mowing the grass
Posted: Sun Sep 04, 2011 3:39 pm
A man went by the hospital to see a friend. He found him in a bed with his leg in traction.
"Wow", he said, "what happened?"
His buddy said, "Well, my lawn mower was broken for a couple of weeks and the grass was getting a bit high. My wife was dropping hints that I should get the mower fixed and mow the lawn, but I always had better things to do. You know, like watch football, play golf, make beer, that sorta thing."
"Yesterday evening I got home and she was sitting in the grass with a pair of sewing sissors clipping the grass a bit at a time. I just watched her for a bit, then went in to get a toothbrush, thinking how funny she was trying to shame me into fixing the mower. When I gave her the toothbrush, she wanted to know what it was for, and I told her.......when you get through with the lawn you might wanna sweep the driveway. My doctor says I will walk again in few months, but I will always have a limp."
