Welcome to the weekend! If there’s one thing I have learned about owning a home with a yard is that it takes a lot of effort to maintain the lawn and shrubs. I definitely underestimated our 0.3 acre lot! For all the new dads out there, don’t be cheap (like me) and spring for a rider-mower. If you live in an area that sees the traditional transition to Fall (equals many, many leaves), a self-propelled mower will make life more difficult. A rider mower is significantly better. With that said, I still have a self-propelled walk behind. But don’t follow my lead! Haha.
