What Happened to November?

Did anyone notice what happened to November?  Seems just yesterday I was wandering around my apartment changing all the calendars and now it’s time to do it again however this time they will be on their last pages.  One way or another it feels like November was lost in a haze of cloud, fog, and gloom.  Sounds like I was as well; doesn’t it?

 

The above was written Saturday Morning and at that time I had thoughts for its continuance that have since scattered to the wind—or got lost in a snow drift—somehow I lost steam.  Did I mention snow drifts?  Overnight the weatherman quit fooling around and decided to give us a full blast of winter.  There were at least 4 inches of drifted snow on the ground when I looked out this morning.  Well, at least it brightens up the joint somewhat.  I did, however, decide there weren’t any groceries I needed so badly that a trip on those unplowed roads was necessary.  Believe I’ll let the demotion derby that is attendant upon the first major snow-fall work itself out before I get on the road.  Hot mulled cider anyone?
