The Dance of Lawn-Mowing
No more vibr8ing around the yard with those stinky old gas mowers for me

I'm here to tell you that something absolutely delightful is available to save the day for people with grassy yards: the ELECTRIC LAWNMOWER. I know now it's been available for a number of years, but I have to tell you: I catch on to things very slowly. I've probably noticed people using electric lawnmowers, all over town, and thought maybe they were more than I could afford, and my good ol' gas mower was expensive and still running ok.
But apparently gas mowers are a thing of the past. They pollute the environment, and are a pain to get started. Push mowers have made quite a comeback, and electric mowers are so popular the stores here have a hard time keeping them in stock.
I was reading about a woman with polio in one of the internet forums who hadn't been able to mow her own lawn in years but who still strives to be independent, and she can now mow her own lawn, thanks to her new electric mower.
This year I've been through one hellish experience after another, just trying to arrange for my first lawn mowing to get done. Then a friend of mine told me about her experiences finding and buying an electric mower, and how much better it was to do her yard with an electric mower. She has a large yard, and so do I.
Today I've done some telephone and internet comparison shopping, and found just the right electric lawnmower, IN STOCK, and I plan to go buy one after my office hours are finished today.
On the path of self-improvement, I am happy to have found a way to mow my own lawn and not have to hassle with gas lawn mowers, weed whackers, and the people I always seem to attract to help me with the lawn who end up being toxic for me and for the serenity that I would like to have when spending time at home and out in my yard.
The added bonus is that lawnmowing is great exercise, and hopefully that will be helpful along with the walking that I'm doing and in improving my overall health.
Until next time, wishing you joy.
