November

My life has been upended since February.

I wanted to do National Novel Writing Month, but I just cannot fathom that kind of brain power and discipline in the state I am in. Not now, not yet.

So instead I will just try to write something here every day this month and see what happens.

This time of year is hard, but exquisitely beautiful. North Carolina has its faults but the weather is not one of them. Clear light and blue skies. I still struggle with depression every year about now. I have spent all summer outside, but now I just want to hibernate. I am doing ok with it now, but I need more sleep and vitamins to hold up.

We are going to Indianapolis for a conference this week. It isn't warm there. I need to pull out my down coat that makes me look like a marshmallow. I guess holloween will be a bit late... speaking of which, peanut M&Ms are delicious. And we had no trick or treaters this year so it is all mine.

Yeah healthy eating. About that.
