Autumn entered in a whirlwind of rain and wind, lightning and thunder.
And yet, summer tried to wrestle autumn away.
Alas, autumn won.
Pomegranate leaves turned yellow, just like that.
It is cool under the moon tonight.
Mombie and I went out to turn off the twinkle lights in the cottage, and we ooed and aaahed about the brisk air and star filled sky.
The pumpkins are coming along, more than I even thought.
Thank you pumpkin king, for the gift of your orange beautiful babes in the garden.
Early morning sky had a glimmer of light.
Like a big brushstroke of golden paint.
The pups carry on with their lovely shenanigans.
Miles and his morning paper delivery always warms the heart.
I am off, on my way for a little while.
Pumpkins will wait for me.
I look forward to collecting.
Most of all, I look forward to continued visits with you.
See you on the other side of bits and bobs of life's crazy adventures.
My heart loves this place to bursting.
Here, in blog land with you.
Your visits, your light shining through.
I hope to see you once again.
Sooner than soon.
Much love,
Vanessa
Dearest Vanessa:
Before you know it, in the blink of an eye, you’ll be back. Visiting and planning for Halloween and gathering pumpkins.
We’ll be here, waiting and looking forward to spending Autumn with you.

Last night was the first night it was cool enough to have the sliding door in my room open all night. It was wonderful! I do love summer here, but the heat was starting to get to me a bit and I welcome autumn. Good luck and we will see you back here soon!
Be well Dear Vanessa! Keep strong with Faith, Family, Friends and Furry’s as we wait right here for you!!! The garden fairies and gnomes will keep watch over your gardens and your magical pumpkins will be awaiting to party upon your return!;)
Sending you Love and BLESSINGS<3
I don’t comment very often lately, but I do check in on your wonderful magical little corner of the blogosphere and the world, and you’ve been in my heartfelt huggy thoughts lately. Looking forward to October stories from you soon soon soon!
I did wonder if we would hear from you once more before you went away for a bit, and I was not disappointed! Thank you for the beautiful welcoming of autumn. I am welcoming it with open arms!
I know we will be seeing you again before the fairies can sing too many rounds of “John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt.” Wait! Silly me! Do fairies sing such nonsensical songs? I am really not sure. Will you ask them for me? I feel you have much more of an “in” with fairyfolk. ; )
Holding thoughts of you close to my heart. Bringing your name before the Lord and asking Him to help you through your challenges, dear one!
Sending more love 🖤 than you can even imagine…all will be well and you will be playing and twirling in that glorious pumpkin garden before you know.
xxoo
I know Your just fine.Your fine ,your fine ,your fine ; ) ……and You’ll be back to Your ol’ self sooner than soon.Blessings Denise
I don’t comment all that often, either. I just wish you well, and I hope every bit of goodness and grace you have sent out into this world through your blog finds its magical way back to you over this next bit of time.
Best –
Sarah
And remember: there are no bad/wrong questions. Always feel comfortable to ask and ask away. I learned this from a doctor for whom people traveled from all parts of the world fo treatment. He never rushed thorugh our appointements and always fully answered every question.
Much love and light and warmth your way, Sweet V. This adventure could be the greatest blessing of your life.
I’m wishing you the very best my friend and keeping you in my prayers. Take care your yourself. Sweet hugs!

From their long journey from me and here to you my blessings to get well soon shall bring with them the cheerful chatter of the North Sea seagulls, the power and refreshment from wind and waves of the Atlantic Ocean, the vibrance of life from the big cities on the US East coast and the light of sparkling stars over the Catalina Mountainas to comfort you. Everything will be fine.
Love you sweet & dear Vanessa! We will be here anxiously waiting with open arms!!!
