Nov from Mary to Connie - more holiday musing






 This looks like Sharpie Creative markers because the greens look more opaque - rather than alcohol. My note to self on this one is to remember to do the thing where you switch up the colors on each letter. It's time consuming - but I think it is one of those fool-proof ways to do something fun that is pretty forgiving on how skillful the actual lettering is. I'm stunned that Mary fit connie's full name into that space.

Was my musing yesterday alarming or concerning? Or is that how I always sound? Those are rhetorical questions. I'm fine. It's Nov-Dec. Remember when I wrote about how my daughter's Nov 27th birthday was the annual kick-off of the holiday season which was a bit *too much* for my minimalistic nature?

Well, since my daughter has had 2 kids and has been experiencing all the things that used to be *too much* for me (technically, all the holidays were too much for me) she has been sharing with me that she now has a better understanding as to why I tended to be frazzled during the holidays. 

Sadly, she ended up with one kid who has a birthday on Nov 9th, so Nov becomes a *too much* month with her birthday and thanksgiving and then the other kid has a Dec 17th birthday. At least she still has me to offer suggestions. 

Maybe I can work this into a series. A silly series to be sure.
