*Yawn*.....*sigh*....ZzzzZzzzz.......

Saw a great movie the other night...The Village. Really creepy. I kind of guessed that all wasn't as it appeared but it still shocked me and also left me with some unanswered questions. Dh took it back to the library yesterday but I put a hold on it again. I'm number seven of seven requests. It may be awhile before I see it again.

So, here I am preparing myself for another boring, long, uneventful day. I'll read the court procedure book and get pissed off at the contractor again...just like yesterday and the day before. I'm burnt out on it. We can't do it without a lawyer and we can't afford a lawyer. The one that worked with dh during the equalization hearings told him that it would cost him nearly everything that we may gain so it wasn't worth it. I don't understand the system. There is a con artist out there ripping people off...repeatedly...and since they aren't knocking down big $$$ per scam they are basically untouchable. Meanwhile, there are government employees out there enabling them. It makes me sick.

Here it is November. It will get nearly 80 degrees today. The mornings are beautifully crisp. We haven't had a frost yet but I'll have to bring the plants in next week probably. I have several geraniums (pelargoniums?) and a couple of lemon verbenas. Plus, the Christmas tree. I don't know where I'm going to put them since the chickens are still in the room. The chicks are just now getting their adult feathers and they look really ratty. Mom calls them teenagers when they are at this stage. Kung Pao would be able to keep them warm during the night but she'd be likely to run off with the grownups at first light and mornings are much too cold for them. I need to call the neighbour and ask her if she still wants Peck. Dh really wants me to get rid of Trouble since he's become so agressive. Neither of them bother me except with their miserable crowing all the time but Peck attacks dd and Trouble attacks dh so I need to let them go. I guess I should do that today. I hate to do it. For all I know they may become Thanksgiving dinner.

This is Day ONE of NaNoWriMo. I don't know if I have 6 pages in me today but I think I'll try. Maybe it will help improve my outlook which has been in the toilet lately. Better get cracking on it if I'm going to do it.....
