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

Ok, the second picture, (oh, I know I'm suppose to be looking at Christmas decor, but I get side-tracked when I see beautiful things, lol) I LOVE the old chippy background in this picture, what is this piece? Now, onto the last pic, I am drooling over this mirror! Did you do this? Or, is it really, really old? Either way, I LOVE it! And one other thing, I want my pictures to do like yours, you know, with the white ring around them...I love this look, especially for Christmas decor. What do I need to do?
ReplyDeleteOh please don't block me from your blog, lol, for asking so many questions.
