1. It's official, I leave 3 weeks from today.
2. I'm tired and need a shower.
3. Overwhelmed with packing issues and citizenship app stuff.
4. Just want to go to bed but have to do something, anything on my list of thing that MUST be done!
5. Happy Hallowe'en!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

1) We got new bedroom carpet and it's RED;D
2) I spent the morning waiting for the carpet fitters to turn up, who were to be here mid-morning.  Who knew that 'mid-morning' means 11:30 am?!
3) Now I need to hoover the new carpet fuzzies up.
4) Lots of housework - no motivation.
5) Hooray for the weekend!

1.  The soundtrack of this day is "dingaling" (my cat's favourite mouse has a bell on it, and he's being a bit obsessive with it today)
2. I am reading the world's worst chick lit mystery thing.
3. I am going to start the Curly Girl routine today because my hair looks like crap crap crap no matter what I use on it.
4. Just called the ambulance for an old man who fell over.  I felt sort of weird.  All the other adults left and it was just me and about 40 teenage lookyloos waiting for them to show up.
5. The ressession has to have started.  I spent about 40 minutes in a bookstore, got a stack of books, and thought better of it.  Normally, I don't go into a bookstore because I have some weird compulsive book purchasing disease.
