Rainy days

Well, here it is, Saturday, and I slept late this morning. Big mistake when I wanted to mow the yard today! It has been raining every day for about a month now. Not all day, but every day!
So I get up and fix breakfast, grits and toast with jelly. Research tire prices while eating and try to decide what tires I'm gonna put on the truck. Finally get off my ass and go out to mow the yard.
I'm working real hard to get my yard back in shape after a costly mistake with Tru-Green lawn services. They just about killed my yard. I have been following the advice of my good friend and neighbor, Tom, in the care of it since firing Tru-Green. It is starting to show signs of improvement too!!!
The last piece of advice he gave me was to raise the height of my blade on the mower. Can't argue with a guy who has the best looking lawn in the hood..So I raise the height on my mower and go to town. I love cutting grass, especially since I have a riding lawn mower. I get 3/4 of the way thru mowing the yard when it starts pouring down rain.... Shit. I wait for an hour and it is still raining, Shit again. It looks as though I am gonna have to wait for tomorrow before I can finish, unless it stops soon...
Note to self, get your lazy ass up earlier and knock it out. It supposed to rain again tomorrow.
Also, tell Madison to leave her key to the truck next time she and Austin go on a road trip....👀
