Thanksgiving and other thoughts

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. We went to D's parents house and spent the holiday with her family and some mutual friends. The food was fabulous (D and I made rolls) and the company was even better. I will post pictures as soon as I find my camera cord (the thing really should have a GPS system attached).

I have been working on my NaNo project, but I am afraid that I'm just not gonna make the deadline. Too much has got in the way this month and my word count is just too far behind to catch up. 35k in 2 days is just too much to accomplish, even if I did nothing else. I'm not too discouraged; there's always next year to meet the goal of 50k in a month. I've got all year to prepare.

Christmas preparations are underway. D and I are getting our photographs taken by the wonderful and beautiful Jaimee of Cyr Photography on Sunday, and this will make up a large portion of our Christmas gifts to both of our families. We'll bring the Christmas decorations home tomorrow and start decorating our little apartment and wrapping our other gifts.

I love the Christmas season. Not the weather, mind you, but everything else. The meaning of the season, the festive spirit, the music, and decorations. It's all so wonderful.

I'm so glad that it's finally here!
