Ahhh.......Spring has arrived!

Yes! Spring has finally arrived.  Baseball's are flying, trees are sporting their leaves, temperatures are nice, flowers are blooming and LAWN MOWERS ARE MAKING IT SOUND LIKE A WAR ZONE!!!

Please don't misunderstand me.  I like all these things and realize that the grass must be mowed.   However, I live in an apartment complex that has more grassy areas than most apartment complexes and it requires a professional lawn care company to keep it looking nice.  So, when they show up to tend to the lawn, they come in with a trailer full of all kind on equipment and start their work.  Now, here is the kicker, I live in a building at one end of the complex.  The professional lawn care people arrived before 6 a.m. this morning and parked their trailer just outside my bedroom window.  The crew started up their various equipment and one man worked the large area just outside my bedroom window while the others drove their equipment off to different areas in the complex.  When one would need to gas up their equipment again, they would drive it back to the trailer just outside my bedroom window and fill up.  This has gone on for four and a half hours now.  It sounds like a war zone just outside my bedroom window!!!

Did you miss me?  I took a four hour break between the last paragraph and here.  The noise. The Noise!! was just too much for me to concentrate, so I took a break.  It looks as if the grounds keeper people are finally finished.  I see them loading their equipment back onto their trailer.  So, it looks like that is all over now.  Can I get a Amen?!

And now for a little levity and music.  If you know the words and wish to sing along, it's OK! Go for it!!
