Day 55....lots of beautiful leaves....and who is that 'crunching'?

Day 55.

3 Girls and 4 Suitcases.


So. I am at the library again, the rain has stopped and the sky is blue and I have just spent more than 3 hrs with my notepad and book. The book is read and I now have to begin the task of trying to format a screenplay which is a wee bit daunting due to the many rules and jargon used. Still, forward I go.....tomorrow.
The annoying thing about sitting in the library is that you have no control of what other people do. The guy to the right was crunching his snacks (sounded like trail-mix/nuts) and I had to plug my right ear for that time. Then a guy sat down on the left and began tapping at his touchscreen which just kept making 'bloop' type noise. So I had to lean to the left, plugging that ear. Then the guy to the right started chomping into an apple-groan and sigh and groan again. Seriously, biting into what sounded like a huge juicy apple.....really? So it was back to plugging up my right ear and it's a good job that the pair of them weren't making noises at the same time or I wouldn't have been able to hold my book and pen. Lefty has just left the building and I am now hoping that my typing on my keypad may annoy righty, in vengeance. Oh Linsey, that's not nice-lol. Think I may need some Beech.
Right, yesterday saw the new microwave installed on the counter in the kitchen. Not nearly enough counter-space so I have had to put my coffee maker on the 'Island' but he doesn't seem to mind and still had my coffee ready for me at 7.10am
After I left the library yesterday, I did a wee bit bargain-shopping for coffee and then went home and had some home made soup. I haven't bought my soup pot yet but managed to make a decent portion in my biggest pot and then transferred it into a casserole. Yum. I am looking forward to another microwaved bowl, when I get home after finishing this.
I walked down to meet Ali from school and picked up some beautiful leaves on the way home. She had a good giggle at my glee of finding such beautiful colours and shapes.
The evening was cold in our wee unheated home. I said to Ali that we may have to put the heating on but she's determined that we'll make it to Nov 1st. When I chummed her down to school this morning, we could see our breath so I am not convinced-lol.
We both headed up to bed sharpish (to keep warm, na just kidding) and I had taken a fleecy blanket to add to my duvet as I had been cold on Monday night. Just as I was all snuggled in Ali shouted through that we hadn't done our plank-HUGE groan, from yours truly and the reply of "I don't care-I am not getting out of bed" after trying to chivvy me to get up she finally got out of bed and I told her that I'd do my 45 seconds under my covers.....and I did. I should get a bonus for doing so with weight on top.
And that was that. Much cosier sleep and challenge still on track.
Home for soup now. 
Lots of love to all,
Lxxx
