I’m back


As you might know, I have been away for a while

I traveled to Denmark, as my mother was seriously ill. Unfortunately, she didn’t survive and died the 24. of February

I’m grateful to have been there for her in her last time in this world. I was in the hospital 24/7 and slept in same room too, to support her best possible

She did wake up, when she heard my voice and had a time becoming better, before her health was worsening again. I feel grateful to have been able to be there and to hold her hand in her last days and in her last breath

We kept the ceremony for her Monday in this week

I have opened my shops again and will start posting new jewelry in here too in short time, if possible

Please bear with me, if I don’t visit as many blogs, as I use to at the moment

Remember to appreciate your family, while you have them

My shop is temporary closed


Dear Readers

I need to travel to Denmark, as my mother is in hospital in a bad condition, why I chose to close all my shops temporary, until I’m back home again.

I will travel in the coming week and stay away for about 1-2 weeks

If you choose to buy from my shop here, while I’m away, you must expect to wait some time to receive your jewelry, as I don’t bring those with me

My shops at Etsy and Amazon are in vacation mode by same reason

Another important information for all of you: I usually create only one of a kind unless I get a special order for more of same kind. While I’m away, I’m not able to remove the selling option through PayPal, which I use to remove just after each sale, so if more than one are buying a jewelry, the one who came first through with their payment via PayPal will receive the jewelry and others get their money in return, so soon as I’m back home again. I hope for your understanding

You are welcome to contact me here and I will answer, when I find the time for that. I will also read some blogs, but I travel to use the time with my family, so it will only be short in blogging

Wish you a happy and healthy weekend

Irene

Dear Reader


To the new bloggers

First of all, welcome to my new followers. If you are a new blogger, I will ask you to be patient with growing your blogs, as this demands time and engagement from you

I have been blogging in soon 7 years and do follow many blogs, which already are more than I’m able to read all posts by. When you are new and wish to get new readers and followers, it can be difficult to find the way to get those. One of the best ways is to both like and comment others blog posts. If you are a new follower at my blog and you only like and never comment at my posts, I will rarely visit your blog at all. You need to present yourself by commenting at my posts to expect a visit at your blog

To all my Readers

I have been working to get my new shop here at WordPress to function best possible and changed a lot to make it most useful for all of us. Instead of having one page with all my jewelry for sale, I made different pages at my blog to make it more manageable to use. As I didn’t buy the big packet from WordPress, I’m not able to create a totally separated shop with subclauses etc., why I made these pages instead:

Earrings for sale

Bracelets for sale

Necklaces for sale

Jewelry Set for sale

By time I will expand with more pages for different kind of sales

I do still sell my jewelry at both Etsy and Amazon too. I will close my Etsy shop this year by different reasons. I will keep my Amazon Shop for those, who wish to buy from there

If you have any special wishes for jewelry, you are always welcome to contact me and I promise to do my best

Wish all of you a happy day

Irene

My life now


If you are a regular follower of my blog, you will know, that I love my family and my fur kids

Odin, my dear boy

Today I have some not so good news. My dog Odin had surgery last Monday to get removed a tumor in his mouth. Today I received the answer of the analyze of the tumor

Today Odin becomes 7 years old and today I was told, that he has an aggressive form of cancer, as already now might have damaged his brain

After much thinking, I do see signs, that he has changed his behavior through some time now. I thought of this as his age, his illness of Hip Dysplasia etc. but I didn’t mind, that this could be the results of cancer, as reason for his behavior

Unfortunately, this is the truth. This is really hard to write about, as I really love my animals, just like they were my human kids

Odin is my only dog and the only kid, as I have left in my home. I will need to send him in front of me in very short time, even if I had the hope to bring him with me to Germany, when I move to there

Last year, I needed to send my two old cats in front of me, which I wrote about here: Rainbow Bridge

After a not so happy year in 2019, I received the best gift in the end of the year, which I wrote about here: Positive News

Right now I just feel very sad, as I did hope to be able to bring my Odin to Germany in my next move, which I work hard to get fulfilled, but no…

I’m sorry, if I miss some of your posts at the moment, but this situation I don’t wish for anybody to go through

Positive News


As a regular reader of my blog, you might know, that last year 2019 was not one of my best years. The worst was, that I needed to send both of my old cats over the Rainbow Bridge, which I wrote about here

Just before the new year arrived, I received the most wonderful gift, my third Grandkid, as my daughter gave birth to. She sent me some photos, as I’m allowed to share with you

My daughter Claire and my granddaughters Elin & Gaia
Gaia looks happy
Gaia – a little thoughtful
I love this photo of Gaia
Welcome to our world Gaia
Elin helps with little Gaia, best possible
Happy Elin

Now you might even better understand, why I wish to move to South Germany, where my daughter lives with her family. I wish to help her best possible and to be a Granny to my wonderful Granddaughters

Rainbow Bridge


This year has been tough in many ways, worst of all, both of my pensioner brother cats passed over the Rainbow Bridge. Bølle passed yesterday and became 16 1/2 years old and Hvide passed in June just before he became 16 years old. Both got help from the vet for passing, as they were old and sick, even if we have been through crisis several times inside the last years, it was time and both gave me sign for that. No matter the signs, it was hurting a lot and still does, to let them leave in front and I wish them all the best ❤

Now we are Odin and I left and we need to find our way into a new future together and hopefully, we will find a way to move to South Germany in the coming year. As you might know, I have my daughter and her family there and wish to get closer to them

Rest in peace and thank you for sharing your life with me, little Hvide ❤
Rest in peace Bølle ❤ and thank you for sharing your life with me

I’m not in mood for much blogging at the moment, but will try my best to get back into the routine again

Readers Help Needed


Dear Reader

You might know, that I do sell my Jewelry at both Etsy and Amazon. This is expensive companies to join, as they charge their part for me being at their platforms

I have thought about trying something new and I need your help here, before I decide what to do

I think to change my account at WP, so I will be able to sell my Jewelry directly from my blog at WordPress, which would help me to keep the prices down, as no others will get commission from my selling

Now the big question: Would you have confidence to buy directly from my blog at WordPress? Or do you prefer to use Etsy or Amazon?

Payment will be through PayPal, which I have used for many years and they give security for both buyer and seller

I hope, that you will help me by answering my questions. Thank you kindly in advance

Blogging and Life


Cloud 1

Sunset seen from my house

I find it a little difficult to get into the custom of blogging again. One week, I have lots of ideas and the last month, I haven’t found the feeling for blogging. I hope, this will become better again

Sometimes life interrupts our dreams and ideas for living and we end up in a place, where we didn’t expect to. Then it is good to remember, that we are always just, where we need to be

My personal life has also changed and so have my dreams

About 7 years ago, I followed my dream and went to live in another country, than the one, where I was born. I moved to Spain, as I wished to try to live with more sun and better weather in general, which came through

Now time is for changing again

I have got grand kids and I do miss my family a lot. I do also wish to become closer to my kids and grand kids. It isn’t possible to get close to the whole family, as we are now living in 3 different countries, but I can get closer to one and then I will be closer to see the others too

As you might know, my daughter is living in Germany and my son in Denmark. Both have kindly given me grand kids 😀

My health is so much better now, than it has been for more than the 2 last years. I went to a control yesterday and the doctor couldn’t find more of the bad illness Q-fever, as I was so very ill with. This is so very positive. I will need to continue my medication against the same until December, as is necessary with the treatment of this illness. Then it will be time get back into a more healthy life. The medications are very strong for the body and they take down my immunity system. This results in very little energy and abundance, also for blogging

When I lived in Denmark, I had challenges with my Arthritis, as there is very humid and very green. So Denmark will not be my next destination, but South Germany instead. The weather there is more in the middle of what Spain and Denmark have to offer

As you can think, it is expensive to move from one country and into another, so I’m now trying to save as much as possible to be able to go on to my next adventure

There for I have changed the prices to even better offers at mostly of my jewelry in my Etsy Shop. All will go directly into my savings for the move to Germany, so if you buy my jewelry, you will help me to fulfill my dream. Thank you kindly in advance

If you have special wishes for jewelry, you are welcome to contact me and I promise to do my best and still for fair prices

 

Remember to live your life and dreams, so you don’t have anything to regret…

I hope, that you enjoyed to meet my Granddaughter. I feel privileged to get two Grandkids inside such short time and wish, that I was able to just travel and visit them, but this must wait a while yet

I have taken a break from blogging, I’m not away, but need time and abundance and will be back in short time again

Dear Reader


I will not be much online for a while, so please forgive me for not visiting your blogs so much.

The road, where I live, lost our electricity yesterday morning. There had an explosion in the cables and much needed to be changed for new parts. 

I live in a rented house and the others are living here do own their houses. In this case, all the owners needed to agree to buy and pay for the repair of our electricity, before the electricians began their work. 

We ended up having electricity in the middle of the evening, after more workers were called in because of mistakes at the public cables too.

Unfortunately my PC screen went up in smoke, while the repair went on and my router died in same time, so I do only have my mobile for now.

Wish all of you a beautiful day, Irene
