IT'S BEAUTIFUL IN ARIZONA......COMPANY'S A COMMIN'.......


It is Springtime in AZ.....the most beautiful time here; if you can actually say we have a spring because it goes from being beautiful to HOT!

Anyway, March and April are THE TIME to be in AZ if you can.  We seem to have a lot of people visiting this time of year and moi is no exception .

Time to get busy:



Fluffing up the house......

Doing laundry 


Cooking and baking......


Maybe a pie or maybe a cake!!!

Making meals......no time for creativity.......


MUST put flowers in their room...



And REMEMBER TO....



And the most important thing.....take time to enjoy them while visiting on the porch!!!



Lesson to be learned here:  Don't get so exhausted fluffing up your nest....that you have no time to truly enjoy your visitors.  It's the people who count..not the stuff!!!

See you in a little while dear friends,

Blessings,


Jo

  5. I love your yellow rose in the blue vase. Fresh flowers in their room? You will spoil your guests and they won't want to leave with all your baking and prepping. Keep creating...

  10. I must agree! Company comes to see you unless you have your house on the market, and its an entourage of realtors, don't sweat the small stuff! Have fun with your company. By the way, Springtime will only be evident here on the calendar until late April. Can I visit AZ too? Love Ya Meg

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
