The Lawn Mower is Alive!

After work last night, I bought some starting fluid for the lawn mower. I opened up the carburetor, sprayed it inside, gave the rope a tug and it started for like 30 seconds. I tried it again, and this time it started for about a minute. I tried it a third time and lo and behold it started for good! I was so excited, I started mowing the lawn in the light rain with my sandals on! We also bought a cordless weed whacker so we won't have to worry about extension cords or gas. I have declared war on our lawn and I am pretty confident I will win. Tonight I have to spread the weed killer and put down some more mulch.

Man, I'm kinda sore and I think it's from playing softball on Sunday. Hopefully I won't hurt for Saturday. I gotta do a few short runs this week and then it's game time. Let's roll!
