To my darling husband,

Before you return from your FISHING trip I just want to let  you know about the small  accident I had with the pick up truck when I turned into the driveway.

Fortunately not too bad and I  really didn't get hurt, so please don't worry too much about me.

I was coming home from Sylvia Park and when I turned into the driveway I accidentally pushed down on the accelerator instead of the brake.

The garage door is slightly  bent but the pick up fortunately came to a halt when it bumped into your car.

Susan notes: Maxine, the star of Hallmark's Crabby Road series of cards and products, is the invention of Hallmark artist John Wagner, who 
says she was inspired by his mother,
 his maiden aunts and his grandmother. I think there may be a little bit of the outspoken, acerbic Maxine in all of us... ;)
