A busy day!

Today has been hectic and we managed to achieve a lot! We had a lazy start and watched a little bit of Saturday Morning Kitchen before putting loads of items onto eBay. Our last lot didn't go very well, and it never ceases to amaze me what sells and what doesn't! I also advertised some books on our residents' Facebook page to give away for free, and a couple of people replied, which was good! The conservatory is still full of "stuff" but I'm determined to take it to one of the charity shops on Wednesday!

I still had some clothes belonging to my parents so I sorted them out and washed a few lovely scarves to show Mum tomorrow when she comes over for a cup of tea. Sophie re-heated some chicken, rice and vegetables for lunch and we enjoyed them with nachos and cheese. 

The weather today was sunny and cold first thing, and then it clouded over in the afternoon. No more snow is forecast for the time being and all the snow that fell late last week has well and truly disappeared. 
Keith was supposed to have been going to watch Sileby play this afternoon but the match was called off. We had no idea why as the early frost had all gone by 3pm! 

Sophie and I played Scrabble in the evening and sipped cocktails made with the Prosecco we won last night. They were delicious! Keith cooked chicken en croƻte with lots of vegetables and baked potatoes which went down very well as we haven't had this particular dish for a while.

Our viewing choice this evening was Murder on the Orient Express with a plethora of celebrities in the film. I ordered the film from Amazon Prime as I wanted to go and see it when it first came out in cinemas. However, I was disappointed and fell asleep halfway through! We decided to watch the rest tomorrow evening when I hoped I'd be more awake!
