"HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS".......................


Ah......at last we are home in our little spot in the Southwest.......It is good to be home.....Don't get me wrong, I am so very grateful that sweet hubby and I get to go on these little adventures........But Sweet DOROTHY said it best
"THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME.


I know, cleaning and dusting and catching up will be a first priority.....but it is so great to be in your one special spot
that you almost don't care how much you have to work to put it all back together.


I see that Miss Minnette could certainly use some sprucing up.....I found her a few yummy things to wear while I was out galavanting all over our beautiful country.


The coach is unloaded.....not everything is put away mind you.....but my sweet bathroom (which needs to be remodeled terribly (O:(O:) awaits....with yes......a 
BATHTUB.
Can't have one of these on a motorhome so I go a long time without being able to sit in a hot bubble bath.
Must be off now.......my hot bath and comfortable bed awaits.........
BON NUIT

Glad to be back....I've missed visiting as much as I would like....it will take a while to catch up.

    Dear Josette,

    Welcome back home! Indeed, home is where the heart is. Nobody knows that better than my husband and I for having been all over the world as International Consultants and even lived and worked in Indonesia for almost 3 years. The bathroom at home is one of those 'ultimate' luxuries when having been away for quite a while. I'm just 3 years behind you, but guess I've more mileage on my record with at least 1,500,000 miles in the air. Not on a motor coach though.
    You will fluff back and tackle the chores at home. Always amazing what one can accomplish in just one week's work!
    Enjoy being home and have a nice day/week!

    Sunny greetings from Georgia/USA

    AH, so glad a took a late night peek and found you home safe and sound. Take a day or two before tackling all the chores, they'll still be there. Bubbles come first :)

    We both have computer things to catch up on so I'm glad summer stuff is pretty much over and we can settle in for the cooler stuff.

    Thanks for sharing the beautiful country with us Jo...you're awesome.

    Sending a sweet hello from Frog Hollow Farm. So happy to see you both safe and snug at home and glad to hear that your trip was wonderful. This is the perfect time to nest and if you ask me, a bubble bath is the closest thing to heaven! Ciao, bella!

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
