My reaction? holidays? what holidays? It took me a minute to remember what month we're in.
Anyhoo, my mom, dad, and brother are gone, and my sister, 18 hours away, will spend it with her husband, 2 boys and daughter-in-law. I know she'd welcome me, but I haven't been in a very good place for a few months and I never know if being with them will help or if I'll struggle to appear ok.
Maybe I'll get a big wreath and hang it on my balcony...yeahhh, that's the ticket.

What if the hokey-pokey really is what it's all about?

The wreath sounds like a wonderful idea. I tend to decorate outside more than inside. I guess to give the impression everything is okay. Kind of how we live our lives. Make the outside appearance that everything is okay, but inside we are troubled. Also, I think it's harder to decorate inside when you are alone. But I do enjoy seeing the outside decorations and miss them when they are gone. Everything looks so blah then. Glad we could bring you up to the current month

It is hard to believe it's Nov. when it's so warm outside. I'm still getting tomatoes off the plants outside, it's crazy. But typical for NC weather.
