Awe, my dear Roostah friend 3 We are kindred always and forever. We must sleep on the same wave of creative consciousness or something ;-) 3 3 3

Me too me tooo, I am feeling so much more magic fall than scary Halloween. Am I okay? Do I need to have my temperature taken? haha! Im just over scary - I used to love that feeling and now I dont. A little spooky mayve or mysterious but downright scary is not my jam. I promise I will tell you soon about what is now in my garden - and I promise you will faint. xoxoxoxox

Oh we loooooove the rain here too! As I read in your last comment - Im still thinking about what you said about kids brains being rewired. I often worry about this and think about it - how living in a tiny cell of social media algorithm internet world can be so dangerous - especially if you do not know any different. I can disconnect because I can tell when Im too connected and I need to stretch my arms out and go do things not phone related. I grew up probably in one of the last generations to not have internet in highschool and earlier. When I went to college the internet world had just hit and people were exploring it. I can not imagine not knowing what its like to ride bikes in the wind and pick flowers off the side of the road - and not worry about what anyone else is doing or how if you dont document it it never happened. Yikes! I can only imagine the things you see and know - creeeepy. I feel sorry for kids nowadays. I hope they still have kid lives where there isnt endless worry about pointless stuff 3 3 3 3

such an incredibly fun time of year, cheers Miss Ricki 3

I love love love Jacaranda trees, I hope to plant one one day 3

Oh wow, you are good ;-) Thank you for the mantel props <3 3

Awe dear friend <3 <3 <3 Your healing heart, big hugs!!! Nostalgia can be good and it can be hard - and I know yours must have been very hard. I am so glad life is finding a new way to begin the next leg of your journey, xoxo

You are welcome from the bottom of my heart Melanie♡ thank you so much for sharing with me & for being kind & understanding♡♡♡

Oh yes, a little tap tap tap- ghost entering. I can't wait for you to get your autumn weather🎃💕🎃💕🎃

Oh you did?💕 I love making spell jars too, so much fun💕🎃🕷

I feel like he might be playing with the old guy who previously owned the place decades ago, ooooooo!😊 I like Febraury too but August can go😄

Thank you Sandy, Pumpkin Holiday here we come!🧡🕷🎃💕

Phyllis, you are going to faint when you see my drawing! This is exactly what I've been planning for 3 months, toooo serendipitous for words!🎃🎃🎃

Thank you Bev, I totally agree, it is so benefiting to our own hearts. It's like a journal and it is a wonderful way to keep memories of what we are up to alive <3 <3

Oh yay! Thank you Marrissa, you are such a joy! I am so glad you enjoy the posts, I will truly try to come back more often. You are so right, totally therapeutic. Cheers to sparkles and glitter! <3 <3 <3

I so agree, I want to see everything and everyone. It seems like a rotten thing for everyone but Instagram. Netflix also has an algorithm and it never ever shows me any new shows. I don't really think it's a benefit. I want to choose what I want to see, not have a computer choose it for me and box me into this tiny little world, right? :-) I hope you get more time to do all the things you love :-) <3 <3

Yes, I think social media makes it so easy to neglect our blogs, but it's not super fulfilling. I hope you do plunge back in too, I figure even if there are crickets, at least it's my own little sort of creative journal to enjoy <3 <3

Thank you Miss Laura, I agree with every single thing you say. Ig is quick and nice to connect on some level when were are too busy to hunker down and blog. But boy do I miss the creativity of it (blogging) on a more regular basis. I hope I can work it in more regularly for certain. Here come October, that fastest month in the world!!! xooxo <3 <3

Thank you Ellie, I am so glad you agree about the bizarre world of algorithms. If there is one thing I dislike (my parents say I came out of the womb screaming this) it is being boxed in, in any way. I want to see everything that's going on and everyone that I like and enjoy. I understand why companies love them for ads and such but I do think that algorithms are stinky for everyone else :-) I am so with you, can't wait to see how the season unfolds <3 <3 <3 Magic abound!

Phyllis, I love that! I think it is just wonderful to pass on the joy we find, truly <3 <3 <3 Thank you for your lovely comment <3 <3

Thank you Serena, me too, petals and sparkles are true magic :-)

Thank you Sherrill, I am so glad you enjoy them <3 <3

Thank you Tina, that means the world to me!! And pumpkin holiday is ever so nearrrrr <3 <3
