I was surpised to feel quite good as I woke up on Wednesday morning. I don’t usually sleep well on a flat bed. My adjustable bed at home has been my friend for many years and acommodates the hyper mobile joints very well. So to wake up feeling refreshed after sleeping on a box spring,Continue reading “June 24th – Trains and Castles”

2026 Greek Vacation
Once upon a time a family member asked ‘If you could go anywhere, where would you want to go’. I think their intention was to find a way to arrange something fun for us to do but, I couldn’t answer the question. I’d gotten so used to my illness and disabilities limiting me, that IContinue reading “2026 Greek Vacation”
June 23rd – Travel Day!
To the airport! At 3:30am. I don‘t remember the last time I got up at 2am for anything. Today I just happen to have to get up, because there’s a taxi on it’s way. I can probably count on one hand, the few times I’ve been to an airport. The idea of going there alwaysContinue reading “June 23rd – Travel Day!”
Cutest Dog on the Internet – In My Professional Opinion
One of the things I’ve been looking forward to the most since I was gifted my DSLR, is a doggy photo shoot. So as soon as Mom left me with her dog while going on a long walk with Jessy, I grabbed my camera bag. I almost feel like he knew exactly what the backpackContinue reading “Cutest Dog on the Internet – In My Professional Opinion”
King’s Day Flevotrucker’s Tour
I think the truck tour is one of my favorite parts of King’s day. Usually each driver plays chauffeur to a child – many of which have a disability. As they ride in the passenger seat, the trucks get in line and start their tour of the village. Honking their horns as they go. IContinue reading “King’s Day Flevotrucker’s Tour”
Beauty in your Own Home Town
Ok.. so I live in a village, not a town. But it really is amazing how many pretty and amazing shots you can make just by taking a walk. We didn’t even go that far from home. There was one new achievement unlocked in this walk. I learned how to snap shots through holes inContinue reading “Beauty in your Own Home Town”
Nature in Nunspeet
Now I’ve ‘borrowed’ a backpack – which I can already see is going to be too small, I went with Jessy in a train to Nunspeet. There’s such a wonderful forest full of little treasures to shoot through the eye of a camera lens.
The Test Shots
So I got a Canon 2000D and after a little research, I understand how to change apature, ISO and a couple other settings. I just need some models to practice with. Luckily we have a lot of fun little ornaments in the house. They didn’t mind volunteering their modelling skills.
Carrying Light Into 2026
Standing and watching the last-ever street fireworks on New Year’s Eve—before the ban is implemented—made me reflect on all the changes 2025 brought with it. Lower blood sugar. A little more mobility. A hearing aid in my right ear to join the left one I was already wearing. I found new online friends. I dealtContinue reading “Carrying Light Into 2026”
From Bird Drama to Banana Trauma
It’s been a while since I wrote an actual blog.Sure, I’ve been gracing you with the delightful chaos my brain dreams up, but now… brace yourselves… I have actual news. It began with a hard decision. I’d been dealing with sneezing fits and mild breathing issues while caring for our budgies, Yin and Yang. Yang,Continue reading “From Bird Drama to Banana Trauma”
