I keep my lawnmower in our shed in the backyard. So I took the lawnmower out and decided to just start mowing. Bout 3 passes before finishing the backyard a downpour hits. Now the front yard still hasnt been mowed and my neighbors have freshly mowed lawns. Should have known to start with the front yard. Now everybody will associate me and my house as trashy. Was gonna start at 7 but didnt wanna wake the neighbors. I wont be making that mistake again either.

Unacceptable. If you were in my HOA, we would move against you.

Always start in the front, and always go down first to show her you care.

Why don’t you just hire people like 98% of the OT does and not have to worry about your lawn looking like a New Iberia haircut?

Sometimes you just gotta mow in the rain, baw. Once i fire my mower up the entire yard is getting cut, no matter what.

Living somewhere where it rains at 10 am in the summer is trashy

It’s true.


Snowflakes do melt in the rain.

Q: How would you like your grass cut, señor?

A: Well, I was thinking of maybe a Dodger Stadium Fade, but I hear this New Iberia thing's taking off...

Make up for it by cutting your lawn like a baseball field next time

I'm going to go both with the grain of the OT and against the grain of the OT and say that having neighbors is trashy.

I'd drink coffee and enjoy the sound of the birds first, then start moving around 9...get it done

You couldn't see that it was about to rain before you started cutting your grass??

Screw the neighbors. If you are up at 7, mow it and be done before the thermometer hits 90.
