Matt..... why are there bags of lawn waste in your garage?
Well, there's a story.
A "Matt is Getting Old" story.
Before I begin, I suggest that you read this MattChat post first:
It'll give you a little context. There is a connection. Trust me.
So..... on Sunday, I was outside cleaning up the flowerbeds for winter. I was doing a lot of cutting, a lot of raking, a lot of bagging.
As the skies were getting dark, I began to clean-up and realized that my hand clippers were no where to be found.
I looked in the yard.
I looked thru the mulch that I had raked.
I even had daughter #2 come out and help me look.
Nothing.
Then a thought popped into my head.
Is it possible that I scooped up the clippers with the cuttings and bagged them?
Nahhhhh..... surely not. :(
Well, study the picture above very closely.
Do you see something leaning against the bag on the left?
Something that looks like clippers?
My clippers?
Yup, I had bagged them. Found them tonight.
Have I mentioned that I turn 40 in just a couple weeks?
Out for now......
Matt
