Weird but nice

Weird event, turned out nice.

After lunch, without warning, somebody started mowing my back yard. I thought maybe she was a neighbor, so I was feeling guilty and somewhat trespassed. After she finished she walked back to her parked car, so I knew she wasn’t a neighbor.

I went over, handed her $60 and thanked her, then talked with her. Turns out she was NOT under orders from the neighbors or the city. She was supposed to be mowing a different house with a similar address. I pointed her toward the correct house, she apologized and I told her she did a hell of a lot better job than I would have done.

I was going to mow it tomorrow; now I don’t have to do it!

Next day on my morning walk I checked out the house she was supposed to mow. It’s newly vacant but doesn’t have a For Sale sign yet, which explains why she was thinking my house was vacant. Sure enough, she did the same thorough job there, so I know she wasn’t just making up an address for some reason.
