doodle by andre: the balance of power

IN THE LAST INSTALLMENT OF ‘MOWING WITH ANDRE,’ our hero was feeling jealous of the next-door neighbor’s tractor. Apparently things have shifted–or maybe it’s the other neighbor now? All I know, is that Andre Jordan, Master Doodler, has some mower issues. (Who doesn’t?) The evidence to date:

Not so long ago, as I mentioned, Andre was left in the dust by the guy with the tractor, remember?

Then there was that chilling last mow of the year in 2009. Talking about a mowing addiction.

I even recall that he swore he was “sick to death” of mowing (his words). Yup. But as they say in the 12-Step Programs: “Denial isn’t a river in Egypt.”

We’re here for you, Andre.

    Mower envy is a strong and powerful emotion. Good to be on the receiving end.

    Maybe you could “let” him use it to mow YOUR lawn. Now, wouldn’t that be neighborly?

    Welcome, Louise, and thank you for the link! I am still shoveling over here the old way, but it grows wearying, to say the least. See you soon again I hope.
