So I was supposed to go out today and try and take care of the budding hayfield which is technically meant to be a grass lawn, and of course, the scythe needed a new handle. Which I did not notice at all earlier because I am apparently blind.
Ugh.
There's a neighbor that has a motorized thing but it's noisy and heavy and stinks and it's fussy about blade height and I don't like it. It's unpleasant to use and you don't get the same satisfaction when you're done, either, and I'm pretty sure I can't afford it if it breaks when I'm using it.
So now I have to either wait until my scythe is fixed, or borrow The Monstrosity.
The weather outside is very good right now.
The weather inside my head is thunderstorming.
At least it's just the handle. That's a lot cheaper than replacing the blade.
