| Forest in Tuscany. |
Finally some minutes for me !!!
It is more than one moth I don’t write any post.
It was because I had have too much work in the office!
From the beginning of Septembe till now, I have gone there very early in the morning until the afternoon, then, as all women, I have to take care of my family and home….. I am very tired ….. During this time almost 8 weeks, I was unable to take care of my vegetables and flowers in my garden.

Also I was unable to read my books as I would have like to do!
However, now the situation is getting better and I have some more time for me, so I could go to the forest yesterday for a walk and also to harvest some mushrooms (we collected almost 10 kgs.) .
I always mention the beauty of autumn in Tuscany
The only bad feeling ?? Many hunters ! They send me into a very sadness condition.
