Reasons I'm the Crazy Neighbor

I've been super busy lately (and also sick for several days) and I've really fallen behind on my posts.  I'll condense several of the things that I wanted to write about into bullet points.

As many of you already know that I have discovered my "weird" neighbor.  I also wanted to share with you that I am officially the "crazy" neighbor.  If you doubt my frankness, read below.

Reasons I'm the "crazy" neighbor:
  • Last Friday night I mowed my lawn well past dark.
  • The mower ran out of gas while mowing after dark and I had to run down to the gas station to get more gas so I could continue my craziness and annoy my neighbors.
  • I only was able to see long enough to do the back lawn, so in the morning I had to mow the front lawn in between rain drops.
  • Although I stopped mowing around 9 pm, I continued to rake the "hay" that I had made well past 10 pm.
  • I bought a new weed tool and de-dandelioned my entire yard...by hand.
  • I edged my sidewalk by hand using my new weed tool and used the sod I pulled up to re-sod the bare areas where they replaced my water line.  [go ahead and tell me how smart that was]
  • I "weed eated" my entire property on my hands and knees using grass shears.
  • I "mowed" the rough area where they replaced my water line on my hands and knees using grass shears.
  • I have put out ridiculous piles of branches for one person for the last two weeks of trash pick-up.
  • I bought a hand saw and I'm not afraid to use it.
  • There is a city ordinance stating that businesses are no longer allowed to sell me tools with sharp edges.
Any questions?
