10 at the End – November

Published by

on

I hope yours was a blessed Thanksgiving – however you spent the day🤎🧡. Ours was lovely, taking a break for the annual family meal amid all the work of moving out-of-state. More below and on Thursday.

November Gratitude…

1. A string of goodbye breakfasts, lunches and dinners before leaving New York for Texas. 

2. A good recovery from October foot surgery. Praise God.  

3. No one mentioned prior to surgery that flying should wisely be avoided for six weeks after. So, I cancelled our flights and we drove to the great state. Arrived safely for which I am grateful (more about the road trip on Thursday). 

4. Fun stop/overnight in Nashville. 

5. New house closing went smoothly. 

6. Worldly goods and earthly treasures arrived in TX in tact and on the scheduled day.

7. Seeing foliage colors in TX. The colorful seasonal change was a pleasant surprise!🍁 

8. New things – Purchasing new furniture and home items has been fun. 

9. Old things – Unpacking family items that have been in storage have brought me comfort. 

10. Thanksgiving Day. 

As many of us begin (or finish) the shopping, wrapping, planning, baking, etc., I wish you a happy start to this exciting month of December.

    I’m so glad your move went well. Have you lived outside of NY before?

      No, it’s my first relocation. 30 years later than I expected to move – and I never thought it would be Texas.

    Wow! You had a busy November, MLM! I enjoyed the brief summaries. I’m glad your surgery went well. Have a lovely December. I’ll send you a box of WNY snow to ease your transition.

      😄No thank you! It’s been a windy 40° the last several days with clouds. Apparently very unusual for these parts but still balmy in December for us northerners.

    I believe you got out of NY just in time to avoid some snow. I hope you enjoy your new home, and I’m glad you find out about not flying before you got on that plane. I had no idea!

      Yes, they have plenty of snow and freezing temps already. My eldest daughter said it will be down to 8° this coming weekend🥶.
      The post surgery visit placed strong emphasis upon all the scary “could happen” scenarios that prompted the flight cancellations!
      Thank you, Linda🤍🤍.
