Planning For The Big Day....

I had a little lie-in \o/
Hubby had his Valentine request read out on the local radio station.
Getting in the mood for Valentines..💗💗
Had another ride out...
 
I didn't do the Dunelm experience.
I did Lidl instead.
Got our meal for Valentine's Day... 💗
Went down to Morrisons to get what we couldn't get in Lidl.
Got a nice lunch...
 Wrote out the Valentine's Day Menu...
Followed by the use of a very warm hand.
As Hunt for Red October had docked for the next 5 days!

Adding Extra Warmth To It...

As we had a early night last night...
We were up far too early for a Saturday!
Sat in bed with a cup of tea,
Listening to the Sound of the Sixties..
 Quick play with Gear Stick.
Later on, another ride out...
Stocked up on Valentine's Day supplies
Waited for something...
 Coffee time!↓
 Nice views from the car park...
 
 Then off to make our Valentine Cards 💓
 At Hobbycraft.

 I waited in the little house outside....
  for my ride to .....
 Nice church on the hill...↓↓
Done a minimum of shopping to get my free coffee and magazine...
Dropped off some gardening magazines at a Charity Shop.
Looked what I picked up that was outside the shop???
That will go with my Lloyd Loom Collection!
Now to do more chop chop for tea.
We swapped the lamb for beef.
I try to add chilli flakes to it,
 the top came off,
and half a jar was added by mistake.....whoops
Everyone was moaning how hot it was except me...
I like it Hot Hot Hot!

Not Cold But Frozen!

Having another ride outside today!
 Got into the car park to the Doctors a bit early..
 While in the waiting room.
My hubby kissed me while a doctor walked past...and he looked back at us! 💋💋
I now have a Frozen Shoulder,
It could take up to 12 months to go.
As for left foot...
The Doctor says "Patience is needed for it to heal."
I replied,"I have the patience of Job".
I have another sick note...
(If I could go to work, I surely would)
Back to the warm house to enjoy coffee.. 
Looked through some cooking books for ideas for tea tonight.
 Now to do some chop chop...
Had to replace the Taleggio chesse for Gruyere cheese.
Another lovely recipe made :)
Had to catch up with loads of episodes of:

To Be Or Not To Be.....

Welcome to my Hump of the Week.
Had my first nibble and coffee of the day.
 Getting out of the house \o/
I popped into see Joe at Omega Therapies 
Got a nice smoking house :)
Now off to the hospital..
I saw the Consultant.
He touched the back of my left leg.
I screamed very LOUD...!!
More exercises need to be done by left leg..
Seeing him again in three weeks...
Visited town to get a watch strap for a new watch that lasted 24 hours 😬 
Market wasn't on
(Will try again on Saturday)
Found what I needed...↓
Remember the advert???↓↓
 Was we going to have something or not?
I thought about it...💭
 Of course we were...
Hazlenut nut latte....
(From next Wednesday, no chocolate or cake for the whole of Lent!😮) 
I looked up at the ceiling lights while drinking my coffee..
 Looked alot like my lamp shade I got at home..
Chatted with a old mate from my days at Royal Mail. \o/
He told me to be good...
He knows from old, I won't be 😈  
Gets home and has another cooking book delivered...:)
I had a chilled afternoon hunting down a Barry Manilow song I heard yesterday, but couldn't remember the title...
Soon found it :)
 I did more chop chop while I was listening to more good 70s music
The tasty result was:↓↓
Jerky Chicken,Stir Fry & Rice. 
Yummy!
Another  tough decision to make...
More Judge Rinder or House MD.....?
Let me think...💭
