Hello and welcome to the home of Word of the Week. A nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. The idea of the linky is to reflect back on your past week and share it with us. It’s great if you can sum it up in a word or phrase, hence giving us your Word of the Week. My word this week is ‘shiny’ and you can read more about that below.
I’m not totally strict on using just a word or phrase. But please try to stick to the theme of summing up your week. There are not too many rules with this linky, just remember to read at least another couple of posts in the link up after adding your link. And please only add one post to the link up each week, multiple posts will be deleted. I will read and comment on all posts and tweet them out for you. I also have a Pinterest board devoted to Word of the Week and I will add posts to Mix Please add the badge below to your post so that others may find us and join in. If you comment or tweet then please use the hashtag #WotW

MY WORD OF THE WEEK – Shiny
It’s a lovely shiny new week. (well okay, it’s pretty dull outside at the moment) but I’ll explain more in a moment.
We started with an extra bank holiday on Monday thanks to the Coronation. I did enjoy watching it on television, well, most of it. We didn’t have a BBQ but we did have hot dogs and party food. The coaches were very shiny 🙂
Then on Tuesday I had my blood tests and actually went into a supermarket. It’s not often I do that now. But Wednesday was a very exciting day when we went to order a shiny new car. We had already made up our minds that we were going to get a Peugeot 2008 and in the showroom we loved the car. I sat in the driver side as I’m going to have adaptations fitted because I got my driving licence re-issued. I wasn’t comfortable but I’m sure by adjust the seat I could probably make a small journey. I’ll see how it goes. The car was a lovely shiny silver colour and that’s the colour we decided to go for. It’s actually called cumulus, like the cloud.
Then on Thursday The Little Man had a shiny new laptop. Yes, it’s silver too, so pretty shiny! He had some money come through this week and we’d already agreed on a laptop but the rest has to go into his Savings Plan for when he’s 18. I only agreed to the laptop on one condition. He has to do more work at home. He’s getting very un co-operative lately with his home ed. (Apart from School of Rock.) So I’ve signed him up to a couple of online courses for him to try. We are not getting on too well with a curriculum based education, so we are doing things he’s interested in like coding and music.
Ohh! That is exciting about the new car and you driving too. Hooray for Little Man’s new laptop. I hope it encourages him with the home education.
We have got a shiny new boiler which was the highlight of my week. hehehe x
Ooh a shiny new car how lovely! I like silver as a colour. Hope the new laptop gives your son some inspiration to do his work, it can’t be easy for either of you.
How exciting to have ordered a lovely shiny new car. Hope the shiny new laptop helps Little Man engage a little more with his learning and that he enjoys the online courses. #WotW
Great news about the car and the laptop. I hope the Little Man enjoys his education now. Stay safe on the roads!
What a great word. Our latest car is silver. My first was silver too. I hope you enjoy it. A new laptop sounds fun too. I was wondering when I might need to get my little lady a laptop. I’m mac based but I’m not sure I will be getting her one of those! #WotW
