The Point Of The Summer Where Mowing The Lawn Becomes A Hassle And A Pain

I don't have big lawn - front or back - it's pretty manageable.

Yesterday, as I sat in the cool air conditioning looking out at my window I was cursing at the grass.  It needed to be mowed.  It shouldn't come as a surprise to me that the lawn needs mowing.  I do it every 7 to 10 days.  At the beginning of the spring/mowing season I say "This is great!  The outdoors, the smells, the sunshine!"  Now I just grumble and found myself grumbling something about snowblowing and how I would rather be doing that.  ThenI thought to myself, "wait, 3 months from now you'll be pleading to mow."  Ahhh....life in  the mid-west!
