I knew you’d love it, Billie!

I seriously have a man coming today and I keep watching the clock. Thought he’d be here by 8:00 but he will come! (I hope as I would be disappointed in him.)

He is a real cute young man, he’s family. My son talked to him as he is my son’s wife’s brother. He is at all our get togethers. He is very nice. He was laid off at Bristol Compressers, where my son is a supervisor. And when they called Tony back he didn’t want to go back. So he organized him a little yard service and stays busy all the time.

I have a lot of weeding and trimming for him to do. I am lucky that my two sons take turns mowing for me to save me money. I thank my lucky stars.

I do hope your 'yard man' got there and did all the chores you wanted him to do. I think that people that have yard services do really well - especially in areas that have long growing seasons.

I really, really, really do not like yard work, and we have so much to mow & take care of besides the real yard that we do have that done by a regular yard crew. It only takes them about 30 minutes! I tried it one time, and with all the flower bed edging and curbs and the front walk, it took me over 6 hours. I HATE YARDWORK! LOL But I do take care of a small courtyard that has just a little bit of grass (not even enough for a mower - can trim it with an 'edger/trimmer) - it's mostly concrete, brick, ground cover and pots of flowers. My hubby takes care of everything else.
