You won't even get past the 'Today' list.
I apologise, in advance.

Hmm, a Christmas competition. When was the last one? It might be a nice idea to have one this year. As we're still in October at the moment, I refuse to give it too much thought but I'll get back to it. Currently, I'm far too busy sewing my Wonder Woman costume for Halloween.

Not much going on with me. It is a case of time expanding to fill my little bits of jobs list and working through stacks of books and movies.

I did go to three concerts in the past three days (two country house concerts and one traveling choir) - that was pretty exciting for me to leave the house that often.

Halloween is just about upon us. I shall make my ghostie sugar cookies and take them to the city to give to my groan kids.

Good grief - 120 days? Seems like only yesterday. Must try harder. I was out of things for a few weeks due to falling over (OK, old people don’t fall over, they “have a fall”) and knocking out a couple (3) front crowns. All is sorted now though, so what’s the Christmas competition? Please, nobody sing “all I want for Christmas....” ;D

Happened to me a couple of weeks ago, Elizabeth, thankfully with nothing broken except the flask of coffee I was carrying. But it hurt for ages, and still does a little, so my full sympathies and empathies. But yes, I had that conversation with my daughter...
"What happened?"
"I fell."
"You had a fall?"
"No...I fell...tripped...over something...possibly my own feet..."
Mutual glaring.
I apologise, in advance.

Yes,Tarquin, and  my family tend to forget that I have always been prone to tripping over my own feet. It’s not a recent thing. Nor is it (necessarily) related to drinking wine...

As I didn’t make the list, I fear I may have died!

No, I looked on the list and it says you posted today. I think you're okay.
