It's November and I'm not ready for snow!
October was certainly a fun filled month. Fall craft fairs, my son's birthday party and of course, Halloween festivities. I was happy when it was all happening, but glad when it finally came to an end. I had a non-stop week up through Halloween night, so when November 1st hit, I gave a huge sigh of relief.
November seems to be the "in-between" month, where there isn't as much activity for our family and we just get ready for Thanksgiving. It's a time for us to slow down a bit before the madness of December celebrations begin. It's a time for me to reflect on life a bit, give thanks and appreciate my blessings.
Living in New England is wonderful. We get to experience seasonal changes and relish in old traditions. However, no matter how much I look forward to this time of year, I do NOT look forward to the New England weather!!!! Though my children came screaming and jumping for joy this morning for the little snow we had on the ground this morning, I can say my heart fell and first thing I did was see if the kids had school! To my dismay, they do. *SIGH*
So, as I begin my Monday morning dragging the kids out in this cold, wet, slippery weather, I will remind myself that I have a roof over my head, heat in my house and that this is all part of living in CT. Who knows, tomorrow could be sunny and warm! Someone once told me years ago that if you don't like what you see outside today, wait, it will change tomorrow. That's something I can look forward to, at least!
