Ruth Pennebaker's work resonates with me and my little life. Her post, Drop That Drill!, reminded me of why I grew up in a 3-bedroom windowless box in the burbs. While my dad does indeed have a few handy mechanical inclinations, mowing the lawn wasn't one of them. 10x10 patios only have a smidge o' weeds to pull (and kids' proximity to the ground is perfect for that particular and safer task...)
I abhor grass. I know some people really love yardwork. I don't understand. And don't try to make me.
If you haven't read Ruth, one of the Fabulous Geezersisters, please do. I was introduced to her blog by Claudine Jalajas (who apparently has been so busy with her new jewelry-making adventure that she's behind on her Life As A Super Mom...)
