This is my post for #freewriters 2515 prompt complain about nothing hosted by
One of the belts broke on our riding lawnmower and the new one came today. To get the new belt on he had to take the entire thing that holds the blades and everything is hooked to from under the mower.
Before putting it all back together, my husband had to take it on a spin around the yard like he was riding a go-cart. Before we could get it put back together a small black cloud appeared over us, and it poured rain so hard that I was soaked before I could get to the front door of our house.
With the rain over and the lawnmower fixed, my husband said he would finish the mowing. The next thing I knew, he opened the front door and was cussing something about the lawnmower and how he is never using it again.... by this point, I was tuning him out because he can complain about nothing but he said something that made me pay attention, the lawnmower was wrecked and wasps. He was mowing by the boat that someone gave us and the wasps swarmed him, he jumped off of the lawnmower but it was still in gear and it ran into the spot that the wasps came out of. he was lucky that he did not get stung.
I was able to put the mower in neutral and my husband tied a rope to the back of it, he is allergic to the wasp stings, with it in neutral we both pulled on the rope and got the mower from under the old boat trailer without either of us getting stung.
