I mow mine most of the time b/c I enjoy yard work and I am arround to do it. How about you?

Sometimes I do it, sometimes DH and sometimes we hire somebody. Can't say I have any great love for yard work, so I'd be just as happy to hire somebody every single time if I could!

Usually my husband, but I've done it a few times when I'm bored.

His job is mowing, mine is pruning. Thankfully, pruning needs to be done a lot less! (But when it needs to be done, it's a huge job).

While I do a lot of work in the flower beds and with the shrubs, the lawn crew mows. Someone we know was mowing and by mistake, got his toes caught in the blades. My dh would not allow anyone in our family to mow because of that.

Me it's cheaper this way, and though doesn't look proffesional, atleast it's a way to excercise Razz

My dh has hayfever so I have to do it. But he has to start the motor for me. Theres not too much grass though.

Usually DH. Sometimes me. Dh likes doing it, he is a perfectionist and likes the lawn and yard to look perfect.

We're slowly but surely pulling up the meadow in our backyard and making a garden. We haven't cut the grass yet- but we pull out the ones that are too long.

Funny you mantion a goat. I was actually thinking about getting one to clear some awful ground cover that has totally taken over the yard. I just want a small pigmy goat and only a female. They don't stink!
