Anytime is ok if you dont have neighbors. If you have neighbors its better to hold off a bit especially if they are elderly or very young.

Mostly the grass is too wet to mow before 7, and it can be way too hot to mow after noon. I sometimes mow late in the afternoon when shade exists.

We live in an area with lots of houses around. We try to wait until at least 8 am, but no later than that or we will be out in the heat of the day cutting our 2 acres...

I think by 7, most people are up getting dressed for a new workday.

I wish I did but a good quality emerald is so expensive. Yes, there are "created" emeralds, but unlike diamonds which look great, the created emeralds do not.

To continue my story (this is 3/3), I was very envious when one of my best friends got faux emeralds for her birthday and wore them first. However, I was happy to wear mine anyway. My friends bulled me because I was a "copycat" even tho they all knew I had received mine first. #meangirls!

My parents got me faux emeralds as my first pair of pierced earings and I looked at them in the box until my mom could find the "self-piercing" rings that slowly worked into your ear over a couple of weeks. When I proudly wore my birthstone earings to school my best friends bullied.

My birthstone is Amethyst. I like it. I like the color. But one, I prefer Emeralds. And two, I don't wear jewelry anymore.

No, I have no rubies, and I wept mock tears for my husband's benefit answering this.
