and now of course we know why the small bright plant was put on our window sill.... the neighbors thought we were away! and when we came home they took it away again, and another plant was put on another house window sill when people found no one home there! so all our houses had plants and flowers... i had bought some plants on Saturday evening down at a local nursery, i must have known! a plant up on the balcon had died, due to over watering by mistake! the tubs natural drainage was blocked and it drowned! i fixed the tub but the plant never came back! so new plant for there and i had two deep red... plants... up on the balcon, but Sunday we brought them down at put them on the down stairs window sill.

lots of people had huge plants out side their front doors! massive things, and big ferns, they must have them in inside courtyards i guess! they looked wonderful... and last night out walking pip a makeshift bar was still going strong up the road in celebration of our completed streets...

i seemed to be nothing but cleaning yesterday! and today i am sorting out the tools that seem to come into the house and never get back to their storage cubboard! the gas fire is back in the cave till winter as last! and two gas cans are waiting by the front door for the gas man! i hope he is here on friday? will be the first time in months...

remember the electric bill from Saturday? i took it into the bank to find out why it hadn't been paid, the cashier called Endesa, the electric company, had a brief conversation and told me the bill was nothing! and tore it up! a mistake? great mistake i could so easily have just paid it and would we ever have had the 67€ back? and then on the other hand i will feel troubled until the time of the next bill, when we may well get cut off!!!

my thoughts are with all the people killed, injured and missing in their homes in Italy this morning, couldn't believe it when i saw the devastation on the news this morning, a massive earth quake in L'Aquila...
