There is no turning back to avoid winter. What can we do to make November cheerier? Crafts! There are craft fairs in November that focus on the holidays. An atmosphere of community may be good for the spirit. Consider get out and about to your local craft fairs.
It is also a good time for thinking of a craft to do at home. Working with your hands can be very relaxing.

I just heard of a craft fair in November here in town. All items are handmade. I really want to go, sounds like a pleasant time. Your suggestion of plaid pajamas is a good one. I have to get some! : )

Carol,
DeleteDaily walking is something I hope to start.
There's no safe walking paths close by other than the sidewalks here.
Love that header photo! A cozy by the fire time is always part of November for me.
