Mrs. Neighbor Lady aka What's with all the Dogs?

July 9, 11:00 AM

Just got done mowing the lot across the street for the third time this month…right on schedule. While mowing, I was thinking deep and inspiring thoughts about my future and such, when Mrs. Neighbor Lady aka Dog Women comes up out of nowhere and starts talking. She informs me that since she has just gotten yet another dog, that she can’t keep track of where they’re pooing on the property and if I would be so kind as to mow around it when I find it so that she could pick it up. Ah, yes, of course I say with a nod of understanding while looking around for a possible escape. Oh, and if I were to step in it, Mrs. Neighbor Lady says, she would be happy to clean my trainers for me. Right.
