I would look into whether it would stress the grass to mow now. It may need all its strength to get through the winter without being cut.

My grass guy showed up to mow today - our temps have been in the lower 80s and the grass just keeps growing. When I look out the patio door, I see my hibiscus covered in blooms. They love these milder temps; no blooms in the hottest summer months. This is the most enjoyable time of year around here to do yard work. Once summer heat & humidity sets in, I stay inside.

If you need to do yard work, do yard work. If you want to go to Target, go to Target.
I am so sick of holidays and the overblown perceived importance of them. Mow the lawn if you need to. I would have given no thought to this.
You made me giggle!

I don't do things like that on a holiday. I was brought up where you don't even mow on a Sunday. I do but if I try and do that on a Saturday or when I get off work. My husband will tease me and say if your mom was alive you wouldn't be mowing today. Lol
Where I'm at it is snow country and getting hit today. Snow blowing allowed on a holiday. Lol

My thoughts? I couldn't give a ---- less about my neighbors, even if we all did not live on an acreage. That's what I think of the 2 closest homes to ours. But!!!
It my area it is snowing and a -14° Wind Chill. Needless to say!

I would've done it. (Hope you did.)
Nothing like a well kept lawn--something neighbors should appreciate.
Our mower is battery operated as is the edger--so you can barely hear them. But it's not like you're using a chain saw--right?

What in the world would your neighbors be doing on New Years Day that would be disturbed by mowing your lawn? Everyone I know is inside watching football or at a football game.
