    Oh, I do love your Christmas pretties, and I'm sorry to hear you weren't up to par yesterday. I was so busy catching up on paperwork before my vacation that I didn't do much visiting yesterday. Glad you are feeling better.

    There's no better fun than decorating a gingerbread house, especially with a child!

    Dear Jo...so happy your 'muchness' has returned to you and you are feeling better. I'd say making gingerbread houses with your grandson is rainbown fluffy! :)

    My grandaughter and I are hanging out this weekend too...who knows what fun things will come about. :)

    I loved your sharings today...very festive!

    Have fun and talk with you soon...
    Peace,

    A fire and a gingerbread house - with a grandson added in - how perfect is that.

    I am trying to get in the spirit as well. We have some company coming for the holidays so I am putting the tree up and decorating! I haven't in the last couple years. For not real reason just haven't. But this year I will! Our grown niece and her husband who we just love to pieces are coming! We are most excited and I feel I want to make the house very festive for them!

    These photos are so sparkly and shiny, and how fun to make a gingerbread house with your grandson. Did you buy a kit or will you make it from scratch? Glad to hear your muchness is returning.

    Oh Jo...I had to scroll down and read your post below. I SO HEAR YOU...in fact my recent post, was just about that really. I too, have lost some of my muchness........and I SOOO WANT IT BACK.
    But, today, I did feel much better. And I am glad you are too....I love all your "pretties" on this post. christmas really is filled with pretty, and sparkly,....and I guess we may not be able to change the world.
    we just have to start within our own walls I guess.

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
