💛Going silent💛

 💛

I wanted to, and did, post about the early September Wedding of our Granddaughter, before posting this.

 💛 

Life was still more smooth then.

💛

I am the full time care giver for my husband.  And have my own health issues.   Thankfully I have the advice and support of our two sons!!!!

💛

But I can no longer blog, as I always have.

    💛 

After my Dear Blogging Friends have been able to read this post,  I will "put my blog to sleep."

         💛 

Blogger does not make this easy.  The only way I know of, is to make it Private.  Which includes an off-putting message that the person trying to read my blog, is no longer allowed to do so.

               💛 

Obviously not the message I want to give!!!!!

                     💛 

But I am telling you here, the reason I have to put my blog to sleep, and thus, you will know.

                    💛

Words can not express, how delightful it has been, to be a member of "Pretty Blog Land," as I always called it.   Nor can I express how Grateful I am to all my Dear Readers, for our interaction.  

       💛

Love and Best Wishes to you all....  

      💛

💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 💛 

                        

🎄So happy...🎄

 So happy that many Dear Readers also enjoy the Hibernation Feeling of deep Winter.

Again, I have made my print the largest I can, to make it more readable on my screen.  Perhaps a bit too large.   Do hope you can adjust the size, which shows on your screen.  It's very easy on my new Mac laptop.  Just click on "command" key and on "+" key.   And to make it look smaller, click on command and "minus" key.

Same for my illustrations from Pinterest.  I'm making them Very Large.  I always love big pics, on blogs.  😊

Going to be looking for reading, which is in the Deep Winter Hibernation theme.  If you know of any, please share.

And maybe blogs, which delve into this, at this time of year.  Guess slow living blogs would be a good place to look.  

🎄

 

Btw, that click-able link yesterday, which *wasn't*....  It came to me later!!!  Duhhhh!!!!  You use a *little thingy* right up on top of where you compose your post!!!

🎄

I simply need to calm down, when trying to post and etc.  😉

lol....

as you can see i tried to change my header...

and  made a mess of it.  😒

and can not figure out how to make my text here,

a proper size.

all in all my blogging skills have gone out the window.

eeeeeeeeeekkkk

the photos part of this new blog is brand new to me.  at least that's my excuse.   and it's so.   😕

soooo guess i should "hang up my keyboard" for now.

Again, Merry Christmas!!!

🎄

🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄

🎄🎄Back...Sort of🎄🎄

after the hacking...

my old, old computer was not worth paying $$$$ to have it totally cleaned.   it was not going to last much longer.    so got a small apple laptop.  

since old, old computer was not able to be updated in any way, in years, learning to use this new and totally updated laptop, is a challenge.   Unbelievably i was able to get here, put a picture up, and write this.  but when i will have time to do it again, i don't know.

just saying i am (sort of) back.  😏  

and wishing all of you, 

a Wonderful and Happy and Peaceful Christmas!!!!

🔥🌲📕Already turning...🔥🌲📕

Per usual, I'm ready to turn the calendar page, even before a Holiday is over.  😊   So my Header changed, the morning of Thanksgiving.  

 

My mind turns to the coming season of snow and snuggling inside.  

Nature is very dull at the end of November.   We need a bit of snow, to perk the outdoors up.   Well, up in the North, that is.

And definitely need some whimsey!!!   A LOT of WHIMSEY!!!!

🌰🍗This and that🍗🌰

 Have used a tablet case forever.  The other day, I took it off.  I prefer using it, without the old floppy case.  It's not in much danger, because I use it in the same place, when sitting in my comfy chair.  Or at kitchen table, rarely, but where I am now.    Actually composing this post.

 

My usual blogging spot is at my old computer.  It's really so old, that I try to save it, when I can.  If I can compose on my tablet, and then put pictures in, at my computer, it saves some use, on my ollllldddddd lMac.

Hope you have all your plans set  for Thanksgiving.  Here luckily, all we have to do is show up.   Family is doing the rest.   At our age  that's very nice.  :-))))

Cold weather is truly here.  Brrrrrr....   But more seasonable, than those warm temps.  

And all the landscape is mostly a dull brown.  Which can be a bit depressing.  I always think of a witch/artist, who said she finds the muted colors of November, to be calming.  I haven't been able to convince myself of this.  How about you? Can you find November's dull colors, to be calming?

Again apologizing, for not commenting on your blogs.  Time is again an issue.  Being a carer takes a lot of time.  

I do love to post now and then.   But just don't have the time to read/comment, as much as in the past.

Just saying, because it is not my preferred way of blogging.

Gentle hugs

💛🍁🍂Do you consider...?🍂🍁💛

 -smile-

Have you ever started to write something to post...  Thinking of your lovely Dear Readers...   And stopped!

Realizing that your posts do not just show, to your lovely Dear known Readers...    But rather, to all the world, who is on the World Wide Net.

-sigh-  It can make one not wish to share certain things, thoughts, happenings.

But then, an awful lot of Bloggers, do not ever consider this.   They share many daily happenings, their regular weekly/monthly happenings and 'goings,' etc., etc., etc.

I really do not like to enumerate the patterns of my life.  Someone who knows your hourly, or daily, or weekly, or monthly patterns, knows way tooooo much about you.

Your turn...

What say you...?

Please and thank you.

And the air is wild with leaves,

We have had our summer evenings,

Now for October Eves!!!!!"

Here, still about the same.   But doing research.  About change.

💗💛 More 💗💛

 As is obvious, I am not on Pretty Blog Land, anywhere near as often, as I used to be.

There have been health changes in our home.  And as a result, I have much more to do, than I used to have. 

I miss blogging.  But it isn't possible, in my old way, for now.  I will leave Comments On.   But please know, I do not expect them, when I can not make as many visits to your blog.

Words of Wisdom 101

Ageing brings changes.  

Please plan ahead, for possibilities.

Get rid of stuff, ruthlessly!

Know when/where to downsize, before it is necessary.

Know all about your finances!

Being an *ostrich* is not a wise way to age.

🍁blogging...autumn decor?🍁

Link

I had given up on finding newly published posts, on my Gadget.   And I was simply clicking on the blogs, which had last commented on my blog.    And clicking on each blog link, in a list of blogs I like to follow.  🌼🌼🌼🌼   But I added and removed some blogs, on my Blogger New Posts Gadget...   And it seems to be working again!!!!!    Hooray!    But time will tell...

Link

How about you?   Any troubles?  If not, how do you see new posts, on your favorite blogs, please?

Link

Our weather is lovely, with sunny days and cool nights.   It could make one think of Autumn....    But it is a tease!    Hot will be back!   -smile-

Link

Are blue skies, puffy clouds, and cooler temps, putting you in a Autumn Mood yet?   Some are.  And it is fun to contemplate an Autumn Palette.  🍁🍂🍁   But I also know, I will not be doing that much home decorating.    Perhaps it's age...   Or whatever.....    But I can't 'get into' as much decorating, as once I could.

Link

How about you?  Do you still enjoy contemplating your next decorating spree?    I hope you do!!!!

Link

Or are you a bit like me?    Not enjoying it as much, any more?   I hope you are not!!!!!

Link

It is sad to lose any form of Joy!

Link

Perhaps I will give myself a talking to, and try to regain some of my former Decorating Mojo.   -smile-

🌸🌷🌺 I'm sad...🌸🌷🌺

(Source of all illustrations)

I'm sad, that I seem to have let my Blogging Life go...  During these last few weeks of health issues around here.  Life has become very busy, in different ways.  And Blogging has fallen by the wayside... 

Which is sad for many reasons.

🌸

   Our Blogging Life's Connections can be very important in our lives, especially with age.  One can "travel" on the Net, when it becomes difficult, to do so, in reality.  I really don't want to let it go, any longer.

🌸

Even if I can't always leave a really *good* comment on blogs, every day...   Even if at times, I can simply read and leave a comment of "Gentle hugs" and 🌸🌷🌺 ...   I know you Dear Readers will understand, and it will be enough.

🌸

Soooooo, with luck, I'll try to return to Blog Land.  Doing it, how I can, each day.

Thank you ahead of time!!!   Because I know, you will be fine, with this arrangement.  😊

🌸🌷🌺
