A November Tradition Begins Again

Goodbye October & Halloween, I miss you desperately already and will until we meet again. Though I'm unhappy to see you November, I welcome you all the same.

What helps to ease my sadness over my favorite time of year coming to an end is that today means it's time once again for 30 Days Of Thanksgiving in November!

What is this 30 Days Of Thanksgiving you ask? Every day this month share what you're thankful for (on your blog or by commenting on my posts). Big & small - appreciate your Blessings! You may surprise yourself with how much you have to be thankful for and you'll find like I did that you'll begin to take time to appreciate your Blessings more often throughout the rest of the year!

Tonight I'm thankful that my Mom feels better today (she has a bad cold), for getting a few things accomplished for organizations I care about (bookclub & American Legion) and for being able to help Hubbs with a couple of things (all despite my arthritis flaring up). I'm also thankful for Hubbs, kitties, family, friends and a beautiful gardening season this year! (And if Hubbs keeps snoring the way he is now, I'll soon be thankful for earplugs).

To follow my 30 Days Of Thanksgiving journey over the years, just click on the label at the bottom of this post.

An Enchanted Garden Party

Welcome to my post! To visit other participants, please head over to the Practical Magic Blog Party 2010 blog. I must say that while I think Practical Magic the movie is adorable, I think the novel is incredible. And that is where I gleaned my inspiration from for these festivities. Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

2009 Halloween Fete! (Saturday October 17, 2009) UPDATED! This shindig is still going strong!

Welcome! I'm so happy to have had so many visitors already! I must apologize for not being ready for you earlier! I also apologize for the wacky font sizes throughout my post. No matter how hard I try, I can't correct them. If music doesn't begin playing shortly after your arrival, scroll down until you see a purple music widget begin to load in the left hand column and wait until you hear the music before scrolling back up here. Happy Halloween Fete 2009! Love and Spookiness to All! ~Jo (Continue scrolling down until the end of the post) Outside, it's a gloomy & cold day here on the NJ coast. Many a restless Spirit wander here on days like this. One can never be too sure if the fog & mist are just as they seem. Inside, it is warm yet equally frightful! Creepy crawlies have gotten into the food & drink, I so hope you don't mind! What with all of the party hopping we're doing, I didn't want you to bust a gut, so I've laid out some Pumpkin Cook...

For more Halloween & Autumn Fun, check out my "Autumn Tuesday" & "Halloween Thursday" posts by clicking on their labels in the left hand column. ~Happy Halloween & Pumpkin Blessings! *Update for those friends wondering, I put this together prior to surgery yesterday to make sure I would be able to post it for today! (Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun...
