Look at me shine!
Here he is... the new guy at our house.
YAY!
I got to pick him out.
I know ZIP about lawn mowers...
so I drove the poor salesman crazy asking questions.
Naturally I had to pick the model that was not in stock.
The salesman offered to order it and I'd have it on Friday.
I did not want to wait.
He then offered to sell me the next model up (on sale) for the same price.
Cool beans!
Only that one was out of stock too.
So he offered to sell me the floor model.
The man stepped in at this point...
he loves to dicker prices down.
By the time we left with it...
We were paying $100 less than the asking price of the first mower I'd picked...
and had the oil thrown in for free.
Out at the truck, the man smiled.
He had evaded the extra fee for having it assembled too.
We carefully tilted the handle down,
lifted him into the bed and secured him in place.
I love my new mower.
Mr. Mower had served this house for a long time and another house before that.
Its sort of sad to see him go.
Not!
I will not miss his refusal to initiate his power drive feature.
He was a lot like trying to push a mule uphill.

There is one thing left to do...
no, the yard is already mowed...
YAY!
I like to name things.
I did not name Mr. Mower... his former owner did.
What name is appropriate for a lawn mower?
Here are some thoughts:
Cutty
Shredder
Mulchie
What do you think?
Any suggestions?
I'm open.
(Oh for goodness sake... my photo didn't show up with this post!
I had to come back in first thing this A.M.
and add it back in.
Sheesh!
Sorry if you got here before the pic showed up.)
