Caution, meager posting for a bit

Since I am trying very hard to keep all of my thoughts and words for my novel I have to admit that my posts might be a bit light for the month of November. I am at the 7300 word mark and if I keep up the rate of 2400 words a day, I should be finished by November 20th. Wouldn't that be a treat! I feel really great at giving myself a deadline and sticking to it. I have lots of support here to give me time to write, so far all I have needed it two hours in the evening.

With winter fast approaching, we are going to be spending the weekend doing the last few outside chores and taking down the Halloween decorations. J still thinks he should be knocking on peoples doors and asking for candy, but we are slowing convincing him that it is a one day holiday until next year.

We had some snow the other day and it totally put me in the Christmas spirit. I am half finished gifts for the family, so I just need to work on the other half and some for freinds. I am trying to get all the difficult things out of the way early as we will be going in for our IVF in early December. All I am going to be doing after that is resting and hopfully snuggling some embroys for a long winter's sleep. It was at this time four years ago that we did our IVF for J, so this is not new to me at all.

We also said good-bye to Opa on Wednesday. It is always sad when he leaves, we miss him so much, so I have been trying to keep J busy so he doesn't miss him as much as us grown ups do.
