Guys With No Names

For most, the most wonderful time of the year is Christmas time. For me, it's
now. I am one who truly enjoys planting flowers and having my deck look and
smell beautiful! I also like the front of my house to have that curb appeal that
so many speak of, you know, pretty flowers, grass mowed, trimmed, blown etc. I
say this and I mean it, except the thought of using a lawn mower makes me
cringe! The mere thought of pulling the pull cord to start it while throwing out
my back does not make for a fun afternoon for this lady! My husband tells me
it's great excercise, really?, well I'll watch you burn a few calories! I can't
think of one thing that would MOWtivate me to push a lawnmower! Planting alone
requires a lot of water, who needs more in the form of perspiration by pushing a
mower back and forth, I wouldn't walk a picket line for the same reason! I get
all of the excercise I need just getting dressed each morning! You know, the two
hundred squats to stretch out the jeans, the pulling on the zipper to get said
jeans on in the first place, who needs more by mowing the lawn? Well ours was
getting fairly tall, not quite snake tall, but, enough that it could use a good
cut, when my husband suggested I call The Grass Guy! I burst out laughing at
this suggestion and he told me no, that would be the ice cream man!! Who exactly
is the grass guy I asked? I saw his truck at our neighbors last week, ask her,
and so I did and he came as promised. The grass guy is awesome, he has my yard
looking great while I'm busy on my deck planting flowers, he even blows all of
the dirt I manage to drop on the deck, we make a perfect blooming couple that
grass guy and me! I'm told at all costs you must love what you do, I do, I love
planting and playing in the dirt, The Grass Guy does too, he loves mowing,
trimming, weeding, mulching, and it shows. Want a Pepsi, I scream out, no, I've
got water, don't get dehydrated I scream back. You have on sunscreen? The mother
in me can't help myself. I do he tells me. What's his name my husband asked, how
do I know I replied, he's The Grass Guy to me. Dependable, reliable, inexpensive
what more could one want? Well, besides the pool guy and cabana boy?, I'm
supporting a local business, I think all of the Bowie Patch Readers should as
well. Look him up on Facebook, become his friend, become his customer, tell him
his Jewish mother sent you!

For those of you not local, I hope you love your Grass Guy as much as I do mine, does yours have a name?
