November I'm glad your back. I've missed you!

first of all I can't sleep. i kind of hate when that happens. my mind tonight is going in a billion directions. i have so many things to do and say. so, i came to the conclusion that it really is okay that i can't sleep tonight. i'm a stay at home mom and i can go back to bed after drop off if i want to and it'd be okay. especially since i never do. but for future reference kell do.not.take.midol.late.in.the.afternoon.
(sometimes i talk to myself who cares) did you know midol has caffine in it? me either. i never paid attention.

also i have been meaning to do a 365 days of his word link up. i am so sorry that i haven't yet. i will be sending out an email with the date soon. if your interested in joining or would like to read what it's all about you can here. if you'd like to see who is currently participating you can here.

the boys football season will be over in a couple of weeks, which i am a little sad about because i love me some football. but it's also good because we'll get our evenings back.

have i mentioned that i live in my car? i have only had my car for 7 months and i already have 10,912 miles on it.
lawd have mercy!
ooh and it's a lease. woops!

with that all said. NOVEMBER I AM GLAD YOUR BACK! i have missed you so much. i am thankful that the weather has finally started to cool down, and that the leaves are beginning to change color. the purple leaves are my favorite but, the red ones are nice too. hot chocolate tastes magical on crisp fall evening. i look forward to drinking lots.

isn't november the perfect month to precede december with all of it's thankfulness. because you know i sure am thankful that god gave us his only son to save us from our sins. i am in love with that fact.
but seriously who could have better planned THANKSGIVING to fall a month before CHRISTmas than GOD? it's mind blowing right! or not God's AWE-MAZING!

doesn't november get you in the CHRISTmas spirit? it does me.

and for the record i bust out my CHRISTmas tunes every single year on NOVEMBER 1st!!! i told my boys that we'd be listening to CHRISTmas music for at least the next 70 days. to which their response was YES!!!

i am joining in on Rachel's be thankful on paper this season. i am really excited about it. i already have the list of peeps i'm going to write. i seriously could write 100 people a day all month long, and still not write everyone i am thankful for. i truly feel blessed by all the people in my life including each of you bloggy friends.

this NOVEMBER...carpe diem...seize the day

~i love the movie dead poets society don't you~

"real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present."

- Albert Camus

-he's a little weird, but i love this quote-

And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.

Colossians 3:15
