Whoa! November First?

 

My how time flies, as they say!  Here it is the first of November and time to share our monthly calendars with the other "calendar girls" at Kathryn Wheel's HERE!

These are my finished October pages.  Note I did try to conform, a little, I made circles to represent the days for the first part of the month.

IMG_3380 But, for the last half of the month.....I was back to writing in lines!  Sigh!

IMG_3381 I've been helping to teach a class, sold some things at our show at the bakery, accomplished a lot of yard work early in the month and made some time for art!  It was a good month.

On to November.........with turkey day and Christmas just around the corner, and I've signed up for Diana Trout's bookmaking class that starts this Friday....I have a lot to look forward to.

IMG_3383 In my hast to write this blog before the ghost and goblins start arriving at my door, I notice that I have not identified these pages as November....but that's what they will be.

I'll do it tomorrow, I promise!

IMG_3386These are a couple of my favorite pages in my journal.  On this page, I think I see some more circles in my future.

Thanks for stopping by and for sharing you calendar, if you did.

The calendar journal is due. yikes! I like your November start. I thought about Diana's class but I need to do Joanne's first. This sure has been a busy year!

Really pretty pages, Jan! I am wondering (and you have probably said this, but I missed it), what you use to do your writing with...just a thin line Sharpie, or something else???
I want to start a gardening journal.
Thanks. xoxo- Julie
