November Is Kicking My Butt!

Holy moly - I feel like I haven't scrapped in a month (which is basically true)
Work is a bear.
My personal life is a twisty little knot.
Who else is ready for November to be over???? It can't just be me!
 
Yes!! 'Tis the season...already! I was on a work trip Iast weekend & had a free day on Sunday --I started 14 pages(first scrap-time all month!), but returned to real life (with a bad cold!) and haven't even gotten to finish a single one!
 
I'm sorry it's been a rough month, Amy!! I hope that it improves even before the month is over. {{hugs}}
 
Forgot to add...
It hasn't been awful for me, just a bit stressful. I'm still at my mom's in CA. I was supposed to fly home yesterday, but we don't have a solid offer on my mom's house yet, and I don't want to leave her alone. So, I'm here until we get her moved - probably right before Christmas. I'm really missing my hubby!! I've been here since Oct 1, with a short trip home to look at houses.
 
I'm sorry to hear about your personal life twistiness. :hugs:

My parents were gone for more than half the month which was extra-weird because my grandfather passed away just before they left. Now that they're back, we are finally working on planning his memorial, cleaning out his apartment, etc. I felt like I was on pause with my parents gone, like I had to wait to grieve, and now that they're back, the emotions are coming back, too.

Being on a new medication is not helping, either. It's giving me stomach issues & making my sleep wonky sometimes. I'm only on half the dose, too! I will give it another week and then call the doctor to see if I can be put on something else or if they have recommendations for things I can do/take to combat the stomach issues.

I've had a meeting or an activity for my kids every night since Sunday + plus a crazy day here at work printing out hundreds of forms so I am ready to crash tonight with my pizza & kiddos & Disney+!
 
YES! While I've actually gotten a lot of scrapping done, I'm not sure how- as my november calendar on my phone is just nuts... everyday is totally booked. December looks much better since kids' sports & activities slow down & I am off work for a couple weeks. Plus it's my birthday too- so I don't plan too much! ;) Here's hoping December is better for you too Amy!
 
Yup same sister...same.....
I can totally relate. Hopefully December will be better for my scrapping time. :)
 
:hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

In better news, I'm in bed in jammies drinking tea, watching TV and on page three of the day!
 
*Raises hand and waves it around* Me! This week has been parent/teacher conference week at school, and the write ups for each child take me forever. In addition I have something going on with a student that required me to document a lot of things and write that all up. In the last two weeks I've devoted two full (12+ hour) non-work days and way too many evenings to work. It's just about over--I only have 1 left to do!

I'll have this weekend to relax and scrap. But then we'll be visiting family for Thanksgiving, which is good but means no free time for myself. Between DH's job and the kids' activities, the first 2 weeks of December will be very busy, too. But then things slow down and I have 2 weeks off for winter break. I can't wait!
