SATURDAYS SMILES


 Good day Bloggets, well it’s lovely quiet and peaceful right now apart from the Little Fella pacing back and forward waiting for his Daddy to return. Hub and Teen are out and about having a Dad Son time. Smile… I have sent them on a mission.

 

It’s raining outside and so cold I’m about to crank the heating on. It’s windy too. This is like November.

 

At last I have the name of my Sons hotel where he is going. Gosh, looked it up and it looks quite nice. Very basic, but a four star. Mind you, I don’t know how they can class it as that as it has no facilities apart from a pool and a couple of table games. But it’s right on the beach.

 

I love Greek food absolutely love it. One day I would love to go to Greece on a holiday.

 

The ice-cream van has just pulled up in the street and The Little Fella has jumped on the windowsill to look at what the noise is all about. The van plays a jolly tune. “Green sleeves.” I mean, would you have that as your tune if you owned an ice cream van? What would my tune be? Hmm. Let me come back to that…

 

I wouldn’t care, you have to blooming be like Jack Flash to catch him. He stops at two places in our avenue of all sorts and is out of ear shot within fifty seconds.  Teen went a couple of weeks ago and he came in laughing. I asked what he was finding amusing? He replied. “Gosh he is a happy chap! I asked him was he OK? His answer through a frown was no. I’m fed up. Quitting this **** job in a couple of weeks and I can’t wait to get out of here.”

 

 I said to Teen. “Out of here? Does he never leave his van?” Teen replied. “Mum I think he meant out of the job.”

 

I knew that, clown.

 

So my tune? Lollipop? Or something like the sun has got its hat on. Hehehe. Mind you, our sun has probably got his hat on, to keep the rain from his hair… Does the sun have hair? OK, I’m being silly…

 

We are trying to buy a microwave. Do you know how difficult it is to now buy kitchen appliances if you can’t see? So, hobs with flat ceramic tops, push a part of the hob but there are no buttons or risen parts to find where you are meant to push and what number is it on? Your guess is as good as ours. Microwaves are the same. All touch screens. We found a dial one but we have gone through two in two years. The other dial ones the dial keeps turning it has to be a dial that turns so far so we know again what number it is on. Washing machines are impossible again, down to one may be two to choose from. They are screen display too they are even making kettles for goodness sake where by everything is visual. I think within the next five years; we won’t be able to do things in the kitchen on our own. It terrifies me I am being honest now it really worries me. Please Blogget manufacturers out there reading this, yes, you. You know who you are? Please next time you are buying looking or designing anything for the home, please close your eyes. If you can’t use it, please don’t choose it? One hundred people in the UK every day start to lose their eyesight. One day, it could be you. You don’t have to be born with an eye condition to go blind. Believe me, most of my friends who can’t see or those who I talk to through my volunteering, were born with perfect sight.

 

Hub and I have had a lovely day Teen has entertained us as he came in and out of work. To eat. He was full of fun and had me in stitches with laughter. He dances and because I can’t see him he gets a hold of my hands and dances around the floor with me. And he is so strong you don’t argue, I just kill myself laughing. It’s great to see him so happy. Almost back to his old self before he met the dreaded one. She tried to kill him off but thank goodness she failed and I hope she has fallen down a big hole now.

 

Well it’s a quadruple rollover on our Lotto tonight. 14 million. That would be amazing. Life changing. What’s the difference between a man arguing with his wife and a man with a lottery ticket?

The man with the Lottery ticket has a chance to win…

The quickest way to double your money when playing the Lotto is to fold your money and put it back in your pocket.

 

Well on that note, good luck with your winning balls tonight. X
