For October 4th my picture was taken just outside my daughter’s back garden. A pile of leaves, all in different shades of brown. There is something beautiful about walking through littered leaves, and the sound they make when you walk over them on a crips Autumn day.

Candy Corn?
This week’s Truthful Tuesday from https://sparksfromacombustiblemind.wordpress.com/2022/10/04/truthful-tuesday-10-4-2022/ and the question is do I like candy corn. I live in the UK, so we don’t really have it. It is only in the last twenty years that we have gone trick or treating. I went with my daughter when she was about ten years old, and alwaysContinue reading “Candy Corn?”
Conkers – Day Three
Day three of my post an autumn picture – Last week, my daughter, husband and granddaughter went hunting for conkers and my daughter took this one to show me when I got home. I still remember collecting conkers ready for having conker fights. The best conkers were probably the ones put in the oven, soContinue reading “Conkers – Day Three”
Spooky Season
I love writing for https://sparksfromacombustiblemind.wordpress.com/2022/10/03/share-your-world-10-3-2022/ because the questions always make me think. This week’s questions are brilliant for October. Favourite horror or Halloween-themed song? Or a song you rarely hear except around a holiday. The Monster Mash, it’s a graveyard smash – It always makes me want to sing the whole song. Although I canContinue reading “Spooky Season”
Made With Love
Written in response to https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/what-do-you-see/ A collection of tools, some handed down from his father, some he collected himself, and some were gifts from loved ones. Christmas, Halloween, or birthdays, and he never brought anything. Handmade with love. A toy rocking horse for his granddaughter, a painted box for his daughter (She collected little pebbles),Continue reading “Made With Love”
October – Autumn Pictures
This is my second picture posted for October. The leaves, still green, but the weather is getting colder. The sky has a beautiful reddish hue, which is rather beautiful. To be honest, I nearly forgot to take the picture. A quiet day did a bit of shopping, and went back home to relax.

Mum
The six-sentence prompt from https://girlieontheedge1.wordpress.com/2022/10/02/maestro-if-you-please-its-a-6/ is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpOtuoHL45Y. They say music helps people, who suffer with Alzheimer’s to remember husbands, wives, or even children they have forgotten. Earphones, gently placed over her greying hair, I hoped this would help her relive something from her past. As always, she glanced at me with a vacant expression, inContinue reading “Mum”
That October Feeling
In October I am going to post one autumn picture a day. For the first it will be a stock image, but from tomorrow, I will take a picture, to show how the colours undergo a transformation. Summer leaves are beautiful, but there is something special about Autumn. Whether it be the crisp air, orContinue reading “That October Feeling”
Shopping
This week from https://mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/2022/10/01/same-same-but-different-saturday-mix-1-october-2022/ is a word list, to create a prose, poem, or a story. Not these words, but synonyms. Looking at her Halloween list, an early start is best . . . Last year all the good stuff Gone. Sales had lost their zest. A pen drawn out of thin air She twistedContinue reading “Shopping”
