OK....HERE IS HOW TO ENTER......TELL ME ONE THING YOU ARE GRATEFUL FOR......
NO.....IT CAN'T BE THE USUAL FAMILY AND FRIENDS RESPONSE....WE ALL ARE GRATEFUL FOR THOSE...IT MUST BE SOMETHING ELSE....
O.k. I'll start......I'm grateful for the sight in my left eye....
Without it I would be completely blind....and I am such a visual person I would be at such a loss without my vision.

O.K......YOUR TURN.

    Good morning! Any friend of ZuZu's is a friend of mine. I'm so glad that you stopped by. I am truly grateful for the wonderful friends I've found in blogging. I've learned so much from them. I was fortunate enough to actually meet two of them, face-to-face, on my recent visit home to Virginia. I'm looking forward to visits with you.

    Best,
    Bonnie

    Please don't enter me in your lovely giveaway, as I need to downsize. I just wanted you to know I thought this was very generous, and thought provoking!!! Being disabled, I am grateful for any moment I am not in pain, and seeing people bring joy to others is something I am grateful for!

    I am grateful that I am healthy. I hardly ever get sick (going on 3 years without even a sniffle) and I realize how this makes my life so much easier. It's kept me determined to stay healthy through my senior years and off of any medication. I truly am either lucky or just blessed. Either way, I am grateful for that gift of health.

    With all my disabilities, I'm grateful to just get up in the morning. I'm grateful to God for all his goodness and I'm grateful to him for all the talent that he has given me. It makes me happy.

    Having a chronic illness that causes me considerable pain, I am so grateful for the rare days when I am able to do just that little bit extra. I consider those days to be true blessings.

    Jo, I couldn't help but notice in your header, there is a vintage flyer for Quackenbush's of Troy, NY Spring Fashions. Being from Glens Falls (just up the road a piece from Troy) it made me wonder if you have roots here in the Northeast???

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    Blessings,
    Martha

    Dearest Jo: I am so grateful for the wonderful outlet I've discovered (blogging) and for all the incredible and talented, gracious souls I'm constantly meeting, such as yourself. Having relocated from my hometown into a larger city, oftentimes, I've felt disconnected, but this opportunity to share with like minded, creative individuals has helped me feel like I belong to something larger than myself. Blessings to you, always! Sheila

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
