Resurfacing...






Dearest blog readers,

Now how did that happen?! A blog silence so long that even I was beginning to wonder if I would ever find my way back to the gates of Bloglandia. As you can see, I have resurfaced, but only with the help of some recycled photos from previous autumns. My camera lies dormant in its case, and I, I neither lie nor am I dormant very much... Instead, it seems I have boarded life's own speed train, with a ticket that will last at least another few months...

As for you, dear readers, I wish you all the best, hoping you are enjoying many revitalising autumn walks and special moments with friends and family. The season for going a little candle crazy is here, so bring out the hot chocolate and the fluffy throws!

Helena

  1. Sometimes life takes us down a path where we cannot blog...I rarely blogged for an entire year. I have just returned in Aug/Sept. only to realize as much as I love blogging, I also love not blogging! So enjoy whatever train you are on and return only when your heart leads you.

  3. I was just thinking about you yesterday Helena, I hope you have been away because of something good, and I hope your future business will be good too. Take care of yourself. Looking forward to reading what you have to say as and when you are able to blog, we will still be here. xx

  4. Käraste Helena!

    Livet, tiden och allt däremellan leder oss hela tiden in på olika vägar som möjliggör eller försvårar. Hoppas att snabbtåget bromsar in snart. Ibland är det verkligen inte lätt att hitta tid, och då menar jag inte till att blogga - utan till allt... Härligt att få ett 'bloggtecken' från dig :-) Men bloggen och vi finns kvar här. Här börjar minusgraderna smyga sig på. Just nu ligger det en fin frosthinna i trädgården. Fast jag hoppas på plusrika dagar ett tag till ändå.

    Ta hand om dig och stor kram!!
    Charlotte

  7. Hello, Helena

    I was pleased to find a new post from you this morning, but sorry to hear that your life is not nearly as calm as the atmosphere in these beautiful photos.

    Best Wishes in fulfilling the commitments you have over the next few months.

  16. Helena, you have been sorely missed around these here parts of late. I welcome any pictorial gorgeousness you can send my way to ease me into the winter months. The Swenglish Home always has something superbly creative to offer my waning retinas as the sun rays dip in the latter months of the year. I hope that you are well and that family life is keeping you on your toes.

  19. Hej!
    Underbart fina bilder.
    Njut av livet, ta hand om dej själv.
    Bloggen och vi läsare finns kvar.
    Hoppas din arbete går bra, tänk på att en lite paus då och då är bra. Igår satte jag ut en fin gran från skogen och fyllde den med ljus. Det lyser så vackert vid min entré.
    På kvällarna blir det tända ljus och brasa.
    Ett tips! Glöm inte att ta D-vitamin.

  20. Ibland blir det för mycket som ska göras samtidigt, smart att ta paus i bloggandet då. Kram Lena med familj.

    By the way - vi har litet lösa planer på att resa till London nästa sommar - finns det någon möjlighet att vi kan lura med Er till Harry Potter-land???

    Helena, you are truly such a gifted individual. If ever your life is complicated, I don't wonder.....you have so much good energy buzzing around you in your ideas and in your potential. Art is like that. Some days we can catch and form the ideas, and some days (or weeks) we can only see them as they whiz by us. So, we try to follow them to an end we are eventually pleased with. Thank you for your wonderful contributions.

  24. Kära Helena,

    Jag hoppas att livet far varsamt fram med dig och att du hinner både andas och njuta av den stundande julen? Ibland går livet i en högre växel och ibland behövs vi och vår tid på annat och det är så det är. Det är så det måste få vara. Men vi finns kvar här. Det vet du. Så ta du hand om dig ordentligt, njut av julen och skriv och fotografera när tid och lust finns.

    Varm kram
    Lotta
