 Here is the reminder of the money you gave me. The first lawnmower guy only came once; he didn't do that great of a job anyway. In the suburban culture, having a well-cared for lawn is very important. It tells people that the homeowner is a good neighbor, a good person. Your lawn needs water and fertilizer. One thing you could do would be to contact Spring Green; They sent you that card. Plan B to let do it. You would have to buy a spreader and weed any feed fertilizer. You could do it after that. Another thin would be to get a sprinkler. So there are a lot of unwritten rules about being a homeowner-taking care of the lawn is one of them.
