I am grateful that I lived another month in 2021, living my life normally, without any mask mandatory, lockdown, and vaccine mandatory crap. I enjoyed my usual outdoor meetups, crowded mall window-shopping during Black Friday without wearing the mask BS, and occasional cinema excursions and gym workouts. (I need to be more consistent with my gym workouts, even if I have errands on that day). I also went to a local garage for my VW Beetle’s smog check, which took only ten minutes, shorter than usual. I was actually surprised to note that the garage was very quiet, almost like a ghost town.

I continue to live my life normally, seeking entertainment venues, events, and excursions.

While getting my mail at the mailboxes area, I noticed a flyer for a community “coffee and doughnuts” party at the pool area on Saturday, November 27th. I wonder who showed up for the party because I missed it, although I am glad I missed it because I don’t need to eat a doughnut. I might have been tempted to eat one, just to be social with the group there. I wonder what I was doing on Saturday anyway. I remember on Sunday, I had gone to a yoga meetup, before going on two errands.

Today, I plan to attend another walking meetup at UC Irvine, and I noticed over 20 people have signed up. More and more people are going out more to enjoy their life, whether outdoor meetups, crowded Black Friday events, and/or enjoying their own social meetups at restaurants, movies, and other local events. November 2021 appears to be a positive month, displaying progress, coming together, and socializing at various local venues, as people hope to have a fun and peaceful holiday during November, December, and New Year 2022, filled with parties, togetherness, and family reunions. Even the malls are promoting holiday parties with metallic shimmer and shiny clothes and accessories in gold, silver, bronze, and colorful embellishments. This sounds like a fashion confetti!

I thank Almighty God, the Creator of this earth and everything in it, for my positive November 2021, hoping it continues next month and beyond.
