So today is my last day of NaBloPoMo. Somehow I have managed to make myself post each and every day in November. I am so glad that I signed up for this, and I will definitely do it again next year. A lot has come about because of this which makes it mean even more to me.
As for my observations, well they have nothing to do with NaBloPoMo.
I've noticed in my daily life that:
1. People treat me differently if I have my son with me, then when I am alone. This includes grocery shopping, visiting friends and family, travelling, etc.
2. People seem to get quite unkind and sometimes mean during this season. This is mainly on the roads and in the stores.
3. My cat definitely thinks he is a dog. He begs for treats and he will make noises at times that sound like a bark/growl.
4. My son positively changes my life each and every day.
5. I am content with my dietary choices, and feel good about everything I put in my body. With the exception of those days when I eat junk food. But, I refuse to feel bad about the chocolate.
6. I am not the same person I used to be. I think most people can say the same thing. I still am not sure who I am, but that's OK.
And with that, I will say it was a very good November.

November
Happy November!
Things grow on a bit of a different schedule here, and I am very excited about the new seeds we have sprouting. While picking up a new metal rake, my son spotted these Dixie cup size containers. They are Jiffy plants, because they grow in a "jiffy" I guess. He picked up two containers of sunflower seeds. After watering and planting the seeds, Voila!
We have starfruit seeds germinating at the moment in some old yogurt containers. I'm not sure how those will work out, but my son anxiously checks on them every morning.
There is a new Plumeria tree in the backyard garden. The flowers smell very much like jasmine. It makes me happy every time we are out back.
After reading about NaBloPoMo on FiddleMama's blog, I decided to join. I'm pretty excited about challenging myself in that way. We lead fairly simple lives here, and are happy that way. So, it'll be interesting to see if I can write every day for the entire month!
