Now What?!

this is a strange time for me. once jan. of this yr passed by, there was nothing on the calendar... nothing specific on the horizon.

we're done moving, unpacking, turning over the old apt., appealing my disability ins. claim, applying for ssd... i can't go back to any kind of job, we can't even begin trying for a baby until late this yr (dr's orders!)...

of course, there's the frequent dr's visits/follow ups, but, that doesn't count! (i'm a bit of a mess to date and have 3 dr's on board trying to figure out what's going on w/my immune system, or lack thereof as it seems to be!)

once feb. of this yr came, i was hit w/the question: now what?! and the terrifying thing was that i had no answer! and i still don't, but, at the moment i'm not as freaked out about it as i was!

i do have some things to occupy me: our new computer, being online, reading, painting the kitchen & bathroom if i can (got those colors picked out-no clue about the living room & bedrooms!), starting a garden from scratch & looking into my options for flowers, etc. because the area's i have here to garden are different than what i was used to at our old place (but here i get to have 2 seperate gardens instead of 1!), trying to focus long enough to write (a most impossible task to date!)...

maybe some of what i have to occupy myself with will help give me some direction as to what i want to do w/myself. i don't know if i've ever actually known what to do w/myself! but, if this is it, that's fine w/me. but, if there's something else, i'm open to discovering it.

An Enchanted Garden Party

Welcome to my post! To visit other participants, please head over to the Practical Magic Blog Party 2010 blog. I must say that while I think Practical Magic the movie is adorable, I think the novel is incredible. And that is where I gleaned my inspiration from for these festivities. Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

2009 Halloween Fete! (Saturday October 17, 2009) **UPDATED!** This shindig is still going strong!

Welcome! I'm so happy to have had so many visitors already! I must apologize for not being ready for you earlier! I also apologize for the wacky font sizes throughout my post. No matter how hard I try, I can't correct them. If music doesn't begin playing shortly after your arrival, scroll down until you see a purple music widget begin to load in the left hand column and wait until you hear the music before scrolling back up here. Happy Halloween Fete 2009! Love and Spookiness to All! ~Jo (Continue scrolling down until the end of the post) Outside, it's a gloomy & cold day here on the NJ coast. Many a restless Spirit wander here on days like this. One can never be too sure if the fog & mist are just as they seem. Inside, it is warm yet equally frightful! Creepy crawlies have gotten into the food & drink, I so hope you don't mind! What with all of the party hopping we're doing, I didn't want you to bust a gut, so I've laid out some Pumpkin Cook

(Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun
