You may have read my post a while back where I just wanted to give up, which was facilitated by the mower not working. It had just stopped on me. I think I also said that maybe it was for the best. What I didn't write was that I was very hot and my heart was racing. After I stopped trying to fix it I began pulling weeds and I got really light-headed. So I stopped and went inside.
A couple days after that I just felt drawn to try to fix the mower again and I felt like I was led to the exact thing I needed to do. I had no idea there was a compartment with a filter in it but I found it, figured out that it opened, and was led to pull out and dust off the filter. Voila- it started. I had only a bit more grass to cut to be finished. I finished it with a lot less sweating, etc.
That mower has stopped on me 2 other times and each time it has been when I was saying to myself that I should probably stop before I have a stroke or heart attack. "But I just have a littler more to go!!" (I do the same thing when I exercise- I just what to keep going.) Boom the thing stops. I am not making this up. I laughed so hard yesterday when I came to this realization. I was going to try to finish the backyard, but full disclosure- after the mower stopped I got so light-headed that I actually went out front in case I fainted so someone might see me.lol Did the mower know this!?? lol
I love my mower!~! It was given to me, free, by a nice man. While I haven't yet met the man who serviced the mower, I've been told he is a sweet, wise older man. Maybe he added a nice charm to the mower, or maybe my guardian angels are involved. I've got a little bit more to cut so out I go and it'll be a breeze.
Crazy? Maybe- but it's fun believing. Alli and Nick, I hope you guys can have fun with the dull things in life. Makes it so much easier.
Luv ya,
