Isn't mowing kinda like women shaving your legs? In that you just don't do it after it drops to a certain temperature outside?
I mean, isn't there a rule that when Mother Nature decides she's going to give you the gift of
Isn't there a freeze rule or something?
There's a freeze rule for shaving my legs.
(Right? ladies? Right? married men?)
Doesn't it ruin the grass if you cut it and then the frost comes and gobbles on your newly exposed grass?
'Cause there should be, there should be a rule.
If there is a rule, please tell my mow happy neighbors. Their mowing is making my yard look as if it hasn't been manicured a day in it's life.
I don't normally play keep up with the Jones', but ya know, I'm new to the neighborhood, I don't want to make a bad impression.
But we've had frost yo. I don't think I should cut my grass. I've retired the lawn mower to its cave for hibernation. I don't want to drag it out...it's kinda mean when I wake it.
(And for those of you that read this entire post thinking gutterlicious thoughts....yeah, me too and I think I love you.)
We've had frost, too. What's up with that? And you made me laugh about the shaving the legs bit as it gets colder! LOL
ReplyDeleteThis is when I am happy to pay the association to take care of the yardwork. I yard work.
ReplyDeleteoh there ain't no freezing on the mowing of my junk overhere, no sireee!
ReplyDeleteCold or no cold, the grass has got to go... and off it goes.
Only difference is that when it's cold it makes it harder because... well they are all stuck up there, all shrunk and tight so yeah... kinda like mother nature frost.. but thank goodness those don't freeze.
But they certainly turn blue.
: )
If there isn't a rule - there ought to be! I hate mowing more than anything on this planet. Maybe you should steal their mower and hide it until next year? :)
ReplyDeleteWe follow that rule, what do you mean there isn't actually a rule? Shhh. *covers ears*
ReplyDeleteI don't mow my own grass. I also don't shave my own legs. That's why I got married. hehehehe
ReplyDeleteall I have to say is hee hee. snicker snicker
ReplyDeleteYep! 2inches is the height for winter lawn
ReplyDeleteKyooty...only 2 inches??? hell.
ReplyDeleteWell it wasn't until you made it.
ReplyDeleteI think you are bad for me. this is two weeks I have come here and realized I am peeved at something too. I need to find happier friends. lol, j/k!
ReplyDeleteWe've had snow so there is no more mowing officially which is nice since I just brought out the snow blower. As for my legs, I must be the only woman who still shaves her legs in the winter. Of course I'm single and always like to be prepared. That might just be my problem come to think of it.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but if you mow now, you can suck up all those leaves without having to actually rake them. Mowing them over is much easier than raking, don't you think??? Wake the mower!
ReplyDeleteOur lawnmower had been stored for weeks now....once it gets cold, I assume grass just does not grow. Now if only the hair on my legs would stop growing in the winter months.....
ReplyDeleteUm, yeah, I totally thought this was headed in a different direction. But I have the same neighbor as you do. He'll mow daily until it snows.
ReplyDeleteAs for the other...I am a shaving slacker in the cold. I'll throw in the towel and do it when I start to worry that my legs rubbing together in my sleep might cause a fire.
Yeah, erm if you mow after it frosts all of your grass will die or something the following year..or something...
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about the grass. Once in a while, a girl needs to relax and let the wild weeds go. This is your time.
ReplyDeleteagreed! i know i dont shave in the winter until my pants start to get snug... lmao!
ReplyDeleteI solved that problem when I moved in thsi house. Actually it solved two problems. I just quit watering the lawn...it ceases to grow. Tha the water bill is lower. See? Two problems solved! I don't worry about the neighbors. I don't think they were going to like me and my mouth anyway)
ReplyDeleteCracking up. =)
ReplyDeleteI don't mow, and I am obsessive about shaving my legs so I have nothing to offer. I will say, though, that I am jealous of women who can go the whole winter without shaving SO the no mowing rule sound good to me.
LOL, Funny post. I agree once frost hits mowing ends. You should ask the neighbor to swing by and cut your lawn too. LMAO.
ReplyDeleteYes... I was awaiting another "Mow" story... but now about the lawn, if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteLet it all grow out. Everywhere.
Hehehehe :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Just be glad you aren't my neighbor. We've kinda fell behind on yard duty this year. But we live in the country with no deed restriction.
ReplyDeleteI so agree with you... I stopped a couple of weeks ago but then last weekend was in the 80's and had to start again! Yuck! Can't wait for the rule.
ReplyDeleteI don't know the exact temp or date but there is a freeze day for mowing, unless there is a wedding or a visit to the gyno.. lol
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up. I admit I am lazy during the winter but I still have to mow because then I feel like a bum...
