October Recap and a Little Preview of November

It’s the end of another month and time to visit my to do list. Here is how I did on the October list:
OCTOBER TO DO LIST
1. Organize important documents and papers. (My dear husband actually did this but I still get to cross it off of my list!)
2. Organize vanity drawers; toss old makeup.
3. Organize office supplies.
4. Clean garage.
5. Take donations to Salvation Army.
6. Organize coat closet.
Not bad, eh?
Now normally, this is where I would post my to do list for the coming month but something big has been brewing around the Right Bank household recently that is going to consume November and probably the rest of the year. It’s all good but I’m feeling a little like this right now:

More on this next week!
Finally, I would like to thank some lovely people for blog awards this month. For the Kreativ Blogger Award, I have to thank Natascha from Mocca and Me, Daniella from Dress, Design & Decor, and Sanity Fair. I also want to thank Lucy from Four Walls and a Roof for the One Lovely Blog Award. It’s really an honor to receive awards from such wonderful bloggers so thank you all!
If you haven’t entered yet, don’t forget the All Modern Giveaway will be ending at midnight tomorrow PST. The winner will be announced on Monday. See you then! Happy Halloween!

Hmmm…I'm guessing you're taking over the design interwebs. But I think you will be a benevolent ruler.

I love this series, every month, every list, every time you get to cross things off. I need to implement this little system in my life! I'm dying of anticiption to hear about what's brewing…and ps, if you're moving back to paris, we can't be blog friends anymore because I'll be too jealous….just kidding…but if you're moving back to paris, I want to see photos of your life in paris each day !!
I'm intrigued. be back next week then. Have a wonderful weekend, Alek!

I’m hooked. Is there a scratchy bootleg advance copy of next week’s From the Right Bank that I could buy to find out what the Something Big might be?

You do really well with your lists, don’t you? I’ve usually got most of the things left to do, which has to be transferred to the next months list, which makes that list twice as long and then I scrunch the list up !!!!
Don’t get too stressed.
Have a scary weekend. XXXX

I wish my to-do list had lots of lines on it! Unfortunately, it just has more added bullet points!
Happy weekend Alek!

I really can't stand suspense! And great job on the organizing. Every month I feel inept
(but happy to see you succeed in being so streamlined)

Sounds like you had a very productive October! I’ve been horrible about making “to do” lists lately…maybe it’s because I’d choke if I saw just how much I really have to do in the new house!

High 5 on all your hard work and organizing! It feels so good doesn’t it! We have been doing some of the same preparing for bébé… still have much to do, mais c’est la vie!
