November...

This month is going to prove to be challenging.

I have 3 weeks to vacate my current home, and then take up residence in my car.

That means I have 3 weeks to complete NaNoWriMo.
         It's currently 10 in the morning and I've already churned out 1500 words, but now I need to get to finish packing; my stuff is being put into storage next week. I've done most - just CDs and books to go! I'll do kitchen before I move out.

I also have to keep looking for work and applying for jobs in order to keep getting the dole. Found 2 jobs online this morning. I'll write applications this afternoon.

November could be the most Dickensian of my life:

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."

Let's hope I get through it all...
