Here is the October picture.  It was taken at about 8 in the morning.  You can see the leaves are going from the trees.  I should have added the picture I took of a tree full of orange leaves, I'll try and remember for next time.

I have done some charity knitting and I'll put the picture of that for next time.  I finished my nephew's scarf and started on my niece's fingerless mitts.  The scarf curls terribly but after I wash it I will block it and see if that fixes it.  If it's still curly it will just have to be that way but at least I'll make an attempt.  I haven't found any lice in a few days so when it's been a week I'll start on the little fox.  I'm afraid to say I haven't seen lice in case I see some.  Hopefully I have gotten out of the funk I was in and be able to make more things.

I finished the kdrama Plus 9 Boys.  It was cute drama.  In Korea everyone ages one year up all at the same time on Chinese New Year.  This is how it is possible for all the boys to have their age end in 9 for a whole year at the same time.  The boys in question are 9,19. 29, and 39.  The 9, 19, and 29 year olds are brothers and the 39 year old is their uncle. They all live together with their mom/sister since the dad/brother-in-law died eight years ago.  The ten year age gap is explained by the mom and dad going on a trip every ten years for their anniversary.  The 9 year old got very popular when he was little for being in a movie but now that he is a little older he is not as cute and is getting passed over for parts.  It doesn't help that he is a terrible actor and very arrogant about his past popularity.  The 19 year old is very full of himself.  He thinks he's all that and loves to post selfies of himself with cheesy little thoughts. He's good at judo but in an important match he accidentally poops on himself and loses.  He kind of give up on judo for a bit and becomes obsessed with a girl he keeps seeing and thinks it's destiny.  She is not exactly what she seems so that causes conflict as well.  The 29 year old has a mad crush for a co-worker but he's afraid to say anything and risk losing the friendship. As an added wrinkle he did something in their past that really hurt her so he has to be careful.  The 39 year old uncle is a TV producer who gets bumped from a music show to a kids show because of a mistake.  He is getting hounded to get married but his heart was broken ten years ago and he can't get over it.  The show goes through with the year with them and it has a happy ending though it felt a tiny bit rushed. I would recommend it.  

The other kdramas I have stated are Cantabile Tomorrow and Modern Farmer.  Cantabile Tomorrow is based on the manga/anime Nodame Cantabile.  There is an almost OCD pianist that really wants to be a conductor.  He meets a girl who is sloppy and a bit crazy.  I'm sure they will fall in love but right now it only has two episodes out right now.  It's really funny to me and not in the over the top way.  Modern Farmer is about a washed up rock band who move to the country to grow cabbage to make money to make a new album.  It's funny too but in a over the top crazy style.

I think that's it.  I'm sure I'll think of something I missed. Hopefully everything will go well this week,  I'll see you next time.
