One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp is one of my favorite devotionals of all time. I'm an overall positive person but giving thanks? That can be hard. And giving thanks in the hard? Almost impossible. Each November, I make a concentrated effort to give thanks. To look and see the blessings that are always around but I don't always notice. Will you join me? The big, exciting news this month is that TWO new books are coming out in two of my favorite series!!!!! Stellarlune is book 9/10 in the Keeper of the Lost Cities series and book 5 in The Tales of Tarsurella series is being released. That is the second book in that series to be released this year. Definitely giving thanks for that :)
I am attending a conference with a friend this month. It's just a quick, two day event but I'm very excited. I have not been since the first one in 2018 and I learned so much there. Plus, I haven't had a retreat in a while and I know it's going to be good for me. I booked a hotel room for the first time in my life! I also will be attending another library craft night. Doing things like this is still a surprise to me because I used to not like doing crafts. I would just compare my project with what others did and be disappointed. But I'm really pleased that I'm trying and able to be pleased with what I do while still admiring what others make too. That's all that I have planned or scheduled but we saw what happened last month, so I hesitate to say that I will have a light month :) I will be chronicling at least one thing each day that I'm thankful for, a gift that I recognize, and I will be sharing them each Monday on the blog. I hope you will join me and if you want to share your gifts in the comments, I'd love to read them each week! What do you have planned for November?
