They say a week is a long time in politics. I'm not a politician but i've found this week already too long, and it's still Thursday.
Come to think of it October has been too long. That's mostly because on most days there's been plastering, painting, and lots of dusting, sweeping, and washing paint off the things. Jane the helper, is not helping because her index finger is partly gnarled off and she's got a seven stitch rip on her hand. Her persian cat attacked her after she fed some stray cats outside her house. So i've been having to clean up on my own, unless i want to get worked up prodding the children to help. In any case, they are not home for most of the day during the week.
Last week rain soaked me to the bone on the only day i wasn't carrying my umbrella. This Monday the chill started maturing into a bad bad cold. Which turned into a bronchitis. On Wednesday, a sneezy Ulysses went to Stockholm for a work related conference. Wednesday night i took our youngest son to Emergency as he developed an allergy to the fine dust in the house. Thank God it was mild and controlled with the medication given. Thursday night I phoned up and asked Ulysses about his day. I didn't recognise his voice when he answered. Ulysses was too poorly to attend the conference so he stayed in his hotel bed today. Tomorrow he will fly back to Ogygia. My youngest son is tonigt sleeping at my in-laws and will not come home until i have exterminated the dust created by house repairs. Tonight i told Vince, the plasterer, that tomorrow house make over ends.
i'm all set for a better weekend. Hope your week was long enough for all the things you wanted to accomplish but not long enough to fit in any undesirables. How is your weeking going anyway? Do write and let me know. :)

It's Halloween.
I have been good this week so I expect a treat! I got one already.... yesterday I was surprised with a massive commercial Halloween cookie. It's the thought _____ not the calories!!? But then wishing me a goulash Halloween!!? OK it's the saying______ not the ingredients!!
On Wednesday, I was leaving work and I was already feeling good about the rest of the week. It was just the attitude I adopted and wanted to ascertain that nothing was going to stop me from having a good rest of the week. I felt a lot of love. I made sure to eat a hearty apple and spice, and maple oatmeal every morning in my special bowl. For other norishment, I wondered into the library and borrowed some items.
I live around trees and I have noticed a lot of changes. Just listen to this clip about why certain changes take place:
