Thoughts While Glancing at the Morning Dew

Ahhhhhh Saturday. Time to break out the lawn mower and Flexiril. There's still dew on the grass and the temperature will be in the 90s today. Only about 1/4 of the backyard to go though. Just two small sections. Then I can start all over again. Come on cold weather! I want to hurt my back by waxing the truck again, damn it all, not by mowing the yard! Or installing the replacement garage door opener. Maybe even assembling the new air compressor that is still in the box! Sheesh!



The weed eater is still in pieces on the veranda. Trying to find parts locally has been tough. It may have to be tossed out and replaced. Wow, what a weird tool. Hate it when using it, but long for it when it's not working. I think all gas powered weed eaters should come with a prescription for Flexiril attached to the pull handle. Mowing the yard is bad enough, but the weed eater seems to laugh as the back pain increases. And I bet there's a city ordinance against staking out a goat on a rope. Besides , I've seen Jurassic Park and know what will happen if I start goat staking.




Enough whining. Either gonna have some coffee or take a nap. Later, y'all.
