autumn photos end October

 Halloween has gone and the holiday season is sneaking up on me. we have been taking photos, Jonathan playing with his drone and taking pics as well. so many pretty fall pics of New Hampshire. check them out below and in the shop as well.

  So Halloween night we changed I light bulb at the end of the driveway, and I saw something on the lawn and went to take care of it. well, I tripped on a starter rose bush and I swear I traveled 20 feet trying to get my balance and not fall, well I lost the battle and hit face-first. The eye corners on both eyes near my nose are so dark today. I thought I broke my nose at first but now just my head still hurts but looking better. seems I have gotten one big fall every year for the last 6 years. Usually, my knees suffer.

What a wonderful week this foliage week was,( a couple weeks earlier.) I walked more than I had in years. One day I wanted to see the other half of a covered bridge that they placed down a path over another part of the river. So I walked and walked and walked some more, it was over 3/4 mile up the path. I took some pics so grateful I got there and did it. I didn’t know if I could with my health, it wasn't like it was before my cancer, but I was so proud of myself. And then another 3/4 mile back. So I walked over a mile and a half.

Then another day walking around parks and beaches with Cozy as Jonathan took drone photos. I was only 100 steps shy of the day I did the trail 2 days earlier. So proud I did it again. So great to make the steps I am supposed to for my age and health issues, so awesome. Here are some pics of the trail, and the first and second half of the bridge.

Autumn is here it has been a busy Year

We sold our house in Rhode Island a couple weeks ago to a flipper he liked that we had it gutted out to the studs, it should be up for sale again within a month we think, I can't wait to see what they do with it. 

With the house money, we'll be doing some fixes to this house in NH, not many just the unfinished bonus room we want to do ourselves, and a metal roof. All in all, we are very happy with the home, and savings are in place, and a bit extra. We are going to be going out and getting some foliage pics soon, also setting up an Esty shop for my crafts and downloads and such, hoping it will be up very soon for Christmas at least. That is why so busy. We are pretty settled in NH and loving it, still odds and ends to finish up before winter. Dan, our neighbor, has been a huge help with some of the big yard clean up and Jill and Kathy are great neighbors. Most around here are so kind, we love it. Jonathan got a new drone for his birthday, I will be learning on his old one. We are hoping to get lots of fall pics this week and videos, but we will see.

I have added items to both my Redbubble shop and Zazzle.

Redbubble new Items here, just click "Nature Collection", and the other is "Cute Winter", or browse my other collections.

what is up?

 what am I doing thinking WHAT?

we have made friends fast up here in NH and just so many friendly people, at 2 different bridges people have stopped and told us the history of the bridges I love how kind and proud everyone is. 

I have been enjoying gardening a bit, taking photos going to the lakes and more I went for my yearly appointment and tests all is well I am on the arm gadget to measure my sugar I love it makes things easier with reminders graphs, and more. I am doing well just some leftover breathing issues from cancer treatments I was doing so much better before treatment and R part of R-chop (chemo) but am grateful they have it because it saves lives like mine what it does in simple terms is allow treatment chemicals of chemo attach directly to cancer blood cells to help kill them better it doesn't always work but most often does putting folks like me in remission it can also raise havoc on longs and heart in some cases I have to keep working on lung capacity but I am great and feeling great and grateful for being almost 4 years in remission. please help find a cure for blood and all cancers give when you can hugs and love to all who have supported me in the past with well wishes and prayers I believe it helped put me in remission as well you all made me strong.

I have been arranging my shop on Zazzle and added a couple more collections of garden flags, New Hampshire, and downloadable prints large and small. I also have been working on crafts to do Etsy shop candles and 3d modeling by me and Jonathan downloads and much more. hope all is set up in the fall.

I enjoy coloring for my mental health and or relaxation I also like drawing and creating coloring pages for you all to color if you like I give away a lot of them for download and have some for sale to color for posters and your own greeting cards or what you like for sale and downloadable at Zazzle.

I just thought I would share some fav stuff online and more.

what else is up we watch decorah eagles for a couple mo then after the baby's fledge we watch the bears catch salmon at brook falls love the adorable new cubs and the big old dudes like Otis and 747. on live cams, you can find both at explore web site or youtube channels. 

we also are trying to stay out of politics in hopes to spread happy feelings I guess you would call it just ignoring any hate from all sides. live and let live we say we find quite a mix here. but as long as politics isn't brought up hey awesome friendly conversation on both sides. I love it. and just loving nature lately. we even have Dan across the street who when on his riding mower comes over and mows our lawn out of kindness. 

I created a page for only updates for blog and stores like a quick page to get to stuff  you can find and save it here

so photography nature, working on the house, setting up an Etsy shop, drawing and crafts all keeping me busy for now hugs all more soon.

Entering summer updates and pics

    Well hello, and welcome to the summer that is sneaking in we have a lot of spring with so much rain this year but also the hot and humid summer. I haven't been able to pull fully from the winter gloom and depression I get. I will get in the groove of summer soon.

HEALTH

so lots to report seeing as a lot of this blog has been health-related as well as family and opinions recipes and just stuff I will start with health just saw doc and had a mammogram and last year had that smile box test that comes in the mail and both big tests came back no cancer yay very happy, waiting on my blood work to come back should hear by end of the week. I am hoping to have the arm diabetic monitored after tests and find out about my blood cancers my family doc now in charge of it because been almost 5 years cancer free. hope diabetes and cancer and liver and pancreas all come back ok so many meds and such went through my body these last several years I worry. and since the cancer, I have been weaker and have had a hard time building muscle back and am working still on breathing exercises to expand my lungs back to where they were before chemo. I use a blowing ball and also hold my breath for short times. but I will keep going because I want to keep going ya know? I feel lucky to have what I have wich is a lot to me.

Yup hey, I am also blessed to be here and well now, and have so many who care.  so still on health topics my knees and hips are pretty bad these days so I rest more between tasks and use a cane at times. but I do push I have mowed the lawn twice weed whacked done some fix-it projects and more so I am again grateful I can still do stuff and am alive. Jonathan is also waiting for test results and he still has a lot of arthritis and joint pain. Jonathan also had a nice visit with uncle ned beginning of spring which was nice.

Cozy had her first vet visit in nh and did well all good since her escape after smells and running all the way to a busy fast road to the chickens and deer and a storage business I had to pretend I was hurt and crying to get her back was so worried and angry all at once she also had 2 tics I had to remove, well now she has a new gate system and GPS tags wow I still take a deep breath now thinking of her travels that day.

FUN 

Speaking of our Cozy pup she is a hand full and a lot of fun she loves to play ball bark at every critter jump into our arms give us many cuddles she loves summer ice cubes to play with. s he has a new summer haircut and loves spending time in the sun on the deck or sun spots

oh the deck I have been putting out seed for birds excited to see how different they might be up here in NH and I love getting photos or allowing our nature cam to catch things as well

WORK

Well, Jonathan still doing great at the bank he has a group he leads. We both are working on the house working on our lawn work gardening getting that extra room with dirt floor created into a sun room with floor lol which will take some time. let's see we only have 2 rooms of walls to do the rest are done painted I mean the others we will be doing something different. I am drawing a lot these days and starting photography again soon also setting up an Etsy store by the holidays we hope. depression of winter and rain and joint pain and other health stuff has slowed me a little but I will get going. I am glad I have been keeping up with gardening and lawn and such also a neighbor has helped with some big invasive and dead bush removals he is great.

Keep smiling everyone keep safe be kind 

I guess that's it for now more to come soon. hugs all

Spring is here

 Spring is finally here well I think anyway so now is spring cleaning and gardening. 

I can't wait to get the out side of the new Hampshire house looking good with a women's touch with flowers and more decor.

It had been a long winter but so pretty.

We had a bunch of turkeys in our yard during mating season as the snow melted. Lots of crows during the winter. But finally they have moved in and the small wild back yard birds have returned I think of mom and my aunt sis as I write and watch them.

I miss my lilacs so I am going to plant some with some rose bushes this year. 

Let's see health, well no cancer as far

As I know saw oncologist and he said I will see him in a year and then done I will do maintenance with regular doc. So a bit nervous about that along wit very happy.

Trying to loose more weight we have been able to only maintain the weight loss a year ago so a new push this summer.as we hope to be outside more swimming photography gardening and more.

Cozy our pup is doing great she loves bh 

Well I will try and write more often as we get more and more settled I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter or beginning of spring hugs all.

Another New Year 2023

 well it is a New Year we are almost moved in The New house. We celebrated Christmas and New years in our New home. We have had dot of snow here in nh. I love how pretty it all is.

Jonathan hates all the work and worriers with so much of that white stuff but still enjoys our new home.

We used the mini snowblower and shoveled a week ago 8 to 10 inches we did great as a team although we do worry at times will we be a sustistc of older person with heal try h issues having a heart atac while shoveling out a driveway. We have had more snow since and way below zero temps but all is ok our hot water was down for a day but came back no problem it defrosted on its own. 

We took cozy to the store shopping with us which seems calm on around here she was wanting e to pick her up at first but then road well with Jonathan in the stores scooter on a blanket.

Cozy loves the snow and as far as shoveling , Oh well I just think of it as exercise I so desperately need during these cold winter months. Keep scrolling for pics hugs everyone.
