The Full Moon

[serious crayons]

This has been an odd month calendar-wise. I get paid three times this month, instead of the ordinary two.

Me too. I love those months! It happens a couple of times a year.

Those are the best months!   It's like getting an "extra" paycheck.   We had three paychecks in May, and it happens again in October.

We get paid once a month (on the 26th), no matter if the moon is full or not!

My Government pension in NZ$ comes every fortnight on a Tuesday (today). It covers my day to day living. My Private pension in Au$ is paid every quarter on 20th of the month but I chose that. I only use it for travel and any major expense like house renovations or medical.  As the Stock market has been doing well I gave myself a 25% raise from August 20th.    I cannot take it with me when my time comes. It may go to my sister but she is 10 years older than me otherwise it goes to charity.

ohh, any ideas on what charity you might gift?

Not for me. There are five Fridays in October, but for me they're the wrong Fridays.

And the last one is Halloween weekend.   

[Front-Ranger]

Well, I don't receive a paycheck of any kind, so for me, Fridays are just Fridays.

Ah, Halloween!!!

My Australian funds will go to MSF "Medecins Sans Frontieres" or Doctors without borders They are my favourite charity but unfortunately they are not registered in NZ. They tell me they have plans to register. The NZ government refunds one third of all donations made to registered charities. Therefore in NZ I usually choose Oxfam or Save the Children Fund. At the moment my NZ funds and house and car go to Anglican Family Care. I am sure my sister will not want to the bother of having to sell them from 2000 km away and being over 80 does not really need my money. However I am a bit p.....d off with the church at the moment but it costs to visit a solicitor and change a will.
