Okay, it’s almost noon and I am still in my nightgown.
Such a luxury.
Banjo Man is outside weed-whacking the edges of our very long driveway. He is so happy to be cleaning up the place. Daughter Nancy couldn’t get the darn thing started more than once, but it is working now and so far so good.
Not such great news for the lawnmower, though. Despite having it fixed (again) before we left in April, it only worked once and then died. Banjo Man hates it with a passion, so I have been researching lawn mowers and I think there is a trip to Tractor Supply in Banjo Man’s future.
Since it is close to the very disappointing Chinese restaurant, we might have a new mower later this afternoon.
Instead of accomplishing anything truly important, I am here in my office perusing things on my computer. I have ordered a special soap dish for my Humby shampoo and conditioner bars.
I have been mightily tempted to order one of these, but I am resisting. I have one at the lake and it has been great fun so let’s see if I can make do with a round one. The vintage ones are about twice as much on Etsy. Who knew?
As I said, I’ve been researching lawn mowers. The prime candidate is a Troy-Bilt 21″ gas push mower, but the reviews are of the “love it or hate it” variety. Maybe Banjo Man will get lucky this time?
I think he should buy an inexpensive one, because the costly mowers don’t seem to last long, even after expensive repairs. So why bother?
Just a non-mowing woman’s opinion.
Time to get dressed, I think. If you own a lawn mower you love or hate, please let me know. I don’t want to read any more about them.
Enjoy your Sunday.
