IT CAME UPON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR......................


THAT GLORIOUS SONG OF OLD
FROM ANGELS BENDING 
NEAR THE EARTH
TO TOUCH THEIR HARPS OF GOLD.

"PEACE ON EARTH~~GOODWILL TOWARD MEN
FROM HEAVENS ALL GRACIOUS KING"
THE WORLD IN SOLEMN  STILLNESS LAY
TO HEAR THE ANGELS SING.

HERE IS WISHING ALL OF YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND THE HAPPIEST OF HOLIDAYS...I SO MUCH APPRECIATE ALL OF YOU AND THE NEW FRIENDS I HAVE MADE ALL OVER THE WORLD!!

hugs,

JO

  7. Christmas will be hard for our family this year with the loss of my son...but I am trying to find a way to smile through the tears.

    I heard a saying similar to this one time
    "a friend is one who sings your song to you when you forget"

    I have had lots of support through this difficult time. I AM hearing the songs I need to right now.

Goodness...........I haven't opened my blog or posted since December of 2021.  Don't know if I will start blogging again as I don't like to use Google for anything.....but who knows. Guess if I want to put my thoughts on paper Google will be necessary. We will see what happens. Stay well.....✋

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...

2020..can you believe it?  With each passing year I am more amazed that I am still here.   Both my parent's died very young and if genetics prove correct sometimes one can have the same fate.  Anyway....I digress. At the beginning of each new year I always find myself wondering what this particular year has in store.  With advanced age you can almost always depend on little surprises here and there.  Your life can be bumping along and then suddenly everything changes in the blink of an eye.  Your health changes, your finances change, family troubles, death of loved ones...the list goes on and on. Instead of making any resolutions for this upcoming year....I have promised myself that I will embrace any and all change with thoughtful consideration.  No panic attacks, no jumping into immediate action, no needless worrying about things I cannot control. I know that is a tall order because being human we...
