Lyme update and some Autumnal lovelyness

First of all I would like to thank you all for your lovely, kind and caring comments and emails about my Lyme disease. Although some of you apparently thought I'd be dead within a week or so, I'm happy to say that I'm not.

Yet.

Actually, after spending most of last week horizontally (lying on the sofa; I didn't know someone could be sooooo tired), last Saturday I felt much better. The dreaded red circle is still visible, but has decreased in redness and in size. Coming Wednesday I'll probably go to the doctor again and ask for a second dose of antibiotics, just to be on the safe side, but it looks and feels like I'm recovering. We'll see if the doctor agrees. Since I felt so much better, Sunday morning two of my friends and I went on an Autumnal photohunt. We are doing a photography course together and wanted to see if we are really understanding everything we are taught so far. So we went into one of the forests close to our house and had a great time. A whole 50 meters walk took us about an hour, because every interesting looking leaf had to be photographed by my friends. From about 10 different angles. *sigh*

I saw some lovely leaves, but also some very different things on our walk:

an alien invader

a farmhouse, typical for our neck of the woods

beautiful isn't it?

how cute are they?

some lovely young ladies

Hope you enjoyed the little Autumn walk through our 'backyard'.
