I would like to share with you a garden care tip. It’s best to mow your lawn before it rains. Dry grass cuts more evenly, prevents mower clogging, and helps avoid soil ruts or fungal problems that often occur when mowing wet ground. When grass becomes damp, the blades grow heavy and tend to bend or stick together, leading to uneven or torn cuts. Mowing before rainfall also allows the lawn to recover more quickly with the natural moisture that follows. If rain comes first, wait at least 24 hours, or until the grass and soil are completely dry, before mowing again.
Let the chuckles begin! Our featured joke today is called “Saint Peter’s Spreadsheet Surprise.”
A lawyer passes away and goes to Heaven. He says to Saint Peter:
“This must be a mistake! I’m too young to die. I’m only 50-years-young.”
“Fifty? According to our calculations, you’re 82 years of age.”
“How’d you get that?”
“We added up your billable hours.”
?!
