  2. Oh Jo Sweetie...
    How precious is this of you. I love this little pretty with the crown.

    I can tell you what made me follow you. I was drawn to you by the name. The Soul of a Grandma is exactly what I have, and I so wanted to meet people that I have something in common with. Now I keep coming back because you write with such beauty, and you take me to many places I have never been before. It is like taking a vacation right along with you. You write so vividly I feel as though I am right there with you.

    From one Grandma's Soul to another Grandma's Soul I love you sweet friend.

    Many hugs and so much love, Sherry

  5. Hello Ms JO!
    Oh, I feel as if I have walked into a fantasy land...your giveaway is so lovely. But since I have not been able to comment for so long...only to read from "afar" I shall disqualify myself.
    However, I will tell you why I read your blog.
    It is unpretentious, inspirational, wholesome and a most lovely presentation. I feel as if your blog and its style is a true representation of who you are.
    A lovely individual!

  8. Hello Jo!

    I'm a new following, finding you along the path from goat blogs, to farm blogs, to antique blogs, then to yours!

    Why did I decide to follow you? Your blogs are mini-stories, something I can immerse myself in.

    I am drawn to gaze at the beautiful photos and graphics to the right of the screen...soft, beautiful and with just enough passion, and just enough love, and just enough cuddles in them.

    And that is why I follow you.

This says something special of yourself. Plus I love the spirit of your blog and the human touch which is so missing today.

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...

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
