And October it is

A very quick hi... just an update to avoid feeling guilty really (so knackered most of the time I honestly couldn't think of anything to talk about!)

We're now on to the tenth month and summer seems to have breezed away though the storms seem to make this island even stickier and hotter! So we're still wearing summer clothes in the rain though I've given in and am wearing socks already! Nice to get into some comfy trainers though after all the back-hurting never comfy summer sandals that my feet seem to hate. At least in winter shoes are comfier most of the time, though it's still a chore to find the right size as my feet don't seem to conform to standard sizes. So one nightmare coming up is looking yet again for a pair of shoes that won't hurt, won't be too high-heeled, girly enough to wear with a skirt but yet again not fashionable enough to hurt with every step (why don't they make feminine shoes that are comfy?!) To be honest it's got to the point where I'm thinking of having a pair made. Would definately turn out less of a chore!

What else is up with the month? Well, seems like Chirstmas is now less than 3 months away already (boy, I can still remember the post I wrote last Christmas, have all these months passed by already?!)

With the heat not so bad, even cooking seems nicer as soups come back into play so I can always count on them when I've no idea what to cook! It's also easier to stay inside when it's not so hot so weekend evenings in front of the tv seem preferable to going out, making 'what film to watch' an easier problem then 'where can we go that's not expensive, will be enjoyable and not the usual yet again'.

I should be off now as there's a list of things I should be getting done... which reminds me of one bad point about Autumn... my husband is back in trousers and shirts at work so the ironing piles up more often... off to do it now! Till next time!!!
