After almost 11 months of living in our house, I mowed our lawn by myself for the first time and it felt really nice and accomplishing! Before, I hired somebody from the neighborhood to do the yard-work, but now I can do it whenever I want. And, you know something, while I was mowing the backyard, Niko was playing on the back porch, playing in his sandbox, and laying down on the hammock.
Oh, I purchased a cordless battery operated Greenworks lawnmower. No gas and no extension cords. The battery lasted just long enough for me to finish the backyard.
