HANGIN' OUT...............................................


Artist:  Sharon Lynn Williams


No......not that kind of hangin' out......LOL

We are really not doing much of anything right now....packing up is finished, have visited with friends and most of them have headed for their respective homes for the winter. 

Skyler is now in his third lesson in class.


This was the sign Miss Ellie has waiting for us the first day....


We are making some progress....but he is FAR from being the teacher's pet...I might add. (O:  He does keep us busy...but.....

I'm actually not very good at just hanging out....you would think by now, at my age, that I would be more comfortable with that concept.  I'm the kind of lady who always has a project, or has to be doing "something".....to waste time is very uncomfortable for me.  Guess that is a lesson I'm going to have to learn.  As I get older, I'm quite sure I'll be doing more Hangin' Out...so I best learn how, huh??  LOL

Wanted to close with this great sign:


That's it from here.

Hugs,

Jo

  1. Skyler is so cute, and I just love the idea that he is in school. Now, as far as hanging out? I love it. Absolutely love it. But I am sure in time I would get bored.

  2. We're at Lake Pleasant and it is hot. 98 today with 100 for the foreseeable future. Skyler is such a cutie. We took Scooter to school and she flunked - really flunked so we didn't even try with Skittlez. The teacher told us that dachshunds are notorious for being stubborn, I'm not going to do it, students.

  3. he is so very cute, how could he not be the teachers pet? I don't like doing nothing but it seems that I do more and more of it all the time..;j

  4. Hello Jo:
    Well no hanging out for Skyler!

    For our part we simply love days when there is nothing we have to do which, for the most part, is every day. But that said, we choose all kinds of interesting ways in which to pass the time and conclude, like so many others, that there are never enough hours.

  5. Love the sign, very true. We often think our first impressions are far more accurate than they actually are...we all have a lot under the surface. Wishing you all and cutie Skyler a great weekend, Pam x

  7. Its pretty hard to sit and do nothing. I totally agree.
    I seem to be falling into a nice pattern at the moment and I am enjoying it.
    For me , there is always something to do.
    Now, i find more time to pamper myself and enjoy my relax time.
    Glad that Skyler is coming along. He is so lovely.
    He will be fine with patience. I have 4 little ones.. they soon know where their place is.
    wishing you a good weekend JO.

  9. I am sure, Skylar will be a great student. He'll wiggle his way right into the teachers heart.
    Hanging out...I have had to learn to do that since moving here. After working downtown at a courthouse, busy with kids, grandkids, friends, clubs and gyms's........the solitary life of the country has kind of kicked my butt.
    I PREFER to be busy and productive, but in the winter especially here, I just HAVE to come to peace with hanging out

  10. Jo,

    Thanks for stopping by and discovering my blog! Much thanks for your reply and may I say I've jumped abroard your blog now.

    Sounds like you and I are cut from the same cloth per se', hard to just sit and squander away blessed time. Some day we'll slow down, haven't a clue when, but until that time, if there is a garden that needs weeding, I'm sure we'll be there.

    Warm hugs,

    Cotton Peony

  12. I am not a sit around and do nothing kind of person either. I am not even much of a TV watcher as I feel like I am wasting time. I love the sign....for it is so very true.

  13. First, that's a grogeous painting. And second, that photo of you with your dog is wonderful! One of my dear friends breeds Cavalier King Charles, and I think they're just wonderful!

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY......I'M GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!

I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate.  Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive.   I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1.  Listing our current home the end of the first week in November.  We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance.  We just want to be able to live more and work less.  Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there.   2.  Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest.  We will visit 5 countries along the way.  One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany.  My  family  left Germany right after the war...when I was quite young.  Memories are almos

PUTTING ON MY GYPSY SHOES......................

Bo Bunny Paper Collection Well.......the coach is packed...the laundry done in the condo....and we will be on our way tomorrow. I often do feel like a gypsy moving from one spot to another....and each year my gratitude grows as I am able to continue this lifestyle. I truly would love to "do up" my coach in Gypsy Style...but alas....not too practical as things probably would be flying all over as we traveled down the road.  (O: But.....a girl can dream.....can't she? ~~~ My suitcase is packed with memories To be opened further down the road When my caravan must be halted The bag waits to be opened Stories to be told and shared Like the gypsy's of so long ago But for now....the wheels keep turning And my case grows larger still Waiting for the day..I must be stopped   And my heart, to the brim, will be filled Hugs from me to you, Jo Gypsy photos:  Electric Gipsyland on Flickr

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS

This is a picture of our little tree this year.  Each year our trees seem to be smaller, a function of our getting older and just wanting to deal with less stuff.  I'm sure a few of you feel them same.  Although it does seem to be a little weird that we want to deal with fewer Christmas decorations and give each other MORE STUFF in the way of presents under the tree.   Ahhh...being human is such a quandary sometimes!                                          MERRY CHRISTMAS                                                          Jo
