November is the turning point of the season that brings us winter, even though winter really starts at the Winter Solstice in December. We already have a goodly amount of snow in Alberta, in different places.
November signals a time of slowing down, of gatherings like Fall Suppers and Thanksgiving in the United States. It is when many summer and fall activities shut down.
November is a time of remembering…of wars fought, of loved ones who left this year, of warm summer days on the deck or beach with family and friends.
November is a time for being grateful that the year has been good. Or, in some cases, it has been challenging and we have learned from the challenges.
November is when most of us start Christmas shopping to get the presents to send away, and to prepare for Christmas Day which is now 55 days away.
When we hit November, we comment on how fast the year has passed and wonder what happened to make everything seem to move so quickly.
Many blessings,
Judy

Thanks for reading this blog post. Sharing is good if it is kind and either has questions or tells about an experience. (Rudeness and profanity are excluded.)
