a first

Tonight I went out to cut the grass after work, but first I sharpened the blades on the mower.

May not seem like much, but that is an achievement for me. I'm definitely not the DIY type. I have also counted my fingers, and all are present and correct.

I had to spend quite a lot of time in the garden over the weekend, but it is now rewarding to see it look presentable.

What usually happens now is 3 wet weekends plus one when I'm away, and then I'm right back where I started. Fingers crossed.
