One of these days I am going to break down and get a new lawn mower. I think a push kind. My back yard isn't very large and a decent push mower would be nice. Cutting it with an electric weed whacker is just not it. The cord is always pulling free and I am always having to take out the roll of cutting twine and get it started again because it doesn't always feed right. Also, of course, it doesn't cut evenly like a mower would. NOt that that matters right now, with nothing but weeds back there and a few sprigs of old grass.

I also raked and swept the driveway and watered what I could reach with the hose. It felt good out there and my leg did not fail me. It is definitely getting better.
