What's new

Tuesday beginning of Month?|Pad Patter 11.1

I used to be picky with things like that when I was at work, and liked the order for when Sarita was in school, but these days every day feels the same.... my parents Wedding Anniversary tomorrow...on the day of all souls.... none realized so they get to the hotel where the party was...no music? they couldn't play anything until midnight LOL so I kinda start November with my parents phone call...so is ok...but totally get what you feel±±±±±

Oh Courtney there's a story to tell there. I'll have to write it down and share it with you. To sum it up, changes and gratefulness and God's little "coincidences". Doing some pocket pages so it won't be so hard.
 
With no one in school, and being a stay at home wife/mom/grandma things pretty much feel the same every day. I don't get thrown for a loop very often. But the year we took our month long road trip was very interesting. We left right before Mothers Day in May and got home the 6th of June. That summer I totally lost the summer months! I don't know how that happened. I kind of lost the rest of June but I did enjoy July. And then come August I was thinking it was time for the holidays! And it wasn't even FALL yet!! It was the WEIRDEST. THING. EVER. And my desire for Thanksgiving and Christmas to come was so strong that I almost couldn't handle it. We got our Christmas tree out...yes! We did!! and decorated it for Autumn and that helped to calm my feelings down. And it felt really nice having it up. But that was just the weirdest thing ever. Ever!!! To lose that whole summer like that. By the time September arrived I was thinking...lets just skip October and get on with it! I love September but can do without October.

I think it must have been because of the trip. We had never done anything like that before and I think it just somehow threw my body's time clock out of kilter for the rest of the year.
 
I know exactly what you mean! I had all my Wednesday To-Dos written in my calendar for today for this very reason.
 
The weird part for me was my planner. The Happy Planner part of it has October 31st in the November section, but my To-Do list inserts (I have a subscription and get a new set every month) were all in the October tab. It felt good to clean October out of my planner this morning and have everything in one section again!
 
I've been sick for 10 days now and can barely remember what my name is LOL. So it doesn't take much to turn me around at this point. For some reason I thought it was Wed this morning. I just want to go back to bed :) Next week will be weird too b/c the time change happens this wkend which always throws things off kilter for a bit. Not looking forward to it being dark an hour earlier in the afternoon.

Oh gosh... feel better soon. And I know about the time change. Can't we do away with it already?!?!?! Everyone hates it. LOL.

I want you to know that I behaved myself admirably. :giggle
 
i'm always wondering what day it is - the date? don't even ask me, i'm constantly checking calendars or my watch or phone!
 
I'm so glad I'm not alone!! I have thought it was Monday all day long!
 
We didn't go trick or treating because it's not that big in Australia and I didn't want Melody to be disappointed. She still dressed up and we had candy just in case but she still went to bed on time. Then it was Tuesday and school again and a normal day. The month starting on a Tuesday didn't really phase me this time... the fact that it is already November. That scares the crap out of me!
 
Oh and I am so jealous of you all getting Thanksgiving! Our US friends said that next time we come over we have to come for Thanksgiving and stay until after New Years!
 
It's been a really rough week for us. The kids were exhausted on Tuesday & 6yr old with ADHD was just overwhelmed. I ended up keeping them home yesterday to just regenerate. Wednesdays are short days anyways, so I don't feel too guilty. I'm looking forward to the time change & feeling rested.

@bestcee I love that siggy! Mine has sizing issues & I just don't feel like working on it again.
 
I had a friend take me to the USNA Halloween Concert last Saturday and I didn't get home til 11:30! way past my bedtime unless I'm watching a movie on tv. I have been a bit confused about what day it is all week. I think also, with Dick in SC for two weeks, I lose more daily focus because there are no set meal times, etc. Once I got my November calendar made and up in the kitchen I DO know what month it is at least!
