Time for a Brief Commercial Announcement! I do that once in a while, here, when something really unexpectedly great turns up at my house. I mean, everyone has to buy new things once in a while, and you expect it to be “good” and new and working well, and you’re happy your old thing has been replaced.
But once in a while, you just want to share something really outstanding.
Here it is:
One surprisingly wonderful lawnmower! Now, I love my push mower, the old fashioned kind, quiet, non-motorized, efficient, and . . . a good workout.
I liked having a gas-powered mower —
— but every year there are the usual problems: change spark plugs, which are trouble when you don’t; tune-up, trouble when you don’t; gasoline issues; NOISE; and then eventually it gets so hard to start, even when all the other things are taken care of.
A gas-powered lawnmower is so . . . last century!
21st Century —
Son arrived this morning at just the right time to open the box, assemble it, which took very little time and effort ( I could have done it!); charge the battery, which took very little time; and then try it out.
(Sorry for the angle; I was leaving, in a hurry.)
Son gave it his imprimatur. The lawnmower created a smooth, velvety green carpet. It was easy to use, intuitive, and very quiet, about like having a summer fan going.
They’ve been making these battery-operated (cordless) lawnmowers for a while, but I think they’ve got it right now.
Thank you to the company for making this.
Thank you to Son for trying it out and showing me how to use it.
Thank you to Hubbie for his strict financial planning that made it possible for his “little old lady of a wife” to purchase a new lawnmower when it was needed.
Thank you, Our Dear Lord, for watching over me and letting it turn out this way. If even the smallest sparrow is watched over in its little life and death, then how much more are we loved and cared for – in the smallest of details!
Matthew 6:26 – “Behold the birds of the air, for they neither sow, nor do they reap, nor gather into barns: and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not you of much more value than they?”
