Pretty sad when you can't perform routine maintenance on a lawn
mower.

Funny. The lady across the street has a John Deere riding mower. She
does all her own maintenance, including sharpening the blades, etc.
Her
husband has somehow gotten totally out of the yardwork arena. I've
never
seen him lift a finger to do anything in the yard. I'll go over and
blow
her leaves for her, and he won't even say 'thanks'. Alcohol does
play a role.

My father in law is 94 years old and he still sharpens his own mower
blades. He drops the deck at least once a month in season, hoses it
out, sharpens the blades and lubes everything.


Me, I j ust pay the mow and blow guy monthly.


How many times a month does your lawn need mowing in growing season?
Mine needs a weekly mow from the end of April through the middle of
November. Guy down the street has a crew hit his weekly, runs him $75
a cut, or it did a couple of years ago.


Is that when he stopped talking to you?
