We had a nice visit with our friends Albert and Wilga. As always, lots of nice talks, good friendship, and we also made our first bonfire of the season. We were also glad that Albert was very happy to have the nice little old Dutch stove that Rob’s sister Anne […]
It is really starting to be spring here, and we are happy to get out of the house and do things again. The reason for the title of this post is that we are trying to reclaim some of our previous life, and get back to doing some of the […]

Nice day today to cut down branches. Jane also helped to fill-up the bird bath.
Echte een mijlpaal! Since Rob broke his lower leg (tibia/fibula) 8 months ago, he has not been able to use his standing frame. We have seen a real negative effect in his health and overall well being when not being able to use it. Today he was able to finally […]
“Lingua canis dum lingit vulnus curat” “A dog’s tongue, licking a wound, heals it” Rob has been having skin problems with his affected hand. Because it is often contracted all day, it becomes moist and he gets skin irritations. It does not appear to be fungal, and there are no […]
Rob said “I laid a square egg with this painting today”. I’m not exactly sure what that means, but I know that it is a good thing. Acrylic on paper. A4 29.7cm x 21cm (11.69″ x 8.27″)
I’ve been looking for something I can use for shelves in our window in the spring to grow seeds, and in the winter to grow herbs. I had a hard time finding something that would work and that was also not too difficult to install. I went into the shed […]

The OMC has a monopoly on supplying medicinal […]

I’ve been looking for something that Rob can use to keep warm after he takes a shower and also that covers him up a bit while sitting. We have tried robes, but they are difficult to put on, and if you only put one arm through they don’t cover-up enough. […]
