Autumn Splendor…

The fall colors this year are pretty spectacular. Not sure if it’s weather related since we had such warm summer with not a lot of rain. Or is it due to me being home all the time while still recuperating from chemo and I’m able to actually see all the magical changes that is happening in the trees. Either way I’m truly in awe of this years Autumn splendor.

I think the reds are my favorite although the golden tones of the yellow colors are pretty impressive as well.

Then there are the ones in between like this pink beauty..

Then you have the remnants of summer’s flowers and seeds which regardless of how bare they look Autumn’s golden light seems to bring life back to them.

Until Tomorrow with more of Autumn’s Splendor..

Tuesday morning…

This is pretty much what I will be doing today which is fine by me since the couple of days have been a bit busy. I don’t even know where to begin to catch up.. ok.. first off.. went down to get Hayley in PA two Sunday ago which was fun but exhausting.. had chemo two days after I came back so I was bit behind the eight ball so to speak for that treatment. Spent a few days recouping from said treatment. Did so some gardening Saturday.. albeit at a very slow pace but was well worth it and really did feed my soul and spirit. Then of course the wonderful Healing benefit here in Hallowell this past Sunday.. it was awesome.. I saw so many people I haven’t seen in so long .. there was so much love and support I couldn’t have asked for a better day.. of course I am now paying for my few hours for that afternoon of mingling and attention but.. I can tell you it aided in my healing more then you can imagine. Here are some images from this wonderful day..

I’ve been wanting to write blogs posts every couple of days but can’t seem to get to it.. I also have so many photos I want to upload, edit and shoot. Also… I got a brand new Holga Camera from some dear friends in the mail yesterday so now all I want to do is play with that. However it seems the cancer now needs me to rest so my body can do some healing to catch up with the mind/spirit healing that is taking place.

Looks like it will be me sitting here with Boo as seen below on my nice comfy chair in my room.. trying to finish an overdue library book, reading up on my new Holga camera, taking snaps with my cell phone (because lets face it.. when you don’t feel like getting up it is so very easy to take, edit and upload all from your phone), napping with the dogs, chatting with Hayley and lastly.. being in the moment.. which I am learning to do more and more every day..
