There has been a lot going on for me recently. With my job change, a major move, and a new book all happening this month, my head has been spinning. I thought I’d share a few things that I need to accomplish in the month of October.

1. Organize My Daughter’s Birthday. She’s turning eight the weekend we are moving halfway across the country. That means I need to plan a party for her the weekend before.

2. Girl Guide Cookie Day. The same weekend as her party we also have to go out selling Girl Guide cookies. I plan on buying a box or two for our drive.

3. Final RWAC Meeting. I’m going to try not to get all emotional. This will be my last face to face meeting for a long time with this wonderful group of men and women. While I’m still keeping my membership, I’m going to miss seeing them on a monthly basis.

4. Wrap-up Old Job. I need to tie up all the loose ends before I transition into my new position. Only three weeks to go *eek*.

5. Move. Going halfway across Canada in a two day drive. I’ve done this a few times now, and know exactly how painful it is. My poor cat is going to have a fit.

6. Temporary Accommodations. We’re going to be staying in either a condo or a hotel for six weeks while we wait for the close date for our new house. Thankfully, work is footing the bill.

7. Start New Job. I’m moving into a management position. I’m really excited about the job and the challenges it will bring. A bit scared too LOL!

8. Finish Novella. Come hell or high water, I’m finishing that novella this month!

9. Plot for NaNoWriMo. While I won’t have to do any crazy writing until November, I still need to plot some basic things out so I won’t get slowed down because of a block. Being a pantser, I probably won’t stick to it, but it helped me last year.

10. Halloween. Candy…enough said.

11. New School. We need to get the kids registered in their new school. Because we doubt the temporary accommodations will be near where our home will be, that will mean we’ll have to drive them until the end of November.

12. Buy Doctor Who. This may seem minor, but I need to buy series one and two of Doctor Who. It was going to be my present to myself after the sale of The Bond That Ties Us. The book came out in July and I have yet to buy it! This month for sure.

13. Sweet and Spicy Spells. I need to start doing some book promotions for Sweet and Spicy Spells! This is the very hot novel I co-wrote with Renee Field. I hope you all love it as much as I do. And here’s the cover again for good measure!!
