ANOTHER AWARD PASSED ON TO ME......OH MY!


This lovely award has been passed on to my be two wonderful bloggers out there.

Danielle at My Blessed Serendipity Life and Mina at Green Witch With Sprinkles.
Please visit each of these wonderful ladies as they have beautiful blogs. I'm always honored to receive awards but from now on I would like to make my blog AN AWARD FREE BLOG ...I hope all of you understand.
Kind of a double whammy....hugh???

I'm supposed to tell you seven things about myself that you don't know already.
I'm pretty open on my blog so don't know if I can come up with seven...but here goes. By the way...am I supposed to do 14 since two bloggers awarded this at the same time....Oh MYYYY!!  (O:(O: O.K.here goes.

1.  I lived in the Panama Canal for l 1/2 
    years during my first marriage.

2.  I attempted to learn how to play the 
    piano...but never practiced...so I 
    was fired by my sweet teacher. (O:

3.  I've been married to my wonderful 
    husband for 31 years and plan on 
    being another 31 if God is gracious.

4.  I dabble in art with pencils, pastels
    and watercolors.

5.  I learned to tap-dance when I was in 
    my 40's


6.  I don't golf...but live on a golf-
    course.

7.  I have two brothers...one older
    one younger.

I'm also supposed to pass this onto seven other bloggers...and I always have such a difficult time doing this because each blog out there is so wonderful in its own way.

As always...I'm always grateful for each and everyone of you...you bring joy to my life.

Jo

    Jo, I enjoyed reading your answers, and I'm with you about the golf courses. Mr. Magpie used to play a lot (I have clubs), but I would rather ride in the golf cart and pick wildflowers (if they're available)!

    XO,

    Sheila :-)

    TAP DANCE AT 40? YES!!! I love anyone who attempts to try something new and DIFFICULT at a non-conventional age! I started to learn French at 34, the harp at 41 and what I plan in my 50s is a double whammy indeed!!! Can't stop just 'cause the calendar keeps reminding us of the numbers!

    BEAUTIFUL JO!!!!

    Yes.....Mimi....There is a video floating around....unfortunately...I don't have a copy. We put on a recital at Phoenix College and they did tape it but the teacher left shortly thereafter...so I never received my copy. )O:

    Oh well...just have the memories.

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
