November - it's one of my favorite months of the year. Actually, any of the ber months are. This November is different in that I chose to decorate for Christmas early. Christmas just makes me happy, and I love to put up my lights, or really, any decoration. I'm just excited about this holiday season. It's special for a couple of reasons. My family survived a really horrible summer, so this season is comforting for us. We can fully celebrate what we got through and be thankful to God for keeping us up above all of those many struggles.
My health is fine right now. It could be better, though. As for losing weight, I haven't done the best. It's been incredibly difficult to exercise when I don't feel well. I sometimes don't have the energy for it. I know that you can lose weight without exercising, but I also want to have better stamina. To combat this, I've recently started a new exercise where I use a step that I found on Amazon. It's easy in that I can just pull the step out and do 15 minutes of stepping on and off of it. I wind up sweating quite a bit with the step. I don't know if I'll be successful during the holidays with my eating, but I'm going to try to improve with this.
Today, I reached 15,000 words on the first draft of my book - Wandering With Grace. I'm so happy that it's coming along. I should have 60,000 words finished before Christmas (this is the first draft). I didn't mention it in my earlier posts, but I have a subtitle for this book. It's called A Journey of Faith. I'm also going to create the book cover myself like I did with my other book, Butterfly Wings. The book I'm writing right now will have some of my favorite photos in it. There will even be a "photo gallery." I can't wait to share it all with you so that I can take you on God's journey with me. (should be self-published next year.)
For Christmas, it's going to be quiet for the family - which will be nice. The only big thing I have planned is to have a post each day on my blog for advent. That's right. There will be a blog post up each day for December until Christmas Day. For fun, I'll also have two separate giveaways to enter during December, so watch out for both of them. But I'll probably take a short break after Christmas day, however. Then, be back to blogging on the 31st. I'll have a post up for New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. Those are my plans, anyways. 💓
