It Went Well
Dennis and I tag teamed today and our original acre was done by 1:30. It goes very well with the two of us working together. We have a lot called the “Clark Lot.” In times past it had a home and a detached car and a half garage. The home had a serious fire and we purchased it . . . took down the house and called it ours. It is 100′ x 150″. That is my lot to mow with the zero-turn. To the northeast of Clark is a 75″ x 75″ that we purchased on a tax forfeit sale. Dennis mows that with the Sear’s rider plus our original lot of 50″ x 260″.
With all the rain, mowing once a week is pushing it. A side-rake could be used.
Dennis has the mowers all tuned up for tomorrow. Tomorrow the blue barn acre will be mowed. My area is the east half from north to south. There are two deep holes that I have earmarked to avoid.
Dennis used to do it all by himself and when he pushed it, all in one day. That was unacceptable to me. I maybe can’t walk a straight line but I can surely sit on a mower to help out. I believe with me helping he is afraid I will over-do it, so it is now broken down to two days. Why Not!
Our supper is “raid the refrigerator.” Some hamburger pasta and cold macaroni salad is enough for a half of a beef sandwich, pickled beets and bread, butter and peach jam. Dennis also enjoys a glass of orange juice with his meals. There will also be sugar free Mott’s apple sauce in a small sealed plastic cup for each of us. Tomorrow we start fresh. Neither of us waste much.
I did do some sewing on the quilt top in between time. Getting six strips sewn of four blocks each allows me to know I have kept them in the correct order. There will be quite a bit of pressing before strips are sewn together.
With that I take my leave. ♥
