Tell us about the last thing you got excited about — butterflies-in-the-stomach, giggling, can’t-wait excited
I haven’t been super excited about anything much over the past few years. I always seem to be bumbling along, trying to figure life out. A few months back though, my family and myself were invited to visit family in Germany. At first I didn’t think much of it, I didn’t even mention it here until the very last few days. I did everything I was supposed to do like organising the visas and luggage, but I seemed to do all that rather mechanically, and was not really affected emotionally yet. About three days before the time though, much to my surprise, I couldn’t contain myself I was so excited. All in all it turned out to be an absolutely lovely visit. We ended up visiting more than just Germany, and I am grateful to have had the experience.

Your general attitude reflects mine. I’m “just bumbling along” trying to figure things out. But at least you did get excited about the trip to Germany (wonderful photo by the way). I’m still pondering what I might have been excited about last….. Hmmmmm. 🙂
I so understand what you’re saying, Dor. I was even excited about actually getting excited about something 🙂
*hugs*
Good to hear you could get excited about it, and you surely had a nice time. I am glad. Me on the other hand I get excited very easily even about very normal day life things. 🙂
That is a lovely way to be, Ute 🙂

Since I do not like traveling so much, I prefer getting excited about family or friends from other countries visiting us. I am glad to hear that you enjoyed Germany.
Thanks so much, It was a lovely trip 🙂

Isn’t it strange how we keep ourselves from getting excited about things. I think the older we get the more we are afraid to be excited because experience has taught us things go wrong. Thank you for the reminder that excitement should be a part of most things we do. You are fantastic Michelle!!
I quite agree with you, Jon. I was actually thinking that as I was writing this post; it is really past experiences that hold us back from getting excited.
You are fantastic too my friend 🙂
*hugs*
😉 You just made me blush!

and you have certainly enjoyed the experience, which
is lovely my sweet friend 🙂 Thank you for sharing 🙂

Ehm… I am actually still very excited about buying my own place (three months ago AND STILL waiting for another two months before I get to move *sigh*), I’m hoping there are no hidden errors with this one :s
I love the picture btw 🙂 great scenery there
That does sound exiting. Good luck with your new home 🙂
*hugs*
So happy for you and the family. It must have been a really exciting trip. Thanks for sharing your feelings. 🙂 Hugs.
It was very exciting, and something I think we will remember with fondness.
*hugs*
I am very glad you had something to be excited about Hope. I know the feeling of just “bumbling along … trying to figure life out”. Great photo! 😀 *big hugs*
Thanks so mucch, Sonel 🙂
*big hugs*
Something to lift the heart 🙂 I often dread and worry over family visits but they always turn out to be wonderful.
They do, I agree, jo 🙂
*hugs*
The last time I got excited about anything was my last visit to Istanbul with my dude in 2010. Since then, everything has just been blêh…
Its good to have had exciting time though 🙂
*hugs*
I get excited every time I see my boys. Every time.
That is excellent 🙂
*hugs*
I find the idea of a trip more exciting that the trip itself. I guess I’m just a homebody at heart. But I am often surprised at how much fun I have when my routines are broken up. I’m glad you enjoyed yourself! 🙂
It was great fun, Lorna. I am a homebody most of the time too, but once in a while I break out 🙂
*hugs*
