Phantom of the mower

[Nosandwich]

So, I have an appointment with a Pulmonologist yesterday at 10:30. I get home, my front lawn is "mysteriously " mowed.

Now, I didn't need anyone to mow my lawn. It was a little bit long, but nothing like some scummies within spitting distance that have nothing but weeds that are a foot tall. I was getting ready to mow mine (trust me, it didn't look bad, maybe 4" of St. Augustine). But it was raining nearly every day, and I wanted to sharpen my blade first, and catch it the second non- rain day.

Sooo, my yard is SCALPED 1" tall, by a dull blade, and no grass catcher. Really hurt my lawn. HEY!!! GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

So what it could have looked like, and what it does now.

Almost looks like someone ran a dethatcher across it.

Lawn service show up at the wrong house?

Nope, found out it was my neighbor's wife. She, of course, thought she was doing a good deed.

Get this: she is a hairdresser. When I talk to her, I'm going to point out the other St. Augustine lawns, and ask her what would happen if she did that to someone's hair!!!!

HE has been a good friend and neighbor for about 40 years, so ,my only option is to make light of it.

Well bust out the fertilizer and sprinkler.

Sprinkler???? Rain every day here. Doesn't need fertilizer, either, just luck.....as long as it survives the shock, it'll bounce back, but it could already be beautiful.

Clearly someone has no idea on how to adjust cutting height on a mower.

I would have been mad! Fortunately it should bounce back in a week or more
