Living: the ultimate team sport

Lighten up Mondays

In some places of the world, the weather is improving: snow is melting, the temps are getting a bit warmer, and spring yard cleaning is in the forefront of our minds. Here’s some humor to get you in the mood.

When Phil’s power mower broke down, his wife Kristi kept dropping hints about getting it fixed before the grass got too tall, but the message wasn’t sinking in, and Phil kept putting off the repairs. Finally, she thought of a clever way to make her point. When Phil arrived at home one day, he found her sitting in the grass, clipping it by hand with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. He watched silently for a few minutes, then went into the house. Coming back in a few minutes, he handed her a toothbrush.

“When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the sidewalks.”

A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken.

There’s one good thing about snow, it makes your lawn look as nice as your neighbor’s.

My neighbour Bill asked if he could use my lawnmower.  I told him of course he could, so long as he used it on my property.
