Fast forward 10 years, and now that we have our own house and our own yard... I still don't have to do it because I have a husband! But, since he's been so busy studying lately, I thought I'd mow the lawn for him this one and only time since this past week has been chaotic for him... or at least I'd attempt to. So, I called my neighbor, Michelle, and told her that if I couldn't figure out how to start the mower, I would need her to come and help me. She laughed at me, and before hanging up the phone I told her no taking pictures and no standing at her patio door laughing at me! When all is said and done.... I mowed our lawn in less than an hour with a lawn mower that is NOT self-propelled! Woo hoo!! My dad would be proud. After taking a much needed shower, I sat down at my computer when I noticed an email from Michelle saying, "I couldn't resist :)" with this attached to it....
revenge is sweet, Michelle!
Below: Michelle titled this picture, "Still mowing"... did I mention that I finished in under an hour!?

Don't feel too bad...I've never used a push mower. I've only mowed once and that was when I lived at home and used the "riding lawnmower" many years ago!
HAHAHA! Obviously you didn't grow up in my household, lawn mowing was/is my job (for the most part) THANK GOODNESS we only have a little yard. I am IMPRESSED that you mowed that whole yard with a push mower. And I have to say you look really cute doing it :)
good job! i'll give you a pat on the back for that one! i am shocked that you haven't had to do it before, but i have one thing to say- the joys of home ownership!
