My snow has melted!

Its anouther cloudy day but the snow in my backyard is gone.... with our help because we kept shoveling the top off and throwing it on the cement patio... But the neighbors is almost gone too. 
   I bought myself a new toy ~ ordered it on QVC (naturally) Its a lawn mower, one that doesn't need gas to go. My husband has one like in the picture plus another one to do the edges... we have a small yard too. I will have the lawn cut with my little push mobile before he gets his out and all gased and oiled I bet. He is trying to figure out what could be wrong with the one I ordered and he only could come up with but it doesn't have a grass catcher. He is right.... maybe I can find one somewhere that will fit it (he thinks I can) I have been wanting this for a few years now and decided to go for it since it was on easy pay and all. I won't have to plug it in or gas it up ever. No recharge of batteries either. It should bring back the good old days (maybe) I forgot if there is anything bad about this type of mower but I will remember I bet as soon as I start using it. What a fun summer this will be and I will get my exercise too.

I love your quote. :) You'll be doing the environment a favor with your new lawnmower. I've wanted to get one of those myself and let my kids take turns cutting the grass. I hope they are not as hard to push as they use to be. But then that could be good if you're wanting exercise.

I have a push mower and if you get the blades sharpened a couple times a year they work great, you use lower back muscles to push though.

That's just what I would do if I had a small yard. Great exercise and environmentally friendly. Oh - and no noise!!!!
