Lawn Mowing

I was awakened by kitties clambering over me to tear at the bedroom window blinds to watch Lin mowing the lawn. I pulled the blinds up so they would have a clear view of the action, and boy, were they hilarious! It was like “oooh, big scary machine … oooh, look it’s daddy … oooh, there’s a bird” … just too funny. What was really silly was how whenever he was driving the mini-tractor right in front of the window, Ronin’s head kept bouncing up and down in time to Lin’s head bouncing. Silly kitty.

You want to hear something really silly? While Lin is mowing the yard, Annoying Boy comes over, stands with his hands on his hips, and like some sort of supervisor keeps pointing to where the lawn needs to be mowed yet. Yeah, ’cause without his help, Lin just wouldn’t know how to mow the lawn. I hope his allergies feel all better today, what with all the grass bits floating in the air from all of us mowing all day long. :rolleyes:

I’m not even allergic to grasses, and I’ve been sneezing my head off since the mad rush to mow lawns started this afternoon.

The irises in the back yard are in full bloom. I’ll have to take some pics when the light in better back there (too much shade now), but here’s one that turned out pretty.

I also need to take some photos of that nasty, prickly rose bush in the front yard. It has blooms all over it right now. I could go do that right now, but Annoying Boy is out and about, and I am in no mood to deal with him right now, especially not after watching him being as ass in my front yard just a bit ago. Lin says I just just smile and not be bitchy, because they could make our life a living hell. Well, they ARE making my life a living hell (not being able to step out of my house without being hassled all the time — that’s rather hell-like to me), and we could make their life a living hell too. There’s only one answer to the problem then … a fence. A really tall fence.

I’m feeling so-so. I think I’ll feel better after dinner, but I still feel so weak … like you could poke me with a finger and I’d fall over. I think I’ll go lay down again for a while. Even though I slept all day yesterday, it wasn’t really restful sleep. I feel sooooo tired.
