52 weeks of Happy: week 14

Hello again!

It's been a funny week.

It started with our rather over-excited trip to choose our puppy on Easter Monday.

On Tuesday I had to stay in all day, for two reasons:

1. My car was in for service 

2. I had to wait in for a delivery

So of course I got on with a bit of crochet
And did a bit of baking

Mary Berry's lemon drizzle traybake

Easy, very delicious - last piece

And all gone!

My car was returned in the evening with a clean bill of health and a new MOT

That definitely made me HAPPY!

She's over 11 years old and I've had her from new and certainly don't want to part with her!

The delivery?

Nah

That didn't arrive!

Mr B was supposed to collect Miss M on his way home from work

And he FORGOT!

Can you believe that?

Forgot his own Granddaughter!

Miss M was NOT happy!

Next morning, Wednesday, I got a text message to say the parcel would be delivered that day.

So I waited in

It didn't come

Was I happy?

Most definitely not!

I tracked it online, and was told delivery had been attempted and a card had been left!

Liars!

Another wasted day!

But at least Mr B remembered to collect Miss M after work and bring her back!

So she was HAPPY!

Thursday morning I tried to ring the delivery people; they put me on hold for a very long time, then cut me off!

Happy? No!

So Mr B rang them, and they promised it would be delivered that day, around 12 noon.

Did it come?

Most definitely not!

Finally, I could wait no longer, I needed to go shopping; so Miss M and I popped out to Waitrose.

We were just loading the shopping into the car when my phone rang - the delivery man was at the cottage, where was I?

Happy? Still a definite NO!

Grrrrrrr.......

Now you need to understand that we had been told the parcel could only be delivered to MY address, would have to be signed for by ME, and I would have to provide proof of my identity (a bit OTT I thought, who else would be at my address?)

But the delivery man said he'd left the parcel with a neighbour!

Happy? Getting there!

So, home, shopping unpacked, cup of tea made, Miss M dispatched next door to collect the parcel.

Nobody there!

Oh well...

Finally, when Mr B came home from work (he hadn't forgotten anyone or anything today!) we decided to go to the pub (it was curry night!) and collect the parcel on the way.

Success!

Happy?

YES!

What was in the parcel?

My new iphone!

HAPPY!

The rest of the week was fairly uneventful
I found some rather nice cake tins in Dun Elm Mill

Perfect for Poppy Cottage!

Mr B remembered to collect Mr R on his way home from work on Friday

We all had a haircut on Saturday

We took Mr R home on Sunday, and popped in to see both daughters at the same time

Then on Sunday evening we got an email from the puppy breeder with a new photo of our baby, now aged 5 weeks!

So cute!

HAPPY!
