HAD TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU!!!!.............





Is this not the cleverest????

Received this little WRITTEN NOTE in the mail today....from my dearest friend.

We will be traveling with this couple in the fall..they have been  our cruise mates on many an outing.
THIS particular friend is extremely talented and clever....she always thinks a little outside the box....which OF COURSE I love.....and I also love it that she took the time to actually WRITE A NOTE....instead of texting or sending me an e-mail....Ah...maybe the OLD TIMES ARE STILL IN EXISTENCE FOR QUITE A FEW OF US.  HOORAY FOR THAT!!!!!

Have a smiley day,

Jo

    Don't you just love snail mail? What a fascinating note!!! I never would have thought of writing in a circle.

    I know Mary....neither would I. That is why I had to put this out there in the Universe. LOL

    That is so unique!

    I have started sending cards to people now & then.

    It is nice to get something in "snail mail" now & then.

    I found you through "10 Steps to finding your happy place" blog.

    I would love for you to check out The Blogging Buddies

    We have grown so large that I started a social networking site today!

    I wish more people sent thank you notes and letters through the mail--it is always a special day when we get greetings that way.

    I just had a typing meltdown. It's late, and I'm tired. LOL!

    Here's the way it should have looked...

    XO,

    What a wonderful note! I have a friend who I exchange actual letters with. It's such a lovely, lost art form.

    Very nice to 'meet' you too - thanks for stopping by my blog!

    Any written notes we receive now days, we should keep for posterity. They will probably be valuable treasures, worth money, in the not too distant future. What with the scarcity of hand written missives, these days.

    Regular mail, gosh!, I was unaware it still existed! :) I'm joking. It has been quite some time since I received personal letters or cards. Christmas cards, but that's it!

    Wonderful gift, the note, and wonderful share!

    Thanks for the follow!

    Your blog is awesome! Gorgeous photos and we do have some of the same interests!

    Blessings!

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
