Do Not Mow!!!

[texchan]

Given my (continuing) irritation over the fact that our lawn people ruined my yard, my daughter decided to help me out. Yesterday, as I was griping about the whole thing over the phone, she sat down and made a sign for me to hang on the gate -- to let the mowers know they were no longer welcome in my postage stamp-sized yard. Of course, I can't post it because it's absolutely one of my favorite things, ever. She was so sweet and concerned over my feelings, and I love that she wanted to do this to help me. I also love the sign. It made me smile and laugh, changing a bad experience into something more positive. I love that.

Since there is no way I would chance ruining something this precious, I've decided I shall share it with the world! (Or, well, my f-list. =D)

Thanks! I know I'm biased, but I really love it. I laugh every time I see it.

I particularly like how she's nixed the cheerful, smiling gardener right along with the machines.

I know!! That's my favorite part of the whole thing. How he's so smiley and happy ... and yet has a big, ol' STRIKE through him. It's like: Hey, man, I don't care how much you smile. GET OFF MY LAWN!!
