CONTINUED POST ABOUT LIFE.........



OK....here is the remainder of yesterday's post..
29.  What other people think of you is none of your business.
30.  Time heals almost everything.  Give  time..time.
31.  However good or bad a situation is, it will change. 
32.  Your job won't take care of you when you are sick.  Your friends will.  Stay in Touch.
33.  Believe in miracles.
34.  God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
35.  Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
36.  Growing old beats the alternative - dying young.
37.  Your children get only one childhood.  Make it memorable.
38.  Read the Psalms.  They cover every human emotion.
39.  Get outside every day.  Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40.  If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd
grab ours back.
41.  Don't audit life.  Show up and make the most of it now.
42.  Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
43.  All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
44.  Envy is a waste of time.  You already have all you need.
45.  The  best is yet to come.
46.  No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
47.  Take a deep breath.  It calms the mind.
48.  If you don't ask, you don't get.
49.  Yield.
50.  Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.


That's it......have a wonderful day.

  2. All of these are so true. I used to especially worry about what people thought of me. Aging has taught me differently.

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
