LET ME INTRODUCE MISS SOPHIE - SHE WAS A LIFE SAVER!




Please meet my little Cavalier King Charles, SOPHIE!  She has proven to be a life saver on more than one occasion.



We picked her up when she was 12 weeks old.  She has been a joy to us ever since.

Sophie, is really the first puppy I have ever owned.  Getting her so young, and watching her grow has taught me so many life lessons - it is truly remarkable.




She rests when she is tired, plays when she wants to, eats on a regular basis; and in general takes care of herself on a daily basis.




She even has an artistic bent from time to time.



She suns herself when needed and gives kisses away freely.

I told my adult son the other day that dog was GOD spelled backwards, and he looked at me like -duh- who doesn't know that.

Well dear friends, I didn't realize this little fact until quite late in life during a particularly difficult time in my life.



Blessings to you all dear friends.

  5. Dogs just seem to know what we need don't they? Cats do too but they really don't care.

  6. Sophie is beautiful. She looks like quite the charmer! lol. To be loved by a dog is one of the best blessings in the world. I don't know how I would have survived my divorce without the "boys" I had. I've since lost two of my boys and it broke my heart. May Sophie have a long, happy life.

  12. She is precious. I have lived all my adult life with dogs and can't imagine waking up to face a day without them. Little Sophie is darling! My first little dog is going to be a Cavalier. When a little girl I fell in love with spaniels and had a spaniel X for years. There's something about their eyes and happy ways and the fact that they love you so deeply - not that all dogs don't love you like crazy - the ones I have now are priceless.

  13. She's such a sweetie. Dogs love us with all our faults and know how to give what we need...

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
