My friends have been organizing a betting pool regarding how long it would take me before I got a lawn service to mow my lawn for me. Well, I think they are all going to be losers (certainly the people that said I would only last 5 minutes...)!
I mowed my lawn tonight for the first time. The lines aren't straight but I missed most of the important stuff (like the poison ivy farm that I am hoping will soon be profitable). And, most importantly, for the most part the grass (read weeds) looks shorter!
Now we won't discuss the fact that I couldn't figure out how to work my gas can or the fact that my mower has an electric start. We will focus on the fact that I faced down the yard and I WON!
I am also about to embark on a fabulous challenge/opportunity. I was asked tonight to act as President of the nonprofit on whose Board I currently sit. I think this is the right opportunity at the right time. I have considerable energy and passion and I would benefit from somewhere to place that energy/passion. Additionally, it has been a while since I have taken a leadership role like this and I am feeling that it is time. It was incredibly flattering to be asked and I am dedicated to fulfill this role well.
So, dear readers, take care. I'll be researching how long it takes for poison ivy to start itching...
