• Completed the washing and ironing and have enough clothes to last until the end of November?
• Talked to the dog about the fact that he/she can only use the garden for 30 days?
• Sent your kids to your in-laws?
• Set your alarm to get up an hour earlier each day?
• Told your boss not to expect too much this month?

• Cancelled any commitments you had?
• Told your friends you'll see them in December?
• Stocked up on beautiful new notebooks?
• Written down the emergency number of another author - just in case?
