The month of November. #BestAndWorst
00:00November didn't start off too great. My brain condition (IIH) flared up which resulted in headaches and just not feeling too great. One of the symptoms of IIH is numbness and tingling, my arms and legs went very numb for a while but as the month went on, I have got a bit better. Thankfully. I've also felt rather anxious on and off but enough of that now, onto the good stuff!
During November I went to Ellie's parents evening, I enjoy parents evening and hearing about her progress and looking at all her lovely work. She's getting on very, very well at school. I am super proud of her.
Charlie really knuckled down and has settled into year 7 now. He's also got use to the homework, he still struggles sometimes but overall, he's much more settled. It helps having his big brother there too!
Harry's also getting on well and has been enjoying lots of sports and what not. I'm really proud of them both!
I'm not really sure we actually got very much of our bucket list ticked off this month but that's ok! I'm sure I'll do better in December.
The last weekend of November. Ellie and I were both poorly. It's to be expected this time of year though. Still sucks though. Thankfully, the boys haven't caught it. Touch wood.
We've had some lovely things to review, lots of lovely festive arts and crafts items and we love the BB-8 and Thunderbird inflatable remote controls, they're super fun!
Other things I've loved this month include, The Walking Dead, reading (You can read my monthly reading wrap up here) I think my favourite book last month was Behind Closed Doors by B.A Paris. I've also started working out towards the end of the month! In hope to loose a few pounds before Christmas - Wish me luck!
I've also been organising for Christmas and planning. I still have A LOT of presents to buy but I am getting there slowly. We have lots of exciting things coming up in December. Ellie has a nativity play (although I don't think she's got any lines to say or anything) and a school carol service, school trips and Christmas jumper days. I think the boys have there school Christmas activities, too! And of course Christmas! We are super excited! I can't wait to put the tree up, hehe.
How was November for you?

I am glad to hear Charlie has settled bless him, I think year 7 is a bit of a culture shock and a huge change from year 6!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better now. November was a very busy month for me.
ReplyDeleteIt is good to see you have had a busy month with lots of good things going on. #picknmix
ReplyDeleteAhh we were all poorly in November too, it's a bad time of year for germs. The rest of your month sounds fab though! #PoCoLo
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better now and the boys have still escaped the winter germs. I've had a cold for the last three weeks, so you have my full sympathy. Great to hear how well the kids are doing at school and have a fab time watching the Nativity #bestandworst x
ReplyDeleteSounds like over all you had a decent November. Glad you are feeling better now. My husband and I were poorly the last week of November too but miraculously the kids managed not to catch it.

I'm glad he's settled in, year 7 is such a hard year for them as there is a lot of adjustment needed. My eldest is in year 8 now, which seems crazy to me! I hope you all have a fantastic December and Christmas.

A busy month! Hopefully all of the sickness bugs are behind you and you can really December! November was super busy for us as we moved house and now we're on the festive countdown and getting ready for our first holiday since B was born x
ReplyDeleteSounds busy, hope you're all on the mend and will be able to enjoy all the Christmas planning you've been up to. It's definitely starting to feel Christmassy isn't it? Thanks for sharing with #PoCoLo x

ReplyDeleteI was considering one of the inflatable BB-8s as a Christmas pressie for my 6 year old. Glad to hear you are all having fun with it. #KCACOLS
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better. November passed by so quickly that I even didn't understand it's already time to start decorating for Christmas
ReplyDeleteHope you're all feeling better and a bit more on top of Christmas. It's such a hectic month isn't it, I haven't even begun to start shopping. x
