I won't quote or use Smilies just in case but thank you everybody for all your kind words. Trying to get back into some sort of routine now after all the excitement:
- Step class this morning. Several people have mentioned that I'm looking slimmer so that's motivated me to keep going
- Popped into the market town after to post my sale (#wellchuffed). I hope they like it
- Prawn and avocado mayonnaise on a baked potato with salad for lunch
- a little admin work
- did some filing
- tidied and dusted the living room
- painted a butterfly which I'll list tomorrow. I have the perfect vintage frame for it so I think it's one for the florists
- M&S delivered the picture frames I ordered. Just need the mounting kits and hinging tape to arrive and then I can take some paintings down to the florists
- Chard (from the garden), Tomato & Ricotta Bake from the meal plan for supper tonight. We had it a side salad with lettuce and cherry tomatoes from the garden too.
Happy Monday all

Congratulations on selling your first picture they are lovely although I must admit I loved the framed one especially in that beautiful frame not sure about silver fish they really creep me out for some reason

Thanks for joining me DT. Can't believe you've taken the time to read all of the diary - I hope you were fuelled by a large glass of Merlot :rotfl:
The frames are beautiful - which is why I couldn't resist them at the time
I promise not to post any more gribblies on the diary - including Silverfish :eek: Don't want to give people nightmares.
I hope you're able to stick around. Will pop off now to see if you have a diary so I can return the compliment.

Thanks Megela. The butterfly is listed now if you wanted to take a look. An Oak Bush Cricket will be going up soon though :eek: so you'll just have to close your eyes for that one.
