It’s time for a list, specifically an October list! More specifically, several October lists!
What I expect in October:
- 31 days
- 31 nights
- Temperatures to be on average cooler at the end of the month than at the start
- Many leaves on the ground
- Rain
- Air conditioners put away until next June or thereabouts
- Halloween
- Halloween candy
- Halloween candy to share shelf space with Christmas candy
- Thanksgiving
- A pseudo-turkey (a real one doesn’t work well with only two people to eat it, unless you really, really like turkey leftovers
What I have planned in October:
- To maybe drop below 160 pounds for real
- Don’t laugh, I’m serious
- To avoid all Halloween candy
- To also avoid the Christmas candy
- To probably avoid fudge
- Mmm, fudge
- To pick my NaNoWriMo 2018 novel and outline it in preparation for the glory of NaNoWriMo in November
- To finally settle on what I’ll be using for writing the above-mentioned masterpiece. Still leaning toward WriteMonkey.
- To run at least on weekends, no matter what the weather
- To take more pictures, especially of trees and their leaves
- To continue spring cleaning four months after spring ended
