A Letter from a Groomer

Dear Grower,

Hey!  After talking to you last night, I realized some things.  :-)

I need to stop putting off my yard!  It's overwhelming and very challenging, but I can do it.  Afterall, I like challenges.

I can learn more about my yard and just suck it up and go do it.  I mean, I do like doing some of it...I just gotta make time to do it.  Time is money.  If i make time to do my yard then I will save money from hiring you to do it.  I know that doesn't sound fair to you right now, but hear me out.

I am more than capable of doing my own yard!  I watched a video this morning on Facebook of this man in Africa (I think it was Africa) who made wooden stools with his feet.  Yes, he makes them all with his feet because he cannot use hands anymore.  He doesn't have use of his upper limbs.  He makes these stools (with his feet) and sells them to make a living.  I really have no more excuses when you think about it.

Last night when we spoke about the yard, you told me you thought i was a rad chic!  Today, as I look at my yard, I don't feel so rad.  I feel lazy!  To own a home means responsibilities.  Some folks can afford to hire help, but I really can't.  So why?  I need to suck it up and make time for my yard instead of always putting it off.  I'm gonna own this yard instead of being a victim to it!

I'm so glad you came out here to look at the yard and talk to me.  It was actually a nice visit as we talked about sooo many different things.  We also have a lot in common.

I'm so sorry I wasted your Friday evening!  I'm also sorry that you will not be getting this job now. I hope you are not angry at me, but instead are glad that our talk made an impression on me.

Sincerely,

The Groomer
