November notes

Some totally random November things. Picture from here

Counting down to:
Stu finishing up his work project and not coming home stressed and upset anymore.
Mom and dad visiting from Singapore
Cherry picking weekend
Holidaying with Stu at the end of the month

Reading:
Ice age, a novel about travelling on the road, easy reading but nothing to rave about.

Watching:
Gossip Girl season 1 on DVD, I know I'm pretty far behind, but I missed so many episodes on TV, I wanted to watch season 1 before catching up with the rest of the world.

Haunted by:
A Model Daughter: The killing of Caroline Byrne. Watched it on TV last night and it left me thinking deeply about life, relationships, the poor dad, love, hate, greed, everything.

Looking forward to:
The holiday season
Buying pressies and gift wrapping everything nice and pretty.
An end of year getaway in the country.

Raving about:
Avon Anew Rejuvenate Flash Facial Revitalizing Concentrate. There are only a few products I would ever rave about and this is one of them. It's seriously good.

I watched that Carloine Byrne show to. I had no intention to watch it but than I got really into it. It made me think how precious life is you never know whats going to happen.
Hoep you have had a lovely day!

I love this time of the year... I'm definitely looking forward to the holiday season and getting presents for everyone. Have fun catching up with Gossip Girl! I still think season 1 is the best in terms of plot line...
