I Am A Lucky Lady!

As most of you know the move has been completed.

Along with the move some adjustment are being made.

One is...I have never had to take care of a lawn...NEVER! In my 42 years, yard work has never been a part of the essence of ME. So the thought of maintaining a lawn was a little overwhelming. A voluntary entrapment behind a motorized machine that produced heat and fumes along with the wonderful southern 90 degree days was not appealing.

Please don't misunderstand me...I LOVE the summer...at the pool or ocean side.

I am a very lucky lady!

This is my oldest son, Big T!

Along with working nights at UPS and school a few days a weeks, he mows lawns as a side job.

When he was helping me move he informed me that he would take care of the lawn.

Another amazing kid I have!

Side note:

I live on a street with several other single mothers and I notice that about three of them had a need to go outside while he was mowing. I didn't think much of it at the time but when he was loading the trailer back up with his equipment one of Little M friends (around 10) spilled the beans on her mother.

"My Mom said your yard guy was hot"

I just smiled and said "oh that's my oldest son"

A strange look came across that little girls face and all she said was "Oh, really? Your son?"

"Yep"

I think she may have been a little grossed out by the fact that Mom was hot for her friends brother. :)

Of course I found tremendous humor in this...and had to share with Big T. Being male he was very amused and flattered that a Mom thought he was hot lol.

Good to know that your son cares enough to do that on his own accord.

Hope things are going well in the new house!
