A Sentence A Day: October 2021

November 2, 2021 By Janetti Spaghetti

In October I worked hard; but I played hard too.

My business is thriving! September was my biggest month ever and October wasn’t far behind. I’m in the process of recruiting a new assistant to grow my virtual agency, doing interviews this week. Can’t happen soon enough as far as I’m concerned, I’m swamped with work and could really do with the extra help as you will see …

1 October – Spent our Friday night relaxing on the deck and watching a storm pass through – much better than TV!

2 October – It might be Saturday but with a couple of deadlines looming I put in a couple of hours’ at my desk, while the husbear pruned some trees out the back.

3 October – Mr 27 and his GF hosted a BBQ so the two families could meet … must be getting serious hey?!

4 October – I decided toΒ  “click and collect” our groceries to make things easy on myself (have I mentioned work is absolutely nuts at the moment). HA! I drove around the carpark for ages, couldn’t find where to go; eventually I rang the store and got directions. When my groceries were eventually brought out to me I was told I had to load them myself … what the??! That’s not what the sign says!

5 October – Morning walk.

6 October –

7 October – I presented at a networking event on the other side of town, but made a point of getting there early so I could have a little something special beforehand – this amazing rocky road cheesecake! Nom nom nom.

8 October – Another visit to the chiropractor for my sore neck and shoulders.

9 October – The family came along to support me at the Redlands Coast Business Excellence Awards, as my business was a finalist in two categories! It didn’t win, but pretty proud to be one of only 3 finalists in each category πŸ™‚ . Plus, an excuse to wear my gorgeous mother-of-the-bride dress again!

20 October – Another networking meeting, this time with the Redlands Coast Chamber of Commerce and with former star footballer Shane Webcke as the guest speaker. I’m not into footy (or sports in general) but really enjoyed his presentation.

29 October – Worked late into the night, so much work to get done before the end of the month …

30 October – A big day of house cleaning – seriously need to think about getting a cleaner in regularly instead of wasting my precious weekends. Oh my aching arms!
