Autumn is Progressing…

… at Attingham Park

Fungus Home

The pumpkin patch has now been harvested and the cabbages look delicious.

As I started my walk the rain set in so I wasn’t able to take many photos. Back at the car, after my walk the rain eased off to almost nothing!

    I wouldn’t like the rain and cold weather. but then your vegetables look so lush, it is worth surviving some wet days. Do your flowers and trees also look terrific?

    Uff. Once again I took my intention for my deed.
    But now:
    Autumn is progressing, indeed.
    A golden October day today in Seanhenge, though, but the days are definitely getting shorter.

      This year all my intentions have been blown off course…
      Mum’s health, hospital stays and ongoing appointments, many of which are dropped on us at the last minute meaning I have to shuffle my own personal commitments around.

      It is difficult to find a little time for myself but autumn colours always give me joy :-)

      Having cared for my mother-in-law 24/7 in her last years, my good thoughts are with you, CherryPie, and with your Mum.
      She will feel what her daughter is doing for her.
      The peace of the night, my dear.

        Knowing that you cared for your mother-in-law leads me to often think of you when I am going through difficult times with my mum.

        It gives my comfort (and perspective), thank you.

      Outsiders may not be able to empathise, but you will draw strength from it at the latest in retrospect.
      Feel yourself tenderly hugged, my dear.

    Oooh, what a beautiful bounty! I love fall, it’s my favorite time of year!

    How is your mum, btw, since you wrote this post?

    Hope you’re holding up okay. Care for our senior grandparents and parents can be exhausting, but there are those golden moments of connection that will arise that you will always remember, too.

    Huggings …

      The next week the pumpkins had been taken to the courtyard entrance to the property and used as an autumn display.

      Mum is up and down and still has lots of medical appointments for various things.
