Lawn Mowing
I knew yesterday morning when I saw some daffodils laying on my back door neighbor's lawn that she would be mowing her yard very soon. When she deadheads her plants, she lets them lay on the grass and then mows over them.
I've been saying that we won't be mowing our lawns for another month yet, but I should just be saying that I won't be mowing anytime real soon. Carolyn mowed her lawn yesterday afternoon while I was weeding my Iris bed.
You know how some people are always a few steps ahead of the others? Well, I'm always a half a mile behind Carolyn! She's working in her yard about 10 hours a day when the weather permits. I sometimes get to spend four hours a day but usually it's even less than that. OK, I'm realizing now that she's probably two miles ahead of me, --but I do what I can. I do enjoy the time I spend outdoors, but I also keep busy in other ways. I have lots of writing to do today.
