    Jo honey I can not wait to see the end results. I am loving this piece already. My weakness for art is faces. Love faces and this is going to be a great piece. You so gifted and so glad you are taking the time to be creative and taking better care of you.
    How is the weight loss coming along? Tell me your secrets because since my fall I have put it on and makes me very unhappy.
    Love ya

    The eyes are beautiful.... and haunting. I adore the butterflies too. You really captured how ethereal they are.

    I won't be around for a little bit, (working on a little project of my own!) but I will be back.

    Peace and Blessings, dear Jo.

    XOXO M.

    Your art is lovely...those eyes really "SPEAK" . Now we need to ponder what the thoughts are behind the eyes.

    I hear ya on the weight gain thing. My and hubby are retired too. When I married him Oct/10....and moved from the city where I worked as a clerk for a Judge downtown.....to the COUNTRY.....I did a lot of emotional eating (making the adjustments) and NOW
    gained 20 lbs. I am so angry with myself.

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
