Monday, Monday, so good to me!

Oct 16, 2023 17:31

Monday hits us all again eventually! And I have to say I've had a pretty good one. I work at home on Mondays (and Thursdays & Fridays! :), lucky me!), so that is always a good way to start the week! I do a leisurely commute downstairs and 1 minute later, sign into my work laptop! I love it! It's great since driving or catching the train to work at the office these days looks more like an hour each way! This morning I didn't have too much to do, and this afternoon I was busy with spreadsheets and a meeting, and they both went well, so I have no complaints. Now I am happily sitting in my comfy lounge communing with my favourite comm, so life is good!

How are you all doing? Did your Monday kick off well, if it's underway, or what are you planning for it, if it's just beginning or still a few hours off?

Here at the comm, I need YOUR HELP! We are still on less than 3 million words for 2023, so PLEASE if you haven't updated your counts in a while, go in and DO IT NOW! Never mind that Oct. is only halfway through and you may not want to add this month's words yet - if you haven't put anything in for any months previous, NOW'S GOOD! Thank you! ;-)

Additionally, get your comm friends on board (old, new, haven't added words since forever, making them all the time - it's all good!)! Also, take this as a time to renew your commitment to yourself as well as the comm - I WILL MAKE MORE WORDS THIS MONTH! I intend to do so, and I'd love it if you would too! I believe we can still hit 5 MILL for 2023, so let's make it happen! Thank you for listening, this PSA is now complete! LOL.

Please scroll back through the week for some excellent prompts, or just chase up the tags if you prefer to do it that way - we have all our regulars all happening, and our brand new LONG CHALLENGE, 5 + 1, is just kicking off, so HEAPS of things to help you get busy! We'll love you for it!

What else? Big Buddy should be at around 51%, which means we are already over halfway through October! GULP! Are you on track, way ahead, or falling behind? Need any help? Discuss here!

Flash challenge for this week: To Boldly Go! Use it how you will! Give us something quick, and link it here for my undying gratitude and appreciation!

Plans for the rest of the week? Well, I have some fun things lined up for the weekend: On Friday, it's The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the Auckland home of the movie for many years in the 70-80s, called the 'Hollywood Cinema'; Saturday I have my primary school's 150th anniversary celebrations (suffice to say it turned 100 while I attended there... my God, I feel old!), and then our local playhouse is putting on Sweeney Todd so that's where I'll be Sat. night; Sunday it's the Auckland Zoo to help my animal-mad daughter celebrate her 25th birthday. PHEW! By Monday, which is the LABOUR DAY holiday here in NZ, I will need a rest! I'm going to try using at least some of the day to create SOMETHING I CAN COUNT HERE!

I will sign off now, and please excuse all my CAPS! I am feeling ENTHUSIASTIC, so I'm expressing myself! LOL and *rolls eyes at self* in old-fashioned LJ speak! ;-)

HAVE A GREAT WEEK, EVERYONE!
