November is Here! Routines and Schedules Please

October is Gone!  Praise the Lord!  November is Here!  I love that each year, each month, each week, each day, each hour, we’re given a fresh starting point.

October wasn’t the best month around here.  It had it’s share of the blues, wacky times, and busy times.  There was no routine and no schedule.  Everything seemed to suffer- we we’re exhausted, we ate miserably, the house became a mess. . . and this blog really suffered too.

Each year, November brings a new rhythm to our household.  Hunting season comes into full swing.  Gone are the days of preperation and the overnights at the deer lease begin.  With a new place to stay at the deer lease, I plan on being out there more often.  I know I want to enjoy my time out there.  

And I knew with everything that October was and everything I want November to be, I need to get organized.  We bought the month’s groceries last week.  I wanted to get a head start.  I wanted to do some freezer cooking.  So, after shopping for the month’s groceries, this was the scene on my dining room table- before I started cooking each of the recipes you see on the table.  Our freezers are full.

Now, I can settle into the rhythm that November brings- the new rythymn that this year will bring.
