Mr. Pesky rolled in and then I heard Perry fire up a chain saw. ::cringe::
The lawnmower was buried in a bad spot… one that had yet to get mowed so far this season because I’m too chicken to take the mower over there. Perry had to carve off part of an existing stump to make room for the lawnmower to be pulled out by our hero of the day, Mr. Pesky.
Bring on the rain!
The yard is finished and the mower is back in the garage.
The worst part of yard work here is the ditch. I’m talking about the ditch that the county dug — ignoring my protests. And I did protest!!
It’s a perfect example of taxpayer dollars wasted and extra work for old people.
Last week, we got almost 6 inches of rain in a short amount of time. There was water in the backyard; there was water standing at the edge of Mr. Farmer’s field; but there was NO WATER standing or running in the ditch that Jackson County dug. None.
That “necessary” ditch — forced on us to “keep the road from flooding” — is a constant reminder of how county government can do stupid things that negatively impact the people that live there.
Now you know: Rinsing after brushing increases cavity risk compared to just spitting. Dentists recommend skipping the rinse so fluoride has time to sit on your enamel, remineralize weak spots, and harden the surface against bacteria. Just spit the excess toothpaste out and let it work.
