Usually This Time of Year...

Usually this time of year I am counting down the days to the annual Halloween party.  Usually this time of year I am still thinking of ways to decorate my yard and possibly my job.  Usually this time of year I am thinking about the birthdays coming up in November.  Usually this time of year I am not worried about money because of the way my jobs pay out.  Usually this time of year I am preparing for a field trip or two with my daughters.  Usually this time of year I would be trying to schedule time off from both jobs.  So much for what usually happens this time of year.  There is nothing usual about this year.
