The Diary of a Happy Mom: 40 and Beyond

The trials and tribulations of an adventurous modern mom

Changing seasons

Snowy pumpkin

It snowed last night. Today I woke up to a whole world sprinkled in a light dusting of white. It was spectacular. I love the snowy pumpkin as for me it represents the imminent arrival of winter that isn’t too far away. We are still caught in between the seasons of fall and winter. Kind of like my life is feeling right now. Uncertain.

No more words for today’s post. I committed myself to NaBloPoMo and have to post something every day for the entire month of November. It is hard to be under pressure but once again it is freeing to use this space right now for what ever seems to be on my mind. We will see what tomorrow brings.

One more send off sunset from lovely Arizona my second home. My parents have lived there for the past twenty five years and I visit often. Love the hiking, warm sunshine and fiery sunsets. 🌵🌵🌵
Just another beautiful day and sunset in lovely Arizona. Oh I love the sunshine 🌟✨🌟✨
Nothing like taking a rest after a few hours hike in the middle of a desert canyon with seven thundering waterfalls. 🌟✨🌟✨
It has been a little quiet over in my neck of the woods. Normally fall is my favorite season but we have been blanketed in rain and heavy clouds. There hasn’t been much inspiration so I thought I’d share a photo from the early September of a fisherman on my favorite urban lake. ✨✨✨✨
There is something to be said about being on the water. The peace and tranquility of floating in eternal time, letting all your worries float away. A magical feeling.
“And after a long time the boy came back again. "I am sorry, Boy," said the tree, "but I have nothing left to give you- My apples are gone." "My teeth are too weak for apples," said the boy. "My branches are gone," said the tree. "You cannot swing on them-" "I am too old to swing on branches," said the boy. "My trunk is gone," said the tree. "You cannot climb-" "I am too tired to climb," said the boy. "I am sorry," sighed the tree. "I wish that I could give you something... but I have nothing left. I am an old stump. I am sorry..." "I don't need very much now," said the boy, "just a quiet pleace to sit and rest. I am very tired." "Well," said the tree, straightening herself up as much as she could, "well, an old stump is a good for sitting and resting. Come, Boy, sit down. Sit down and rest." And the boy did. And the tree was happy.” -Shel Silverstein, The Giving Tree
