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

I'd rather be gardening myself but spring is being stubborn here in the Midwest. Lovely rose. Enjoy!

A beautiful rose Jo. Hope it smells as sweet as it looks. Enjoy your gardening before it gets too hot.

I won't be seeing one of those from my yard for another three months -- this is just lovely!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could garden, but the oak pollen is fierce right now. Maybe in a few weeks.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been visiting much either. Haven't had the heart to of late. I do try, though.
Glad to se you posting.
