As what feels like every month this year, October came and went like a breeze, leaving some of us utterly confused.
The recent warm temperatures didn’t help the case. The tri-state area experienced a decently warm November so far with a high of 78 degrees just this Monday.
I debated whether I should write about this year’s GT pumpkin carving competition, but Halloween feels like forever ago. Thanksgiving feels as if it’s not even happening this year, and I’m already sorting out my Christmas tree ornaments — yes, you read that right. I can’t wait past Thanksgiving this year. Needless to say, I have no concept of time these days.

While I’m preparing myself for a quick turnaround between “Jingle Bells” and New Year’s resolutions, I’m excited to be wrapped up in the magic of the holidays and the togetherness this time of year brings.
