Now that fall has arrived I'm starting to plan things for the holidays (my motto this year is keep it very, very simple), but I'm really not ready for it to be October the day after tomorrow. Time has dragged quite a bit over the course of the pandemic, but for the last year I've stayed busy with work and my art, and that seems to keep me from watching the calendar. It feels as if yesterday it was July. How can it be October?
Things are going quite well at the day job. I should finish up my current novel series next week, and then take some time off to think about the next one.
Our holidays will be quiet with just the two of us, but I have a couple of birthdays before the end of the year for which to make gifts. I've finished one and have to start the second now. I'm only making one Christmas gift for Katherine, and I'll make a meal and a cake for my guy as we've agreed not to buy anything for each other (hopefully he sticks to that.) I have three neighbors for whom I'll bake something for Christmas. That's it, so should be easy to keep things simple -- I hope!

First of all, I hope you weathered Ian unscarred. Reports are sketchy as to what the actual losses were. Please let us know how you are as soon as you can.
Secondly, what do you bake for your neighbors? I need some ideas.
I kind of wish ours was going to be simple this year. Maybe it's time for me to turn everything over to one of the girls. Or not. I don't know if I'm ready for that yet.
