Yes… he is mowing my lawn. I have not asked him to do this, I have not hinted at it, nor is our grass so long that it should make someone decide to cut it just so their own property value won’t go down. He’s just mowing it. Maybe it’s just me, but that’s kinda weird. Not “sideshow” weird, but more like “what the…” weird. And this isn’t the first time he’s done it either. In fact, the day we move in he mowed it. I thought it was a “welcome to the neighborhood” gesture, but apparently he’s serious about this. I’d venture a guess that he’s mowed my lawn at least a dozen times in the last ~6 months.
At first it made me a little cranky. I mean, it’s my lawn, not his, and I’ll mow it when I’m damned good and ready. But after much consideration and advice from others about it, I have come to terms with the fact that I have a neighbor who likes to see fresh-cut grass and there’s preciousl little I should do about it. And lets face it; I don’t really like mowing anyhow…
I just hope he rakes it all up, too.
