The wind has been cleaning through the night like we're getting ready for a party. Who shall I invite? No need to rake the yard is clean, the driveway swept And to think it all happened while I slept. Too bad it couldn't clean the place next door but even the wind isn't up to that chore... I'm not ready for a tornado. Ida Werrett [This message has been edited by Marchmadness (11-12-2008 02:09 AM).] |

Oh I have a fence and a wall of bougainvillea about ten feet high between me and "the jungle" Can't even see it. Ida |

Oh, Ida, I got a real chuckle out of that! ~ a tornado! lol I know what you mean when nature works with you and does the work for you! I feel like that when it rains overnight and I don't have to water the lawn!  Love to you, my Ida belle.  Linda |

I liked it. Put a smile on my face, which is hard to do in the morning |

Ida - isn't it just grand to have it all cleaned during the night while sleeping... BC |

Delightful, Ida. In my neck of the woods I must be the neighbour because my garden's a mess when I wake up - after the wind. Hmm? I'm pretty much a mess too when I wake up so perhaps like attracts like, yes? Helen |

I'm a mess when I wake up too, Helen and It takes a lot longer to get going than it used to but what can we do but keep trying? Ida |

I'm so pleased that the wind works to your advantage, at least sometimes Ida dear, it usually works in reverse for me. Have a great day my friend. Love Lindsay |

Thanks, Alison but they wouldn't get a word in edgewise at my house. You have to fight for the floor when the family gets together. A boisterous bunch they are. Some how I have a feeling you would fit right in. Hugs. Ida |
