I guess I have attending our lawn mowing requirements for many years, it surprises me someone couldn't advise you, but I do know how tedious it is to follow written instructions, when you don't have a personal base to work from, everything, like furnishings are self assemblies these days, thanks for sharing, hilarious! So beautifully written, blessings. Rot
Typo : I was pleased with how the new mower (worked)?

    Thank you for catching the error. I was also pleased with the mini chainsaw. I found out it will not cut skin!
    Some jobs need to be left to others.

You made me smile with this post Mary and your lawn mower is taking quite a battering and churning up your garden too! The loud banging and the flames and smoke are a bit worrying Mary, but it sounds like you mastered it and was in charge of this machine! What a fun post this is, love your humour and your story here, love Dolly x x x

This is hilarious. I can see you struggling to accomplish what I consider to be a man's job, with everything going wrong that possibly could. I think the flames would have discouraged me for life. kay

You know I love you Mary V, but I am befuddled as to why you wrote this piece for public consumption. Is it a true story or comic relief. If you answer the latter I will agree and laugh. If not, I am sorry for your experience. Tom H :-O

    Harvey and I were both born with two left feet and no common sense regarding handyman work. He once put bowling alley wax on the wood stairs, and I tried wallpapering in a arm cast and put the wallpaper with ducks upside down. We called it the deadduck wallpaper.
