"Domestically Different"


This morning I knocked on my landlord's door 
to ask her if she needed any help with the yard work... 
Admittedly, it was my passive aggressive-slash subtly polite way to really ask "Hey lady, what's the game-plan to cut the weed field that has sprouted around us?!" 

When she told me that she was still waiting on a landscaping appraisal I decided to use my day off from work, well
working :) 

A quick road trip home to my parents, 
who were kind enough to loan me 
their push mower and blower...

2 hours and 6 bags of grass later
(no, that was not a drug reference)
I may have caught herpes in my nose from all the city dirt, but holy hot damn, I was so super proud of the outcome!

  
Now I'm even more excited to have all my friends over for movies in the park! Aaaand in further awesomeness, my landlord took $100 off my rent for next month as a thanks for my time :)
Not gonna lie, it's been a solid 20 years since I've been given an "allowance" for yard work... North Pond, heeeere I come!
