Sounds like you may have a Bermuda lawn by the end of summer. Congrats, and welcome to the club.
I got mine the same way last year. I’ve found pushing it along most enjoyable.

Jumping in here (thanks to bb88 suggestion)
I moved in here in 2019. There were two large trees on one half the lawn and the grass was St Aug. Half the yard was full sun and half was full shade. The drought last year demolished the St Aug. I just couldnt keep up with watering it enough. And weeds just took over and choked out a ton of the grass. Also due to the drought, theres old tree roots and stumps that I guess were previously cut and ground up that have started coming to the surface.
I hit the whole yard with celsius a month ago, so all the weeds are dead. and its just grass (st aug and bermuda) and dirt)
I had the two bigs tree cut down a couple weeks ago. So now I've got a full sun yard. But saying the yard is unlevel is an vast understatement. I really need to level the whole thing. And I think its too much to just add masonry sand in the low spots. Theres some bad high spots as well.
So here's what I'm thinking.
-I've got access to a tractor with a rotary tiller on the back.
-Run the tiller over the whole thing and try to level it as best I can
-Get some Hancock LaPrima and hit the yard with it and pray for the best
Thoughts?
