Who cuts your grass?
I used to cut our grass but I saw a huge snake and I quit!! Then after a while I decided to give it a try again. This time I ran over a black wasp nest that was in the ground. They came after me and were stinging me as I was stripping my clothes off to get into the house. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall to have seen that happening. I have never attempted to cut the grass since that. My husband has been cutting the grass but he is getting to the point he isn't able. So our son cut it a few times. I wanted to hire a lawn service but my husband assured me he could do it. It hasn't been cut in the back in about a month. The front is kept cut. I doubt the back will be cut again this summer. Who does your yard? Do you?

I have had the same lawn guy for over 20 years. I would never cut my hay field again. It use to take me over 2 hours to mow and edge. Takes him less than 1/2 hour. And I don't have to drag the mower out of my utility room, through the family room and down the stairs to get it outside. I love my lawn guy.

The gardeners...
Never argue with an idiot. It will bring you down to his level and he’ll win because of experience.

Someone who owes me money
Once he has worked off his debt, my 13 y/o will go back to mowing, but for now shes enjoying the break.

I use to though, and would love to, but my riding one quit and it took me 5 hours by push mower to do it once one year.

I mow the back and often one side and on those other occasions, my husband does either one or both sides. I sweat like a pig when I'm finished but I revel in the fact that I've burned lots of calories!!

When my husband isn't deployed, he does it. When he's gone, I have a lawn guy. I can mow the front yard but the back is a steep incline.
