Hi!  Big news – I found someone to help with yardwork!  I thought he was going to start in the spring; however, he’s worked the past 2 weekends and made quite a difference.  He cut up the dead tree that fell in the east forest about 4 years ago.  It will be AWESOME to NOT have to mow around that this summer.
He also trimmed lots of bushes in my mowing path which should cut down on facial and arm scratches!
Plus, when we were talking when he and his son finished….I mentioned the Rhino and yard cart and he said HE could fix them!  Also…tune up the mower.   We aired up the tires on the yard cart and thought that was the problem.  However, I DID manage to bend the frame last fall after all.  I sent them home today because it was too cold; however, I hope we can fix the yard cart.
Also, we went to see ‘Hidden Figures’ last night….great movie.
I just kept asking myself during the entire film….HOW did I not know about this before seeing this movie!!!!!  These ladies were brilliant and were treated like 3rd class citizens for so long….
It was fun to have Friday night plans…I didn’t have time to polish the silver before Mel picked me up, but I did get all the Christmas deco to the basement AND vacuumed the wood floor….I felt very productive.
Today, I woke with a headache, so I’m resting.
Have a good day, everyone!!
Notes: I asked if the yard boy looked like Eva’s from Desperate Housewives. She didn’t find it nearly as funny as I did.
