Trying to find a time to get the lawn mowed

I've been trying for 15 days to get the dang lawn mowed and this is what happens EVERY single time I'm home and it's not night time already. This suddenly started the moment I took the mower out of the garage. Geeze!



Yesterday I was extremely exhausted after a night shift and some kids came to the door, obviously noticing the length of the lawn, and the offered to mow it for 10 bucks. I agreed. I still can't believe that I paid some kids to mow my lawn! How pathetic, but I was so tired and it desperately needed to be done. Since I don't yet own a trimmer, they got off the hook and only had to mow. Oh well -- it still looks much better than it used to.
