I can imagine that poor man is up at night and exhausted. I hope the neighbors jump in and help him by cutting his grass. I enjoyed reading this one. Congrats on your winner. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Well. he's almost 50 years younger than his neighbor, so, no, I didn't jump in as it's hard to cut grass when you walk with a cane! Thanks and I'm gad you like it, Sara

Congrats to you LJ and to your neighbor! Things do seem to slide after the birth of a baby. Nicely done!
