ME AND MISS SOPHIE.....UNDER A TREE...........



I know my post today doesn't sound very exciting....but I do like to see the person on the other end of the blog line occasionally.  Yep....that is me and my wonderful Cavi King Charles, Sophie.  I don't often post personal photos on this blog...but I did want to let you know that there is a face that goes with my blog.  I've recently lost 20 lbs.  and am feeling really great.  I plan on keeping it off....we
will see if I am able.


We are currently in Ojai, California.  Never been here and it is really beautiful.  The park is at Lake Casitas...here is our view.....


One towards the water.......the other


Towards the road.  Took a few pics of the Ojai area in town.....will save that for another post.

Tomorrow a short drive to Santa Barbara.  Haven't been there in over 30 years...I can
only imagine the change.

As I mentioned before....while traveling the wi fi is so very difficult that it is almost impossible for me to download everyone's blog so I will comment when I can.  Just know that I appreciate all of you and so love sharing my little journey with you.

Hugs,

Jo

  20. Congratulations on that 20 lb weight loss! I've been on a similar journey over the past year and still have some more to accomplish, but I know how wonderful it feels to feel good in your body again. Your blog is interesting; I don't know that I would enjoy the nomadic lifestyle and confined quarters on a daily basis, but I would definitely enjoy visiting the various places and having that type of freedom to travel. Your Buddha made me smile. I have one in my bedroom where I see it each day. :)

    Namaste',

  23. I'm smiling and clapping my hands! You told me you had lost the weight. Now I can see how happy it's made you:) And Sophie, glad to see her now too. But like I said before...you're beautiful no matter the size! As I've been going through your posts, I one caught my eye on the 'You might also like' thing. I'm going to email you something I think is pretty awesome... Enjoy your journey and I'll watch for your newest posts.

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
