re: Do you still cut your own grass or do you hire it out?

Simple. I ain’t paying $50-$75 a week for somebody to do something I can do. Good exercise also takes me about an hour and a half with a push mower.

I need the exercise so I continue to cut my own.

How do you do it baws?

I keep mowing my own yards and pastures. Although I have a guy making hay on the pastures so I don't have to cut them as often. Also have a AC cab tractor and nice ZTRs. Makes a huge difference.

But I can't bring myself to hire somebody because I can't get over shelling out dollars for something I can do

So you never eat at restaurants? You can cook it yourself.

I used to push mow my 1/2 acre with designs and male it all fancy. Eventually in my mid 30s i came to terms with the fact that people just hold it against you if they think you do things better or are living better than them.

Hired it out 20 years ago.


I like fixing things; I can mend anything but a broken heart.

I like not having to deal with trimming, edging, etc.

Hybrid here - Pay someone to cut the front where everyone passes in the neighborhood. I take care of the back.

I use a zero turn and the only physical part is landscaping maintenance, weed eating, edging and shrub trimming. I’m 73 and still do it myself. I like outdoors even in the heat.

When my kids were little, I mowed the grass.

When I my son was old enough, about 11 or 12, he mowed the grass.

When my son graduated and moved out, now Mexicans mow my grass.

I’ll probably have them come for one more last mow of the season next week before the yard goes dormant until the spring.

Do you sell propane and propane accessories?

Hired out. To my 11 yr old son.
