In Canada, people love Friday because most people dont work on Saturday. But, for people with a yard, they cant relax all the time, because having a yard is a lot of work. There are many chores to do. Have you mowed the lawn before? Do you think youd like it? Or, do you need more time for yourself? A: T.G.I.F.! Are you looking forward to the weekend? B: Not really. I have to do a lot of yard work. A: For instance? B: Well, Ive got to mow the lawn. The grass is getting long. Ill do that on Saturday. Its probably not going to rain on Friday or Saturday. A: How long will that take? B: Its a big yard and my lawnmower is old, so itll probably take over an hour. Itll probably not take less than an hour and a half. A: Whatll you do after that? B: After I cut the grass, Ill probably rake the lawn. I have to rake up the clippings. Thats not likely going to take long. A: Great. So, after that, youll be exhausted. You can relax! B: Before I relax, Ill paint the fence. My honey keeps nagging me to do that. A: Thatll no doubt take awhile, right? Thats a big job. B: Yes, and while the paint is drying, Ill tidy up the garden. I need to pluck off dead roses, pull weeds and spray insecticide. |
