~ Publish Cloaked. This is kind of a gimme, but hey, I like a to-do list to have a few gimmes. Checking them off makes me feel like I'm doing well.
~ Read House of Living Stones by Katie Schuermann
~ Read 5 other books from my TBR shelves
~ Read 3 books from the library
~ Watch 5 movies from my TBW shelves
~ Go see Thor: Ragnarok
~ Make "Baked Oatmeal Bars" from this recipe.
~ Finish the skirts and cape I'm sewing for my kids
~ Finish my Newt Scamander scarf (after all, by the end of November, I probably will want to wear it)
~ Repair/update the "mouse house," which is this playhouse I made for the kids out of an old sheet that I cut and sewed to fit over a card table. It's got a bunch of rips, and they're all 3 years older than they were when I made it, so I think it's time to not only fix the rips, but maybe make it a little "cooler" at the same time.
That's all for this season! Do you have anythings you're looking forward to doing this autumn, or are hoping to tick off your to-do list?
Finish first draft of current novel (probably will, within a week or so).
ReplyDeleteThrow a Halloween Tea.
Probably see Thor. Depends on how into it I am that weekend and how far I want to drive just to see Cate. ;)
Charity, oooh! Approaching the finish line on a draft -- how thrilling!
DeleteA Halloween Tea sounds cool.
Wait, there are people in Ragnarok besides Chris Hemsworth??? ;-)
Yeah. It's exciting to get close to the end -- that enthusiasm usually keeps me going for the final push. Would be helpful to have an idea of how to resolve a plot thread, though. ;)
DeleteYes. I hear Hiddleston is also in it. ;)
Charity, I'm that way too. I can drum up barrels of enthusiasm for beginning a story and ending it. The middle, though, can be rough.
DeleteOh, wow. Two more people than Hemsworth? This movie's getting crowded! :-o
(Seriously, though, I am loving the thought of Thor and Hulk teaming up because they amuse me together.)
What a good autumn to-do list! I love that you're making a Newt Scamander scarf - makes me want to take up knitting!
ReplyDeleteHmm...what would be on my to-do list? I recently moved to a new city for college, so I want to spend more of my time exploring it (and also passing my classes, hehe). I'd love to get a few more TBR/TBW things off my shelves - although I think I add more to it the longer time goes on! ;-)
Thanks, Claire! I'm very slow at knitting, but it's fun anyway.
DeleteCollege in a new city! I remember those days. I hope you're making new friends and learning lots!
I keep adding more to my TBW/TBR shelves, and it's getting ridiculous. I need to get them under control.
I see much reading in your future. :)
ReplyDeleteI'll probably be back one of these days with a monstrous to-do list. Until then... ignorance is bliss. :)
Rebekah, indeed! Much reading and movie-watching.
DeleteHaha, sometimes to-do lists can be helpful, and sometimes they make me tired just looking at them, so I get that.
Wow! That's an awesome list. I'm going to be travelling for a few days, driving through France and Spain. Then I have a shed-load of work to do on my fifth novel, which has reached Suckage Point. (The point at which I feel everything about it sucks - I go through this with all my books.) I'd like to get it finished by the end of November or, at least to my editor. I also have a self-portrait I meant to finish this summer, but didn't. Good luck with yours.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rosie! Wow, traveling through France and Spain sounds amazing :-o
DeleteYeah, I hit that point with every book and story. The whole thing Sucketh Mightily, and I just have to remind myself it's happened before and I can move through it. Hope you can fight through it swiftly!
Good luck! You can do it!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, MC! I've already checked one thing off (I finished reading House of Living Stones -- review coming this weekend), so I'm off to a good start.
