Woke up to a loud screech and thud this morning.  Looked out the window and the neighbours fence had  all but disappeared.  A van managed to get up onto the sidewalk, between the fence and the lampost on the street (???) then overturned completely into the traffic lane.  I went over (snoopsthat I am) next door and Brenda (Neighbour) and I had a great view.  Fortunately the injuries were minor - the driver managed to crawl out of the open window and the medics were working on her in no time.  Now all Brenda has to do is get a police report so she can have her fence replaced. <br />
<br />
But I do feel old - the firemen were cleaning up the scene and one looked over and said mornin&#39; Ma&#39;am.  I can remember back (ok way back) when he would have asked me for my phone number  :o(<br />
<br />
The sun is out - yeah&#33;  Looks like I can get out in the yard and dig some holes without being knee deep in mud and soggy doggy doody (say that five times real fast lol)&#33;<br />
<br />
Yesterday I bought an Akebia - very interesting plant.  It will go in the &quot;shady&quot; corner to climb on the fence and trellis.<br />
<br />
I&#39;m off again to the &quot;other&quot; garden centre.  Want to get my tomato plants and petunias into the green house.  I buy them small, pot them up into bigger pots and let them grow happily for three more weeks or so.  Then, by the time they are ready to go out in the yard they are healthy and large.  A couple of doese of fish fertilizer - dh gives me the muck from the pond filters - and they should be perfect.<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful day all.
