Seeing Concord, the new house on the plot of my old seaside house, was an odd experience. It wasn't to my taste but of the Grand Design style and it was very elegant in a modern glass structure sort of way. There was too much Ikea furniture but then I am of the same ilk in my seaside place. What I found very strange was the bits of me they had kept and enshrined including my self painted bathroom tiles that are now in their kitchen. I told them that mostly they were done by Designer Susan, who they loathe. They're probably trying to hack them off the wall now. There was also a very rubbish screen that I had painted and some oddments of furniture all given pride of place. Oh well, it's nice to have fans I suppose.
I had a go at Mad Carina yesterday about her static lifestyle - a bit rich coming from me who has been horizontal for the best part of two weeks. Time to get out the trainers and go for a run. I am going swimming this morning then I will nag Carina into action. Shopping is not exercise, dear friend. If it was, I'd be the leanest fittest woman in Britain.
I have a cough. It's a nasty little smokers cough. No more yucky smoking for me.
Goals for this week: Ditch this cough, cut a perfect glass circle, learn to operate my new phone, alter Claire's apron, swim, get fitter and make delicious blueberry cupcakes. Oh, and lose weight rather than put on weight.
Of course there are other things on the list such as accommodating the wants of Mr Smith and being a good wife but there is a limit to my self improvement in one week. Anyway, I'll probably be a bit tired with all the physical activity I'm planning.
