I've continued to mow the lawn in the rain when I was a kid...mostly because I wanted to get it finished. Of course, if it started hailing like that I probably would have kept on mowing just because it was cool.As an adult? I'd have gone in and watched a movie until it ended.
The job needed done.
I wouldn't have let my husband back in the house until the he'd finished. "Are you going weedeat?" I kid. I understand the need to complete the task at hand.
oh dear. That was an admirable attempt at justifying manhaviour ;)
I don't really have anything I can say to that as I have done that very same thing. But in my defence...I am an idiot! :-)
His wife clearly must have told him she wanted the lawn mown. ....or else!!
For some reason, the video didn't show up for me. I just don't mow my lawn...It helps that I rent, and don't have to though...
You seem to 'say' a lot of things in this post. I totally agree though. I might have continued mowing, in hopes that I could just hurry up and get it done and not think about it again for the week.
That's why I use a rubber lawn mower.
Rationalize it any way you want, my friend. Mowing the lawn during a hail storm DOES deserve the stink-eye.
So clearly no comment is really needed on this post since you've basically worked your way through my exact thought process :)But I'm here to say, "Good for you for thinking like a woman!"
Loved your fun ending to this entertaining post. Maybe that guy was just sick of his wife ragging on him about getting the lawn mowed and he just didn't want it to wait another day?! Funny.
I just feel sorry for the guy. Not that he didn't stop but just carried on. Not that it's clearly a stupid thing to do in the cricumstances. just that he was unlucky enough to be cayght on camera doing it.There but for the grace of Dog goes me!{sorry - my fingers are dyslexic}
@Teachin4th You see both sides well.@Munk Exactly.@Summer I can tell you understand.@karen Thank you. @jono Ditto.@Selina Quite possibly.@Underground Dude Sorry. Not sorry you don't have a lawn. That part sounds great.@paul My sentiments too.@HomemakerMan HA! Awesome idea.@DSWS Rationalizing is my middle name.@Sandra You see through BS so well.@Mrs4444 Most likely.@Alistair Too many people with too many cameras eh?
