    For years I did all the mowing until last year when I suffered a back and leg injury. This year hubby and I split it 50/50. I wish we had a riding mower but our yard isn't that big. I'm better now so I'm sure next year it will be all me.

    My brother mows the lawn. The deal is he has to pay $200 a month for rent. Every time he mows the lawn (once a week) he gets paid $50. The idea is that if he keeps the lawn mowed weekly he doesn't have to pay to live at the house.

    My dad is chief detailer, and my mom is in charge of the gardens.

    I've been the only one tall enough to push the mower for the past 20 years. Since I bought an electric mower, I really don't mind. Starts quick, runs smooth and quietly, done in an hour and a half for front and back.

    Bob cuts my grass. I answered a add in the local area paper about
    5 yrs ago from a retired guy who wanted summer grass cutting jobs. It's
    worked out great. He's a nice guy & does a great job.

    My oldest brother actually mows all 3 lawns...his and my parents two..because all 3 houses basically make a triangle....My parents new house and his are next to each other and across the street is their "old" house that they'll be remodeling.

    He volunteered to mow all 3 each week on tuesday because he has a riding lawn mower.

    Before i moved back home a few months ago I had my own place in Kewanee,IL and my lovely landlord offered to mow my lawn because he too has a riding lawn mower

    I pick up the poo and mow the lawn, I also take care of the flowers beds and lay down the mulch in the spring.

    My hubby uses the weed eater.

    I think I got a bad deal!

    I do! After helping to cut the biggest lawn around here (called a golf course!), I have to come home and cut my own grass, thank goodness for small lawns!

    Hubby does most of it, but I do help sometimes. We have a push mower and quite a bit to mow, good exercise.

    Since we've moved into our new house (2000), we have a huge lawn. So we bought a little tractor mower too. Mowing is now my son Jo's job
