What Happens When you Don't Mow for 3 Weeks?


Well, it depends on the lawn. At home, it probably wouldn't be a huge deal, because our grass isn't that great. Unfortunately, my grandpa's lawn isn't the same. His lawn is incredibly lush. It grows very fast and he has a sizable lawn. Even after only one week it is almost past due for a mow. Why then would I wait for three weeks you may be asking.... well funny story. The riding mower has issues and has been waiting to get fixed. Soo.. not wanting to mow his whole giant lawn with the push mower I have been putting it off. But today it couldn't wait any longer so today I mowed his lawn. 6 hours later... I was finally finished. Okay, I have to admit I took an hour for lunch and I also stopped to take my grandpa to the office. Also, my mom helped me, luckily or I would have been there for another hour! And to be honest it wasn't as treacherous as I thought it would. I got a good workout, the lawn is finally mowed so I can stop worrying about it, I got paid for it, and I got a little tan! So it definitely had its benefits, even though I would still much rather use the riding mower!
I was so enthralled by how long the grass was, that I had to take a few pictures so that I could share!

Also I am pleased to announce that I am writing this post on my new (early) birthday present. My parents are the BEST!!! I love them so much! I don't know what I would do without them.
