I’m posting the puzzle-contest early because tomorrow’s a special day for our family.
It’s the first day of November! Can you believe it’s already here? I can’t. This year flew by. I can’t say I’m sorry 2024 is drawing to a close. I’m ready for what’s next. I also look forward to the holiday season. I have some of my Christmas list covered already, but I have to pull out everything I have stuffed in closets to see what’s left to acquire. My daughter has a shelf in the pantry already filling up with things for the Thanksgiving meal. We decorate for Christmas early because my dd loves-loves-loves decorating and likes to see it for longer than a month, so she’s been gathering new things to add—another tree, good Lord! I love to watch her and the girls with boxes filling the living room as they hang ornaments and set up little houses with lights. It’s nuts how much “stuff” we have.
So, I’m happy it’s November. There’s so much to look forward to—Thanksgiving, the start of Advent, Krampus Day, St. Nicklaus Day (we love setting out our shoes!), Christmas, New Years! Our family loves any excuse for a celebration. This season is our favorite!

The best thing about the holidays is spending time with those you love, with fantastic food, laughter and love, there is nothing better. The sights of decorated houses with all the color, the sounds of the carols being sung, the smells of a fresh evergreen, hot apple cider and fresh baked treats. Celebrating the reason during this time of year makes everything else that leads up to it all worthwhile.

I am looking forward to spending time with my family. I am going to try making lots of little appetizers so that at least one meal is more laid back. I think it will be fun to make many small serving items.

I’m looking forward to trying to be creative, and move around more after surgery on Veterans Day.

I’ll have a quiet holiday season, but look forward to a family vacation in March. Glad your scans are looking good.

Only doing one craft show this year compared to the 3 or 4 we usually do. But that’s what happens when two of us have been doing the cancer battle in the last several months. Just not getting the stuff made like normal. Hopefully it will all get better soon.
And now that we live in the mountains full time, hopefully we will have a white Christmas.
