A better energy day today. No rain but cool and I managed my entire list of errands, including a 45 minute jaunt to my fav village where I found a friend at the craft show to sell some of the calendars and had a bowl of chili for breakfast, stopped into my fav "general store" - It has changed with the times and caters to cottagers with all sorts of interesting clothes and bric a brac; I almost left with nothing but a nifty door mat caught my eye - LIVE LOVE LAUGH it declared. I bought it and then, in a flash of insight, gave it to a friend as a house warming gift for her son and his wife (the egg folks).

IT's November and I still have quite a lot of calendars left; have not sold enough to pay the printer! Well, pay me as the printer is paid. Dropped off empty boxes for my friends who sell on ebay from their antique shop, egg cartons for friend who will deliver more fresh eggs tomorrow, groceries and picked up more small boxes, library for a couple books in hope that one will be OK. It is so far. More calendars to the bookstore which seems to be the best place. (up to $700 of the $2000!) And a few things to thrift shops.

Negotiated with book store about selling some pottery. Need to send him pics but I have none right now. Will have to drag out boxes and make a picture display. I did manage to spend a little time in the studio in prep for HOPEFULLY getting in there tomorrow - a warmer day with sunshine - solar gain! predicted! Pictures, load stuff in kiln and make more ---HOPE!

Then I came home and ATE..... Hoping not to eat much more today! Emails are deleted and one more thing to check on FB.
