Yesterday, Boyfriend stopped to pick up his dog, I babysit her, and said he had to hurry, my present was coming. PRESENT?????!!!! What is it? Something off craigslist, he says, youre gonna LOVE it. Come to my house after Supper!
I just KNOW this is a treadle. Probaly a Singer, as he sees me drooling over them every time I see one on craigslist. I hurry up and choke down dinner!!!!!!!!!!
Drive to Bf's, just in time to see a guy pulling up with a trailor. Guess what is on it>>????????????
A LAWN MOWER!!!!!!!! A LAWN MOWER?????? This is NOT my treadle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, well, its a riding lawn mower, a John Deere, who doesnt love a Deere, ya know. Its honestly really fun, and nice.....BUT................
LOL, maybe next time????

The classic man--"here's your present, can I play with it?"
Too cute.

LOL, ya....then he tells me, go try it out. Try with my front lawn, LOL!
Okay, its FAST...so I figure I will have more time to quilt now?
