Good Things: November

Well, it is unbelievably that time of the month again -- time to look back at November and find things to be thankful for!  There are quite a few of them!

1- started listening to Christmas music :-)
2- phone date w/ Christine!
3- dinner w/ Stephanie at Chipotle
4- met w/ the NC State Elementary Ed person... and got so excited to go back to school
5- The Office/Autumn-y party
6- dinner w/ Laurie... man, I love that girl!
7- had a quiet day.  I put together my bookcase and then went to the Daniel Renstorm concert
8- went on a walk w/ Laura and then had Stromboli for dinner
9- one heck of a productive day at work!
10- My Birthday!   I felt so loved!
11- Mellow Mushroom for dinner.  That is all you need to know!
12- another productive, but tiring day.  Realized I have one amazing friend in Laura
13- to the Niemans for dinner -- gave me the Casting Crowns' Christmas CD. 
14- went to my first Corn Maize and then to iHop for dinner
15- had some quality me time; organized my iTunes library which always makes me feel good (yes, I am sad and I know it)
16- bought my Joshua Scrapbook for $4!!!
17- decided to do something I swore I wouldn't... I am putting my cat on kitty kat prozac.  Yes, again I know I am sad.
18- decided to get some time to myself.  Ordered Papa John's for dinner!
19- finished organizing my iPod now that my home computer is back up and running!
20- went to see the midnight showing of New Moon. I can't believe I just admitted that.
21- Jimmy John's.  Man, I miss that place.
22- OMGosh, our cottage is real!  I'll post pictures soon!
23- first day of painting w/ my mom... didn't know I could be that sore!
24- had a Milky Way for dessert... yum!
25- met up w/ one Christine VanSweden while waiting for my dad at the G-Rap airport
26- Thanksgiving and my Dad's birthday.  The food was amazing... turkey... stuffing... mashed potatoes... rolls.
27- Onion Rings w/ dinner made a long day of painting all worth while.
28- done painting the cottage!  (for now!)
29- made it home... I missed that apartment.
30- still loving My Evening Walk Bible Study.  Beth Moore's Esther study rocks... and is so applicable right now.  As well... I love my roommates.  It felt good to be near them, with them, to laugh with them.

November flew by.  I am sure December will, too.  Can't believe we are 24 days away from Christmas and 30 days away from a new year.  How does time fly so quickly?
