Ways to tell your grass is too long

After spending three hours cutting the grass on Saturday, I devised this handy list to help determine when it next needs to be cut. And being the helpful soul that I am, I now share it with you.

Top Ten Ways to Tell Your Lawn is Too Long
  • You don't need a weather vane, you just watch the grass waving in the wind.
  • Your kids are outside playing. You can hear them. You cannot see them.
  • Your cat has learned to walk on his hind legs so he can see where he's going.
  • The local farmer offers to lend you his combine harvester.
  • On your way to the mailbox, you run into a man with a pith helmet and a machete.
  • You get a notice in the mail that your property is now a wildlife preserve for endangered insects.
  • You know you had a shed out there... somewhere.
  • You could take down your privacy fence and no one would notice.
  • The neighborhood kids are seen daring each other to go into your yard.
  • Your lawn mower takes one look at the grass and breaks down.
Hope this helps!
