RTBTCKI Heading for the End of the Year Rapidly

Hard to believe that we are down to a little more than a month and a half until 2019.

It will be nice to stop getting automated calls to go vote or about a candidate. Also the volume of mail that I am recycling will reduce. Not great for the US postal service since they get money for this.

I have a couple of projects that need to be done in the next two weeks. I need to measure Caroline today for one of them.

I am going to remove the Halloween decorations today leaving us with the fall lights before I switch it over to our holiday display.

Also need to get the holiday card together.

I would also like to get one or two other things done before the end of the year. I need to find my sculpting tool box which has vanished off the face of the earth.

It is fun to watch the cats settle in for their first nap of the day. Currently Mewlan is watching the starlings on our lawn. Fig is in her usual spot in the sun. Inky is stretched out by me with a paw on my leg. Yesterday all three cats were hovering around Caroline getting absent minded pats and comforting her in their strange way.

I am glad that Caroline had yesterday off. She had homework to do but it gave her a day to sort out her feelings and deal with what happened with her friend. She is on an even keel this morning and I think she will be OK at school.

I think I am going to start in the back of the house and work my way forward after getting things picked up in the yard.

I do need to go get more cat litter and cat food. Our grocery store stop carrying our favorite kind of little called Sweetscoop, which is made with wheat and bio-degradable. The cats like it so it is a win/win.

Tonight is bowling. It is nice bowling with another couple around our age.

I also need to finish putting away the leftover comics from Halloween and restore the living room to pre-Halloween. I need to put up my toys that I used in my Halloween card.

I had a thought and a cat crashing something to the floor just knocked it right out.

I am getting very easily distracted which is annoying to me. My stage manager brain has not kicked in the way it should.

Ah remembered what I was thinking about.

I love standard time. It makes sense to me and my body. I swear I have gotten more done since the time switch than I have in a while.

Best costume I saw this Halloween had to be the Grammar police with the phrase “To Serve and Correct” on the back of the shirt. I am thinking of a costume for a convention with a red pen to correct bad grammar and a copy of the Elements of Style for the rulebook. It's just an idea that I am going to cogitate on.

Between that and the fanfic puppet show, I have some ideas to work through.

Onto the next thing I want to finish writing.

I am grateful for Caroline having some time to breath before having to deal with school again.
