30 Days Of Thanksgiving, Day 30!

I want to thank all of you for tagging along me throughout this November on my journey of appreciating my Blessings both big & small.

Today I'm thankful for all of you, for those of you who shared what you're thankful for on your own blogs, for finding a new primary care doctor who has no problem working closely with my Rheumologist (and even deferring to him really since I see him every 4-6 weeks), for Hubbs calling to find out how the appointment went, for the rain holding off until we were on the way home, for the warm purring kitty on my lap who always seems to know when I'm not feeling well, for taking photo's of the garden on Thanksgiving (as I awoke to seeing the wax begonia's, nasturtiums, cosmo's and zinnia's taken out by a hard frost) and for how being thankful has helped me to remain positive in light of all I've been through (and continue to go through) these last 5+ months.

I think it's a wonderful habit to be grateful. Every night before I go to sleep, I think about what I'm grateful for.

Glad you had a good doctor's appointment and have found a good PCP - it makes a big difference!

Thanks Sue! And it certainly does! Every little bit helps keep our heads above water, doesn't it?

It has been a pleasure to follow along with you. Thank you for sharing openly and honestly from your heart. :) It's often the simplest things in life that matter the most - and we should all be thankful for them more often that we sometimes are. :) Have a great night! Theresa

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...

A Walk Through The (Dis)Enchanted Forrest (Halloween Party Post)

Welcome & thank you for visiting my post! For more Halloween fun today & throughout the weekend, visit A Fanciful Twist . For more Halloween & Autumn Fun, check out my "Autumn Tuesday" & "Halloween Thursday" posts by clicking on their labels in the left hand column. ~Happy Halloween & Pumpkin Blessings! *Update for those friends wondering, I put this together prior to surgery yesterday to make sure I would be able to post it for today! (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...
