Travels & Travails in the United Kingdom

Marian March 29th, 2007

Traveling always has its’ pitfalls, like the dread of negotiating your way Along Chester's walls!through airport security…

This is my first time back in the U.K. in 5 years. My husband and daughter have each been here 3 times since my last visit!

But, now that I am back into photography, is see many things here with a much different eye… I see the sky and the moodiness of the cloud and richness of the blues! When I return home, I am going to give a detailed travelogue of our trip and I will also work on the photographs that I took and upload them to my gallery.

I noted everything in the Moleskin Notebook that my daughter gave me for Christmas!

More …. Soon!

Finally Over It!

Marian March 9th, 2007

It all began the night /evening before Thanksgiving! That feeling. You know, like you’re coming down with something. Little did I know that I would still be fighting whatever it was into late February.

I had had a flu shot about 10 days earlier, but this was just a cold, or so I thought! When I really started having all of the symptoms, I took a coarse of Tamiflu, just in case the Flu shot hadn’t become effective, yet!

A month later, just after Christmas, I saw my doctor who prescribed a Zee-pac. Nothing happened.

Then into January, the cough and other stuff continued, beginning to feel worse, then February when I was really feeling rotten! The doctor determined that everything had become Pneumonia! Gave me a stronger, more specific antibiotic which did the trick.

Now, this week, I can say that I have had a few days where I can honestly say that I have felt great! I still get a bit fatigued in the afternoon, but I am getting some exercise and feeling, all-in-all, much better than a few months ago!

The weather has been sort of cool, and wet of late. But, now we have the beginnings of Spring. We went out on our first Photo Safari since last November, on 3 March. We went to Maple Hill Cemetery. It is the oldest continually used cemetery in Huntsville!

We are preparing for a holiday abroad. Hopefully, I will have lots-O-cool pictures to add to my gallery!

Bye-Bye from Me!

Cheers!
