Sometimes, the most beautiful moments of fall come when we simply stop and look.
Held to the light, this autumn leaf tells a story only the sun can reveal.
A hand holding a bright orange maple leaf up to the sunlight in an autumn forest. The sunlight glows through the leaf, highlighting its veins.
While walking through the forest recently, I picked up a fallen leaf—burnt orange, slightly curled at the edges, and still warm with the memory of summer. I held it up to the sun… and it glowed.
In that light, the leaf transformed. Its veins glowed like tiny rivers of gold. Its colors deepened into fire. All the intricate details—the wear, the specks, the quiet signs of change—stood out with stunning clarity.
That one leaf became a small window into the soul of the season: A moment of beauty. A moment of change. A moment of letting go.

Which one do you prefer? The colored one or the black & white?
Goodmorning pumpkins! I hope you all are doing good this lovely Thursday 🙌🏻
im currently in thr bath, writing this. It’s freaking cold here in Sweden and due to my diabetes, my feelings in feets/toes aren’t the best so before I can put on my warm wool socks I need to warm them up.
Plans for today? Well I went to the Healthcare clinic two days ago, met with a doctor who said I have no virus so I’m not in risk to get anyone else sick.. so I guess im going to school. WITH CAUTION OFCOURSE! Before school im gonna go buy more supplies of mouth mask/ facemasks. It’s starting to go low at home. And I’ll also sit in the way way back in the class.
What else? Well i got one of my packages with camera equipment! Woho. My tripod, few filters and also the hand holder (instead of the big to hang around your neck) but unfortunately that hand/wrist holder was bad because I tried it while sitting at the table and it “broke” so luckily the camera was mounted on to the screws.
I had a photowalk yesterday while the sun was out. Unfortunately it was harsh sunlight and i do not like that. But I managed to fix some pictures though.
not the best quality online though. I’ll upload more on my Instagram and Facebook page. Through my eyes and camera.
Photography for me is my kind of relaxation. Unfortunately I went through some things the other day that made me decide to not take pictures in town and around buildings. I will tell you guys more about that later. It was a sad decision for me but I am still scared and haven’t been able to shake off what happened.
Expanding my equipment for future photography. The other day I bought a camera (not expensive. Pretty good deal for an almost brand new.
I’ve also clicked home some filters a new objective to try, memory cards etc. I only had two 4GB cards so I ordered a 256GB (I think it was) and one 64GB (I think.. lol!)
Meeting, shopping and home to relax. Today has been a very painful day for me. Girls, if you know you know..
After my meeting I went window shopping but ended up at H&M and bought a super soft cardigan. Before I always wore cardigans but I stopped. Don’t know why so now after few years I’m hopefully back to it.
A cardigan for me is timeless, simple yet a clothing item that completes a look. Love it! 💕
I can not wait til the new objective / lens has arrived! It said earlier today that it would arrive tomorrow but now they changed to Friday! Ugh@ the frustration!

I also wait for packages from Shein. But it’s nothing for me unfortunately but for my son. It is his birthday next Saturday (Nov 2nd) and he is obsessed with busses and vehicles. So I hopped on Shein (I’ve been very lucky and is very pleased with my purchases from there) to check for toys in alright prices. Of course I am not hoping that they are at the best quality but a decent type of quality. As long as no tiny parts can come off etc I will be glad.

mixed blog post But hey, it’s me we are talking about. I have a gazzillionnnnn thoughts going on in my head so I apologize for an not “red thread” kind of post. .
wow an other day is over. Today I have been struggling with my emotions. It has been a rough day. Both mentally and emotionally.
The day started by getting my son ready for school and into the schoolbus. After that, I ran to the laundry room (forgot to wash MY clothes lol!) and unfortunately it was taken by I explained and the woman let me use one of the machine and dryer! Thank you neighbor 💕
Meeting with E’s doctor. He has grown but also lost weight which is really good. Yay! Routine check up. Happy. And the doctor was so impressed that E laid all letters in alphabetical order and said the letter. Woho.
School for me afterwards which is where my emotions took over. Out of no where. It’s silly. But anyhow, the teacher told me to skip the rest of the textbook and jump on the last one so here we go.
That pretty much sums up my day (I have been studying as well etc.) So I am so ready to hit the bed. Gonna do some painting on the Happy Color app. Try to calm down a bit before sleep.
it’s been a long long day! Productive but super long. today I actually bought a camera so I can take the photography game to the next level. Well.. maybe better level than the current one.
It is an old model of the camera but it is just one for now til I have relearned the skills, settings etc again and later on can invest in a good camera. So for now it’s a good camera. Almost brand new. Barely used. Objective included but luckily I have some of my old ones left. Now I just need an external adapter SD card reader so I can empty my memory cards (I have like 10 or something). Kinda curious what I have on them 😅
Unfortunately the passion for photography died for me on same time as my parents passed away but slowly I have getting the passion back [there for massive amount of photos on my phone and also some uploaded here and on instagram] which is good because it was a way for me to escape the reality for a while when I had low moments.
So I’m excited to re-do everything I learned, read, tried etc. Luckily I will still have my phone to take photos with as well but gonna try after my skills is back to use camera more. Maybe the quality of photos in the blog gets better? Hm.
My beloved boy. After school. So fascinated of the sign “Din fart” = Your speed. It shows green or red numbers for the speed you are driving. He always stops there and say the letters plus wait a bit for a car to pass by.
Alright today it is.. Monday 21st of October. how insane isn’t that? the October month is soon over. Iam not ready! No no! Let’s keep having October, fall and the beauty for a while. No snow. I dont like snow. lol.
Today i have been doing MASSIVE cleaning at home. I have tossed away so much stuff I can’t even believe it. But most fun part; there is more to declutter and throw away. Mouhaha!
Clean, study, dinner, went and bought the camera, played some games in between the cleaning (pauses) and now iam officially in bed.
Laundry, meetings and school is on the agenda for tomorrow. Hopefully everything will be fine.
So i guess this is goodnight and I apologize that I haven’t blogged today. Kinda crazy day and I’ve helped my sister on game there for I’ve been “playing games”.
