Actually, it helps to know the push mower might not be fully functional. I was feeling pretty inept at the difficulty I was having getting it to cut the grass. The neighbor had mowed his lawn the day before with a push mower and he didn't seem to be leaning into it and having to go over spots three times to get the grass down. I thought it was perhaps because the grass was so long to start with, but dull blades may have been a major factor too. I suppose I shouldn't be so intimidated by the power mower, but I hate starting up mowers with pull cords and I'm not even sure how to use the choke.
I'm watching an item on eBay so I have to come home around 1 pm to be there at the close as there is only one other person bidding, but they are right on my tail. It is a copy of the Rodgers and Hammerstein Cinderella video that is out of print and has been impossible to find for under $65 or more. I haven't rebid since yesterday evening as I don't want to drive the bidding price up unnecessarily. I'll wait til just before bidding closes to increase the bid and hope the other person doesn't do the same, or at least that I'm lucky enough to get in the last one.
I'm so happy - I won my eBay bid! I am getting my video for $18.49 including shipping. I have wanted a copy of this for so long!
