Doing stuff and gathering books
I just scrolled back my flist almost a week to see what you all are up to.
I've been very busy! So busy I still haven't finished setting up my sale I've been spamming you with.
I've been sick, like I said. Then I was working. And going out and seeing people and doing stuff outside the house like a non-hermit. Go me! (I don't have enough friends and I don't get out nearly as much as I should.)
And I've been going to the swimming pool. Yesterday I tried out the one in Kentish Town, which has a beautiful victorian ceiling with skylights. And going to Aikido classes. Which I walk to: one hour each way. I'm feeling so virtuous!
The down side to all this physical activity is that my appetite has grown and being weak willed I have started eating more, so I'm not actually losing any weight.
I have also been buying books and borrowing books from my local libraries. Look at my pile of books to read!

The last book in my pile is for me to find a painting to copy to put on my wall. I love Hundertwasser and his style is perfect for how I want to decorate my room. (I'm still missing my red bookcase, red lamp-shade and red desk light.)
Who wants to help me choose a painting for my wall? I've leafed through the book and come up with two likely candidates so far. Opinions?
