Cutting the grass

I decided that we needed to cut our grass this week.  The problem is that we only have a very small amount of grass and we do have a lawn mower but we want to keep the gas tank of the mower empty since we will be moving in a couple months.  So, instead of going to Home Depot and buying a weed-eater, I took my scissors to the front grass.

I'm not crazy.  It does take a little longer than using a lawn mower or weed-eater, and it gives me a blister, but it looks so nice when it's done.  In fact, the owner of the townhome was here this week and she mentioned that she needed to talk to the HOA about our neighbor who hasn't done anything with his grass.

The day after I cut the grass it rained and the grass looks awesome.  The photo above makes the grass look like it is in shock, and I suppose it is.  The rain really helped it look really healthy.

I've also enjoyed the white azalea bush and the cherry blossoms from that shorter tree.  I love Springtime!
