We have been living in somewhat of a jungle. Our lawnmower's transmission went out about 4 weeks ago and it's been in the shop. They told us it would take 7 to 10 days to fix, but here we are 3 weeks later and no lawnmower. Our grass was so long and I truly felt like the white trash neighbors. We live in a cul-de-sac and our neighbor's yards are so beautiful and then there was ours. Maybe since I have to look at it everyday while I am home or maybe because it is just how I am, I couldn't stand it any longer. It was really getting on my nerves when grass would blow in the breeze and would touch my shins. YUCK!!! Well, our wonderful friends and neighbors, Sarah and Jake, let me borrow their lawnmower. Oh yes, I finally feel normal again. Just look at the before and after pictures. It did take me 4 hours to mow it between kids and mowing down a jungle of grass/weeds, but I no longer feel like I am going to lose my kids in the backyard.
