November

I have noticed that many of my Facebook friends are sharing daily what they are grateful for.  It is after all November--Thanksgiving month.  I find that I am grateful for so many things; but I don't necessarily share my thoughts.   For me November is fall cleaning month, Christmas baking and decorating month as well as winter preparation month!  This year winter arrived in October and certainly continues into November.   So I am considering skipping November all together and simply hibernating.    Which means my Christmas tree may very well be the lighted palm tree I didn't get to use in the beer garden this summer.  (a whole new holiday experience).
