Then he jacked up his back. Now its my chore &amp; I hate it. I have horrible allergies and always have to wear a mask when I mow or do yard work. If he could he would do it all, I know he would. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730809 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 21:38:46 +0000 Running Elley 730809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH does! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730802 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 21:36:40 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 730802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both do, but I always volunteer to because I love it!

I totally find it relaxing... although it is funny when I'm pregnant out mowing the lawn and DH is sitting down with a beer. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730715 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 21:14:32 +0000 blackbird 730715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH. When I lived alone, I hired gardeners. I hate yard work. If I wasn't married, having this house taught me that I am better suited for condo living :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730595 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 20:35:34 +0000 matador84 730595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally dhs job but I don't mind yard work like gardening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730585 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 20:32:16 +0000 Ash 730585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me!

He's actually obsessed with the lawn. There's a newish neighbor that's even more obsessed then he is and it's like they're competing who mows the lawn more! The funny thing is, our neighborhood is filled with senior citizens, yet the two guys that are always mowing are both young! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730551 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 20:22:01 +0000 avivoca 730551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do. DH travels for work during prime mowing season. I can already see my neighbors having a heart attack when I'm out mowing at 30 weeks pregnant this summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730522 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 20:10:52 +0000 heffalump 730522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We hired someone, our neighbor owns a lawn service. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730450 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:42:31 +0000 Ra 730450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730447 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:41:52 +0000 Happygal 730447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our landlord pays for a service. I wouldn't want to mow, but for some reason, I was thinking today that we should be a weed wacker. It seems like a satisfying job to get the small places all tidy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730427 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:38:07 +0000 yin 730427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH cuts the grass most of the time. Last summer I cut the grass more than DH, mainly because I had the time since my sister stayed over most of the week and helped me watch LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730371 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:15:27 +0000 autumnlove 730371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our gardener! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730344 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:04:35 +0000 Smurfette 730344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH, no interest at all </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730333 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 19:00:48 +0000 spaniellove 730333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH mows and edges; I wouldn't be allowed. He's such a perfectionist that I'm not allowed to step on an edge! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-730316 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 18:58:07 +0000 JessKas 730316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never mowed a lawn. I know I could but I figure I do most of the inside house stuff, so my husband can do all the outdoor work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-727464 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 20:20:02 +0000 pastemoo 727464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: We have no lawn and I have never in my life mowed a lawn! I used to bribe my roommates in grad school with other chores or fresh cooked meals if they did my mowing--plus I only had it 3 times (monthly chore wheel with 4 roommates- yeah!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-727457 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 20:18:39 +0000 sslm 727457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH does it, but I have on occasion! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-727402 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 20:11:22 +0000 T-Mom 727402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use a lawn service!

It's not a task either one of us would enjoy in the middle of a Texas summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-726470 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 17:27:30 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 726470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The lawn guys.

I just won't lol. I'll let it go up to my eyebrows before I mow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-726452 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 17:22:27 +0000 sorrycharlie 726452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha FIL. we rent!

But at a previous house I tried mowing and got the mower stuck under the garage, so...I don't foresee a lot of mowing in my future. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-mows-the-lawn#post-726441 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 17:18:56 +0000 HLK208 726441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH!

Luckily it's pretty small so it's not like he's out there for hours or anything.</p> <p>When we first moved in last year, we actually just kept going with the lawn company that the previous owners had used. And then we were actually home one day when they showed up, and it was amazing to see how little they actually did. We canceled the contract the next week. </p>
