As a real estate lawyer for 40 years I saw my share of overbearing home and condo owners associations (hence my telling my wife we will never own a condo). I’m sure there are good ones but we lawyers see the bad ones with officious and meddling boards, bordering on plain evil. Think of groups of Mother Gargoyles (what would that collective be called – a Gargle of Gargoyles maybe?) Gladys being her own condo association is particularly hellish but not as bad as if Mom joins in.
This may be the first time EVER that I don’t feel sorry for Brutus! I mean, Gladys could also mow the lawn, but historically it has always been the husband’s job until the kid got old enough. *I am really, really old. Also, for the record, I mowed my own lawn until I became unable to do so. See asterisk above.

Remember the old saying, Gladys: If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself.

Perhaps she could take some time amid her busy schedule of shopping and eating chocolates and do it herself.

If her name is on the deed, she is part of the HOA. That makes her a responsible party too. Wear some sunscreen. It looks like she’d burn quick.

SWMBO – Hey Chip, is Gladys’ middle name Ayesha?

So why doesn’t she do it? She doesn’t work outside the home and is apparently physically able.

Buy her a push mower, and let her mow the lawn. She could use the exercise.
