All is gray today! No sun, just clouds! Even the colors in the trees are almost gone! It is definitely November. Thoughts are starting to turn to Florida where it is sunny and warm! I’m wishing I was there as the cold seeps through my skin. Ah well, soon enough.
Tonight is our secret sister reveal. How fun! I have no idea who mine is and I can’t wait to find out. It’s fun to reveal ourselves with a small gift. It starts at 6:30 p.m. and I hope I can stay awake! I get so tired now at night, especially with the time change. It feels so much later than it really is. I put my fall nails on this morning and so far they are staying on. I’ve learned a few tricks to keeping them on. Taking them off without ruining your nails is another matter. I bought some solution that is supposed to help. I hope it works!
Today I went to Neighborhood Sip where Riley works and she made me a coffee with pumpkin cold foam. It was so good! It was just enough to make it a little sweeter but not too sweet! She always knows just what I would like. I stayed for a while and chatted with her about going back to school which she plans to do in December. All in all, a pleasant way to spend some time! I love the taste of pumpkin this time of year!
After yesterday’s beauty, today is kind of a downer. It’s cloudy, raining, and windy. All the great things that make November in Michigan. The trees are still pretty but somehow it is harder to enjoy them sitting inside. I just ordered Pure Flix movie station for $4.99 month for seniors. Maybe I will watch some Christmas movies to get in the mood for that holiday coming up in the not so distant future.
The elections are over and that’s a good thing, even though the democrats won the majority of votes. In Bible study it was mentioned that God is in control and we are not to be worried or fearful. It’s hard though when Michigan elected a Muslim senator. I trust God that He knows the future and will be with us no matter what happens.
The last of the flowers are being pulled today! It is 75 degrees outside and it is going to rain and get cooler so today is a good day to say goodbye. It is so sad especially the Mandevillas which are still blooming beautifully. I wonder what we will plant next year. Mandevillas for sure! We get them at Costco the first of May when we get home from Florida.
This time change makes the day seem so confusing. And to make it worse I was awake during the night feeling sick to my stomach. After 2:00 a.m. I wasn’t sure what time it was! Until we get our clocks moved back, I will stay confused. I’m still not feeling good so I am outside sitting in the sun, but the clouds are moving in. It is so beautiful in our yard right now. I wish it would stay like this! Meanwhile I’ve got to get the clocks changed so I know what time it is! I wish we didn’t have to go through time changes! Why can’t they just leave it now?! It’s November now and we have Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up sooner than we would like. But for right now, I’m enjoying the warmer weather!
