I'm Back.

This is just an update till I get going again..Had trouble with thyroid acting up..not a fun time.
If anyone is taking Armour Thyroid medicine and finding they are having trouble..they messed with their product. It put me down for the count..took awhile, but I didn't realize that was the problem from spring off and on into summer..till fall..
Waiting on bloodwork results..So if anyone is on Armour and having trouble..please check with your doctor. They reformulated their product last spring and no one knew about it..Neat..
Something that is over 100 years old..did good all those years..so why did they mess with it?
Makes one wonder. This is a natural product..pharma can't make money on it..but from reports I read FDA going after it and because of pharma..Was on synthroid and had rashes/ulcers/bloat..Please pay close attention to what goes in your mouth and what they prescribe for you..Be your own judge. I have seen too many mistakes in my life by people that trust in someone else to be watching their health..
I could write a book on it..won't bore you..Just a warning..Know your body and watch what is prescribed.

Veteran's Day...

My heart breaks when I look at all the sacrifices our men/woman give for our freedom..Not just in America, but all that fight beside our troops. God Bless you All. Would not let this day go by without thanking you.

Shadow Shot Sunday..

I caught the shadows in the yard.

The house shadow was kind of neat on the ground, then the other day, house shadow is in the trees..

The last shot is in Portland, from hospital. While waiting for daughter to give birth and getting nervous, took camera out and started taking pictures (Baby/mother doing fine, little girl).

Notice the first picture. We had snow..melted now.

Fingerprint Friday.

As much as I dislike snow..there is a beauty that only God can create..the first snowfall.

Woke up this morning and there it was. Should be gone by this afternoon and I will be happy.

No matter how much I dislike winter, it gives a beautiful picture and I am always thanking God.

You can't like everything in life, but you can always be thankful. So here is our Fingerprint from God..Make sure you visit Pampering Beki's blog for other wonderful fingerprints.

Happy Halloween to All...

My Dear Friend Richie, SimChieinspires gave this to all her friends. What a sweet award and thank you for sharing it, Richie.

I must say blogging has sent many wonderful people this way and I am so thankful for each and everyone of you.

Happy Halloween to you all and may you get a lot of good treats.

Fingerprint Friday.

Today, I was going around the yard and took a few pictures for Fingerprint Friday.

The trees and sky are always my favorite.

The sun was just coming up and the jet streams were crossing, like another picture I took. Always reminds me of the cross..so I had to take a picture. Everywhere we look are Fingerprints from God..these are just a few.

Be sure to visit Pampering Beki's blog and see other beautiful Fingerprints.

Our Old Shed

Husband is trying to save the shed on our property. You know, this shed has such a cute look.

The size of the windows tell me, it wasn't just a shed. We hope to put new windows in. It has two rooms inside, seperated and in the center, looks like a bathroom spot. Very interesting.

In later years, someone used it for chickens, I think..but that is not what it was. Maybe we will find a buried treasure here..ha, ha..

Anyway, the project is started. Won't finish till next year. Will make it a cottage..and cute it will be.

Till next time, keep looking up.

Beautiful Day.

Took a few pictures in and around our yard..It was beautiful out. Sun shinning and warm. A little bit of heaven and thanking God for this day.

Shadow Shot Sunday..

I have to admit..had a very tough time with shadows, this week.

First one, is from the Halloween lights over my sink. Second, is coming in the den, through the Indian shutters and the last is from the window on the rug. It is an odd one, the rug is a nice green and came out b/w.
Hasn't been the greatest day for shadows. Rain, rain and more rain. Guess I should be quiet, it could be snow.

Fingerprint Friday.

I am using some of our grandchildren for Fingerprint Friday.

This is at a baby shower for our youngest daughter. Just look at the young nieces/nephews right into it. They all gave something from themselves to her..It was beautiful. I am not sure who was more excited, daughter/grandchildren.

You know, this is a special fingerprint to me. It shows all the love we share and what is important in life. I can't stress this enough, it isn't "things"..they are a temporary fix. Pure love lasts through everything and that is what is important through all our trying times in life.

So this Fingerprint Friday, I send you all "Love", the secret to life. Peace/Happiness always follow.

Shadow Shot Sunday.

The shadow of the clouds/bushes made a nice shot, in the morning. Then the sun hitting the curtains in the living room..and last, a light reflection on the ceiling in my studio. Did a little different this week.

Be sure to visit Hey Harriet's blog and check out other shadow shots. Who would have thought, looking for shadows could be so much fun? Thanks Hey Harriet.

Getting Cold.

Just to share the cold weather with everyone..29 degrees this morning..

Frost all over the place. Pretty, but makes me sad. Winter is on its way and we really didn't even have a nice summer. Oh well, just another day in Maine.

Till next time, keep looking up.

Happy Columbus Day..

Happy Columbus Day to all..

Here is a replica of one of the ships..

Santa Maria..

Poor thing needs some work. The threads that hold the sails are rotting. It is quite old.

Shadow Shot Sunday.

Well, I have been sloppy with my Halloween shadows..I can't remember where I put my decoration I used last year. Today, I give you my best shot..Finished decorating the kitchen area and took pictures..They are spooky and fun. Moved the camera so I would get the look just right.

I know you are all wondering why I put decorations up, when there are only the two of us here.

Well, when the grandchildren visit and to be truthful..in the morning/evening I light the lights for the two of us. Second childhood.

Be sure to visit Hey Harriet's blog for wonderful shadow shots..join in the fun..

Fingerprint Friday.

These little flowers are all over the place in the fall.

I believe they related to the Aster.

They bloom in the fall, here in Maine. It is almost the final wild flower before winter.

Such a beautiful fingerprint from God. Always happy to see them, but sad too..kind of bittersweet, since I know winter is coming right behind them.

Harvest Moon Shots..My Way..

I am always trying to get beautiful moon shots..but hit my hand both times on the window sill.

Well folks, the first two speak for themselves.

The last I finally got something half way decent.

A Sad Picture.

This beautiful pine tree gave me a few lovely photos.

My husband asked me to look at the window and if I saw anything different..I almost cried. They are cutting the tree down.

I am sure they have their reasons and the tree did look like it was dying. It was just the shock of seeing it go. It is near a home and probably very dangerous, but will miss my beautiful tree.

Nothing ever stays the same..isn't that a true statement?

Shadow Shot Sunday.

Did good this week on shadows. I am one proud lady. Took my camera shopping and remembered I had it with me. That alone is a first. Fed the seagull and he was very willing to pose for me. Then I got a nice picture of a fish trying to join the other fish in my painting. Can't say I blame him, the painting is of tropical waters.
