Push mowing the grass

I know i should start at the begining but i will start from this week then catch up. Monday I had the bright idea of cutting the grass with the brand new push mower we got. This pic shows the back corner and a small part of what needed to be cut. I started around 8am after all the kids left for school. I didn't think it would take me long. Boy was i wrong. Because it was so long it was wet. So after going down and back i had to empty the mulch bag. That was so much fun. I know all our neighbors thought i was nuts. I finally quit about 3:30 when the kids came home from school plus i ran out of bags. I can honestly say we have the nicest neighbors. Since i was outside working hard all day she brought over a bunt cake. It was delicious. Since it has been raining on & off all week i haven't gotten to finish mowing yet...lol
