Oh hey holiday season, where'd you come from? Oh, out of nowhere?? Yeah... sounds about right!

Ya'll (yes, I say "ya'll")... I cannot believe we are already in November. I cannot believe we are 2 months away from 2019. And I cannot believe that between now and said new year, the average American will gain 10 freaking pounds!
