I'M NOT ONE TO WEAR MY HEART ON MY SLEEVE......BUT



today..of all days I'm feeling a little lonely and lost.  I know tomorrow is Valentine's day and I certainly have that special Valentine in my life but for some reason I have a little case of the blues.


Don't get me wrong: I'm extremely appreciative of all that God has given me and then some.  But....I still have a few little loose ends to tie up and I think that is what has laid me low.



It is time that I focused on the things I can change and let go of the things I can't.
As we all know, that is easier said than done.

Anyway, sorry for this blue post on this sweetest of days; the day before Valentines Day.  This, too, shall pass.

Here's wishing each and everyone of you a wonderful and loving
Valentine's Day.

  1. We all have those days and it is a good thing to post about them and share them with us so that it is not so heavy on your shoulders alone.
    You will feel better.

  4. Hello Jo, sorry you are feeling blue... I have noticed alot of the ladies feeling that way lately, maybe the weather too??? In my last posts, I showed our little farmhouse that we built and I love so, but we moved when developers took over our countryside... I got very emotional over that post and all of my memories of the little farm we once had... it IS hard to let go of things you no longer have and~or people and pets, etc... sending you heartfelt wishes for a Happy Valentines Day and feeling like your old self again soon... xoxo Julie Marie

  6. Jo~~~

    It is okay to do a post, happy or sad, because we would not be honest if we were to pretend that we were always up, up, up. I feel a little low tonight myself and don't know why and sometimes that makes it worse. But tomorrow will be here before we know it and there is always THAT promise.

    xoxo

  10. Oh, Josette, I so understand this mood. I was having it last month...but it will pass. Guess sometimes our minds just find a melancholy corner and sit for a spell...
    Hope you smile tomorrow (O:

  12. Life hands us many challenges and sometimes it causes us to lose our way. Then we feel like we are all alone. It's good to reach out. As your blogging friends, we understand. Please take care...

  14. No need to be worried about a 'blue' post, even now. Part of anyone's 'blueness' just might be, the silly over-build-up to holidays like Valentine's Day and Christmas.

    As if they are supposed to be super, duper, special and all that. -hehhhh- Nothing can live up to all that buildup.

    And yes, please do work on what you can change. We all have that to do, too.

    But as to those things you "can't change," are you totally sure of that? Or are you looking at some bothersome stuff, as Your Duty? Or I Have to Do This? Mmmmm, who sezzzzzzzzzzzzzz? I think we really need to apply that "Who sezzzz?" to a lot of stuff in life.

    If nothing else, it sure would shake up all those who DEMAND stuff of us. For one reason or another. ,-))))))))))))

  15. Just wondering, do you really need Word Verification turned on? If you fear spam, couldn;t you turn Word Ver. off, and turn on the Comment Verification?

    With Comment Verification, we read our Comments, before we let them Publish. So, no spam.

    And we alllllllll read our Comments some time, don't we? So, why not read them, before we Publish them?

    Just wondering.............

  16. Happy Valentine Day! I get the blues alot, mostly because I have a lot of loss in the early spring months. I know its coming and I try ot prepare for those months ahead.
    I hope you get the loose ends all tied up, things like that can be pressing, especially if your not looking forward to tackleing them.

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
