This is my latest.... I am keeping it for the party I am doing in October..... I have a feeling it will end up on etsy by the end of the month. I like this tree..... it is pre fall. The leaves still have greens and the greens have turned the slight shade of yellow. I like this time of year, and I really do not mind the rain. I have started walking each morning. Sometimes I walk with a friend, but most of the time I am with just me and my thoughts. I can not help but feel a bit awkward ( I am very uncoordinated my excuse for not taking exercise classes). I even thought that perhaps I would get the old stroller out and put a stuffed animal in it , this way I would at least have a prop ...... my neighbors would be sure to talk however, since both my children are of school age now! Funny how we ( really me) seem to worry about things like this. I guess I will be brave and walk with just me and my thoughts and work on being o.k. with being alone and perhaps tripping..... learn to laugh at me and know that it is o.k. . I think the neighbors will still talk, after all it is the suburbs !

Talk to you soon,

Courtney

Hi Courtney!
The new piece is great! I love all of your little houses.

Walking is my favorite exercise, it clears my mind and makes me sleep better at night. To be honest, I think mentally, it's better to walk alone. That way you have time to think. Us moms need
our "Me" time!
