I've always felt weird paying someone else to more my yard. Like, that is just part of home ownership. I do presently pay someone to do so, but that's just because I'm in a wheelchair and my missing leg seems to be the one all the riding mowers need to operate 😓

@ViciDraco sorry to hear about that! But I'm glad you can afford to pay someone to do it for you.

When/how did you lose your leg?

@Mindful bone cancer in my hip about twelve years ago now.

@ViciDraco crazy! Sorry to hear about it.:-(

@Oneofthestormboys I'm always impressed by people who mow their own lawns!

@Mindful yeah we had a brick house on an acer and sold it and bough .60 acres of woods 😬 it's a narrow slope going down to a creek.. we have a tiny/shed house now but we own it now vs the 24 years left on our former mortgage

@GoFish wow! Sounds like a great deal!!

@Mindful yeah it's nice not having to pay for anything anymore lol i just miss the open space we used to have at our former 3 bedroom house as this one has zero.. (bedrooms) it's just all one room aside from the bathroom. ah well tho ..

It is a tremendous day outside. Here in California we see high temperatures and the mosquitoes make a meal out of me too. Thank God I am not allergic 😄

@JoyfulSilence beautiful! Now get to it! Ha ha

We can afford to pay someone,but i choose to do it myself for the same reason,some excercise and some satisfaction,it takes hours to cut and trim,so it makes me feel good when i see how good it looks when im done. :)

@Ramrod yeah, I'm proud of the work my hubby does! Glad you are also well enough to do the work!!!
