November

ABC Wednesday has reached the letter N and my word is NOVEMBER.

In the ancient Roman calendar November was the ninth month - the name in Latin is  NOVEM meaning nine.

After other months were added NOVEMBER  kept the name.  NOVEMBER is autumn in the Northern Hemisphere and spring in the Southern Hemisphere, so we are experiencing come gorgeous colors here. 

November is the host for many National Causes and Days. 

NOVEMBER IS NATIONAL BLOG POSTING MONTH--I never realized we bloggers have our own month!!!     NABLOPMO - check it out.


Some others of interest are:

National Diabetes Awareness Month
National Epilepsy Month
National Alzheimers Disease Awareness Month
National Hospice Month


We can't forget Thanksgiving on the 4th Thursday of November for the United States and Puerto Rico.

Not listed above but still important to us--we have FIVE birthdays in November.  We usually have one big party!!
