesn't just rain, it pours in my life at the moment!

 

You Talking To Me?

What a Thursday I have had!!

I had 9 cars driving under my raised Lollypop stick!

 I had a trip to the hospital for a X-ray on my left knee.

I still have the Baker's Cyst on my left knee.

One parent in her car,was shooting me daggers while in she was in the queue for the traffic lights.

 I also had a certain Taxi Driver moment of

I wasn't called by my first name, only by being shouted at by the words:"Hello?Hello?Hello?"

I will have to add a name badge tomorrow on my uniform!

We have lost Guy Hamilton, Victoria Wood, in the last 24 hours, now Prince has died.

This year is turning is out to be terrible for celebrity deaths :(

 

Spit & Span

Welcome to a sunny hump of the week.

I have been living in my big sunglasses all day!

The morning shift of my job, I was nearly taken out by two cars that refused to stop :(

I did do a little bit of a walk....

39 minute walk, 0.14 miles...

Not bad for little walk around my branch of Morrison's!

Early spring clean in my house.

Had a little play with Henry.

Mopped the kitchen floor, 

Polish and duster came out too!

Back on the baking tomorrow....

Anyone for a bit of Victorian Sponge?

 

Going The Extra Mile!!

I made the most of the sunshine today.

I was up for a challenge....

I started the normal walk around the lake

 First lap = 29 minutes and 40 seconds.

 I thought what the hell,lets do another lap!

Two laps later =

2.77 miles

59 minutes and 14 seconds 

Smoke was coming off my trainers when I finished.

I was very pleased with myself.

Day off tomorrow from walking.

It's Baking time instead!

 

Giving Me Ideas!

Back on the wobbly work wheel today.

Made the most of my time, by having a trip to Webb's.

Coffee,chat and toast :)

Even walked around their gardens for 20 minutes

Giving me loads of ideas on what to do with my garden, and what to put in it!

 If I had the money, and time, I would have a garden like theirs!

Going to make the most of the predicted sunny weather over the few days...

Walking and baking...

Sunglasses and sun cream at the ready!..

 

The Hill's A Bit Steep!

Nice bit of sunshine today.

Made the most of it.

We travelled to Droitwich Spa

Spent some vouchers and had free coffee at Waitrose.

Now to visit the church on the hill..

Across the unmanned railway crossing(with care)

 Up the steep steps

Nice and peaceful by the church.

Had a look at some of the graves

Then straight back down the hill!

Walked off the free coffee we got from Waitrose!

UK Rock 'n' Roll singer Billy Fury would have been 76 years old today.

 

 

 

Nice To Buy More Of....

The weekend has started...

All my sons went off to Trampolining at Jump Nation in Birmingham,

We had some adult time.

As it is:

 we visited our local record shop.

Lots of nice vinyl to look through.

 Bought some vinyl from the 50's.60's and 70's.

Today it would have been Dusty Springfield's 77th Birthday...
