November

Here we are, another month gone by. 
As I'm a manager at a craft store , I find my days fly by. Since the beginning of October we have been so busy! My health has been iffy as I've been battling a cold and I'm hobbling as my left foot has a heal spur.
Can't wait for our American Thanksgiving, as I get to see family, eat someone else's cooking and be a bad guest and fall asleep on the couch. And I get paid for all of that also!

Over on The Craft Barn Challenge  it is now November for the Twelve Month Challenge.  The verse is:

Dull November brings the blast
Then the leaves go whirling past

There are no constraints. I miss those. It made it more interesting and sometimes gave me a place to start with a poem that seems to describe pretty much the same thing over and over again.


I painted this with acrylic paints. I used cotton swaps to make the stones on the cliff as well as the leaves. The lantern and the trees are stamps.

One more month to go! See you in December!
