What I’m InTo November 2014 Edition
Read and Reading:
The 13th Gift by Joanne Huist Smith, The 20th Christmas (seems I took an early Christmas detour in my reading at the beginning of November!), The Christmas Jar (a request from my youngest daughter)
Currently reading:
Families Where Grace is in Place, and Misplacing God (and finding Him again), War of Words
(I completed _3_ books this month)
TV: Rewatching Dr Who episodes and have started Sherlock with my kids. I started out really not liking Sherlock. But I’ve been drawn in, just like with the doctor.
dream realized
Music: Enjoying the music of James Galway, and seeing the music further inspire my young flutist.
Christmas music in small, worshipful doses. Yes. Especially liking the new music by Shaun Groves, and for the “young nana” a bit of 1 Girl Nation Christmas cheer. But he commercialism Christmas music is completely gagging me right now. The sound of a trumpet singing through the house, yes. The lilt of a flute floating on the air. The depth and range of a growing pianist brings me to song. Music is my love language.
And I am back to listening to Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah. Love is not a victory march.

Things I Loved in November: Quiet rhythm, warm house on cold nights, lavender scented rice cuddlers, a house full on Thanksgiving. Gift card holders out of Altoids tins. Pumpkin pie. and Cuties. YES. Laughter of teens ringing loud and pure.

So all this and more, What I’m Into, November 2014

I need to try Shaun Groves for Christmas music because I get tired of the same ol’, same ol’. Music is one of my love languages too. 🙂
The Altoids Gift Card Holder is so adorable. And looks fairly easy to do. Maybe even I could do that. ha. Thanks for sharing!
Oh I do hope that you check out SG’s Christmas album! His music is among my favorites 🙂
