My Morning

So for those of you who do not live in a city that employees men to mow yards that are "overgrown" please understand that St. Louis is one of those cities! We have had these friendly old men come once before and it cost us a "reasonable" 95.00 for their services...so today when my babysitter unexpectedly came an hour early and I noticed one of these nice men sitting on their HUGE tractor in my yard, I ran, bra less, screaming, waving my arms, and jumping up in the air trying to get his attention. I did get his attention (miraculously without anything falling out of my tank top) and informed him that I was going to mow the yard right now and asked him to please take his tractor and leave!!! So, my initial thoughts of relaxing and reading with the kids before going to work turned into me mowing the yard and needing to take another shower before rushing off to work....
