Both our dreams are coming true here. Anthony's fence is about 3/4 of the way completed. And this is NOT a rushed project. My husband really has taken his time on this fence in getting it right - I'm so proud of him.
Meanwhile, I finally got a veggie garden started. I'm so exhausted, I can't find anything funny to say. Other than what I posted on FB the other day about the woman across the street taunting me (please refer to Facebook as I'm too tired to repeat). What I feel the need to report, however is two amazing things. One, I've been collecting rainwater off the chicken coop in the $4 giant Walmart tupperware I used as a brooder for the chicks. Wondering how to actually use it, I remember my dad telling me not to leave the hose in the horse trough growing up as it will create a suction and empty the thing that I just took the time to fill. Hmm. So I stuck one end of the (found) hose into the disgusting water by the coop, noting the land slopes down to the garden. Water started SHOOTING, yes, like with pressure, through the end I was holding by the garden. This was miraculous (science really) and made me sooooo happy. No expensive rain barrel system for me. The other amazing thing that happened, was that shortly after the water thing, I remarked to Anth how cool FB would think this was. And....after I returned later in the afternoon from the mega-hardware store, there was The van in the drive. So, all in all a wonderful Sunday. Hope everyone else had as incredible a weekend as me. As they say here in the south, I'm just BLESSED. And I actually can say that with sincerity. Mostly.
