  1. Oh, such a poignant finish ... I love your list approach. It actually gives a real flavour of the month :). Hoping whatever it was that needed the antibiotic is well on its way out by now.

  2. Thanks Alexa. I have admired other's Month in Numbers so I thought I'd like to give it a try - it certainly brings it home what does go on, normally I think, I haven't done much ... oh & yes the antibiotic worked a treat.

  3. This is a fun list! Somehow seems so satisfying! I love that pumpkin pic - we don't really have displays like that around here.

    1. This year I was surprised by all the artful displays at the grocery stores & oh the selection of different types of pumpkins had me swooning.

  4. A super month in numbers post - although a very sad last part. What a packed month you had. I hope your next month holds cheerier times x

    1. Thanks Louise. It's November & we can officially now talk about Christmas (col) so that will start bringing in the cheer.

  5. Glad to hear you're doing better. I can never keep track of all those numbers though I think it's a great way to recap the month! Sorry to hear about the tears!

    1. I think keeping track of numbers is part of my touch of OCD (lol)

  6. Ooh welcome aboard the number train!

    Sorry to read your final number, that sounds hard.

    The massage, all those walks, and the recycling all sounds very much like you're enjoying the shift in seasons ... nothing like a bit of pampering, decluttering, and fresh air to help you prepare for winter!

    And I always enjoy it when other people's numbers make me remember things I forgot to mention [like trick or treaters = zero and Christmas presents bought = about 4 or 5!]

    Your post is safely saved to the Pinterest board along with the others in the MinN community now: https://www.pinterest.com/notesonpaper/my-month-in-numbers/

    Thanks for joining in this time round - you're welcome any time [even if it's once a year ... there's space for all!]

    Julie :-)

    1. Julie thank you for that welcome. I must admit it was cathartic to put things into a number - I felt like I had lived a month of doing rather than slug like ... I now have My Month In Numbers on the radar & in the schedule :) Oh did someone mention Pinterest? I get lost in there, my favourite vice - I would never tell how much time I'm wandering about in there - NEVER!
