Day 30.

I made the thirty posts, just not one every day. Looking at the years worth of posts, I did manage to post more in November than I did the first few months of the year! I just lamed out and borrowed a naming convention for the day from a dear friend... it was just way easier than coming up with a snappy title today, there are none floating around.

I like NaBloPoMo... being able to look back and see what you did for a month, or didn't do as the case may be. Christmas is around the corner, and I am busy making my lists - what gifts to buy, baking to do, stretching that all mighty dollar as far as we can.

Mondays are my scattered day - I find that it feels like I am frittering away time, picking up after the weekend, feeling a bit aimless. Today we made some sugar cookies, and I am going to tidy up a bit, maybe get the laundry put away, and well, that's about it for excitement.

Went to a first birthday yesterday. What chaos. There were so many little kids, made me grateful I don't do daycare. O M G !!!! Little ones, a few B's size, and a few bigger kids. Then all the adults. Lovely party, but almost too many people inside and lots of noise.

On a total aside, it seems many of my favourite authors at some time delve in to an Egyptian book/theme. It's amazing how intriguing all things Egyptian are. When I visited Egypt in 1999 someone said to me that once you taste the Nile, you will be back. I believe that. What I saw whetted my appetite for more. I didn't make it much farther than Cairo and there is so much more to see.
