I wouldn't normally complain about November coming around because it's my birthday month and I like getting presents but since 2010 when I turned shhh {whispers} the big 3 0 they are not so much fun anymore. From this point on there is nothing to look forward too, I'm completely legal, I got my car insurance discount, now I'm just getting old! Of course 30 or as it is now 31 is not near as old as I thought it was back in my teen years. Gosh 31 seemed like ages away and now when you look back it really didn't take that long to get here. But I digress...
November was pretty busy I started running about 29 (better late than never, right?) and in November I ran my first 5K, the Wild Hog Jog, over the Hathaway Bridge and back. Which if you live here in PC, you know the bridge is pretty steep both ways. I personally have never ran the bridge and had a sinus infection on that day. With all that said I still did awesome I came in 41 of 53, and 1st in my age group of 30-34 with a time of 38.11 seconds, of course there were only 3 people in my age group including me but I was 1st!
This year it seemed like the Black Friday deals were starting before Thanksgiving and lasting well after, which was good for me! I was currently sewing on a 1943 Domestic Series 153 and thought since I liked sewing maybe I'd buy a newer machine. Amazon just happened to have a great deal for me, a Brother cs6000i with 60 programmable stitches, hard cover, all kinds off foots, extension table etc for a great price of $154.00. That was too hard to pass up so I got one in the end of November. Let me tell you that thing is awesome it makes sewing so easy, you literaly have to push a button to start and stop it, no more foot peddle!

I went out to Amazon.com to grab a picture for y'all and they still have the machine for $159.00. It really was great deal!
Bye Y'all!
