Lawnmower history…and now – Blogging Away Debt Blogging Away Debt

This popped up on my Facebook memories a few days ago and I thought it was worth the share. Me hating the heat is not new. Me struggling with my lawnmowers is not new. Me hating to cut grass in the heat with lawnmowers that are so hard to start and maintain is not new.

Of course, the Hope powered lawnmower while great in theory, did not last long either. Well, mechanically it did, but ugh, it was so hard to cut with it.

I am loving the new electric lawnmower. One charge cuts the entire yard. It is self-propelled so easier to push. And starts with a button push versus me wrestling with and ultimately breaking the pull strings on my old gas mowers.

Don’t get me wrong, I still despise cutting the grass especially with how hot it’s been. But I love a fresh cut yard. Makes me so proud.

But I am definitely ready for the weather to cool off. And then for the grass to stop growing for the season…just a few more months.

Thankfully my new lawnmower is really, really quiet. So mowing in the wee hours of the morning before the crazy hit ticks up has been possible without disturbing my neighbors.

I am so glad I bit the bullet and purchase an electric, self-propelled lawn mower. If you have to do something you don’t really want to do, buying the right and best tools for it makes a huge difference.

And when grass cutting season is over, it will hang neatly, out of the way in my utility closet.

Just thought I’d give you an update on that money spend from a couple of months ago.
