Update on the Lyme situation: there is no Lyme situation anymore. Hip hip...
Update on Willem's braces-situation: he is now bracesless, hehe. Again a hip hip hurray (hooray?) feels appropriate. His jaw has healed pretty good. The two teeth are sticking out just a tiny little bit, but as the vet said: "he doesn't have to win the Miss World competition". True! Not even the Mister World, which would be anatomically more correct, although he misses some vital parts for true Misterhood.
Sorry that I've been away for a couple of weeks again, but it is a serious case of time flying. Don't you feel that the days go by far too fast? I do. There are not enough hours in a day, not enough days in a week, etc. So blogging hasn't been at the top of my to-do list.
The photography course has finished. Due to the Lyme I've missed lots of lessons, but I do feel that I almost understand how my camera works now. Have to practice a lot to fully get to grips with all possible settings. So...this afternoon there were speed skating competitions, a marathon for women and one for men, in a neighbouring village and I took my camera.
As you can see, the Netherlands are covered in snow. We haven't had this much snow since 1979 I believe. We feel that we are living IN a Christmas card. I'll be posting some more photos some day soon.
The dogs and even the horses enjoy playing in the snow. Not so sure about the cats, but even they go outside a lot so they probably like it too. As do we.
In case I don't have time to post again this week:
wishing you all a very merry Christmas and a truly wonderful and happy New Year!
Be good!
And a Merry Christmas to you too.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that things are looking up/healing - hope they stay that way.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and yours too and a peaceful and healthy 2010!
Hiep hiep hoera!
ReplyDeleteThe photos look great though, even if you missed so many lessons. And as for living in a Christmas card? They never show how hard it is to cycle through 25 centimeters of snow!!!
Pleased to hear you have got rid of the lymes. I love your shots. Merry Christmas
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas hugs and kisses to you my BBFF! SOME day I'm going to get back to blogging...and you're going to LOVE the title of my first post! HA!
ReplyDeleteYou do seem to be living in a winter wonderland! It may be nice to look at, but for me, 's no joke, all this snow and icy stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome back just as I'm taking a break. So pleased that Willem is back to his lucerne munching self! I did a photography course in the winter and it poured with rain so we didn't get the opportunity to put our theory into practice, I'll have to enroll again as I'm still struggling with night shots.,You don't rug your foal? Even our old boys are rugged in winter and it barely reaches 5 degrees celsius. Then they're not stabled so they get pretty fluffy1 Have a wonderful Christmas, stay warm whilst we swelter!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that Willem is doing well- and you, too, of course! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back up to snuff again and that Willem's doing well, too.
ReplyDeleteI love pictures of snow... as long as it is not in my yard.
I enjoyed the photos and the story about the DJs.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos... love the snow.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas.
Hugs, Cece
