    Jo - your blog is beautiful! I think I love the Thomas Kincaid the best. I have three of his paintings in my home and I could stare at them all day long. I will live in one of his cottages in my next life!
    I'm so glad you've become a sister i the Bloggerettes! Lots of fun people out there to meet!
    Enjoy your day! Karen

    I was just saying to my sister she needed to add three on the back of her home to finish off the Tuscan look of her outdoor room.
    What lovely photos Jo!
    I think I will show her your blog, hopefully she will get the hint her windows need help! :-)
    Have a lovely Sunday, cheers!

    I was out jogging the other day and saw a beautiful window garden and thought how much would I like one myself! Imagine opening up your kitchen windows, a cake in your oven, and smelling your own pretty flowers :)

    Thanks for the post

    Oh you've brought back some precious memories for me! I was blessed to live in Germany which has some of the most beautiful window boxes that you could imagine.

    Thank you so very much for your kind words and support.
    May your open door only reveal beautiful things.

    HI Jo- Thanks for stopping by the other day; this takes me back to Paris, where I tended a tiny windowbox in my top floor garret. This really makes me smile....have a wonderful day!

    What a joy!
    I cannot say that I have a true one...but rather a makeshift one. It does indeed bring me great pleasure.
    I am certain one day you will be in the midst of just such beauty!

    And I'll be in the window next door, and they'll all be the kind that smell so good when you open the shutters...
    Fun to dream, huh :)

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
