The yard where I live is mostly rock but we do have bushes and trees. So we know with them weeds appear. I don't  have to but I do keep the weeds pulled and water these items. I miss mowing the grass.

YES!! Especially when it begins to warm up after winter. I live in a 3plex, so our yards really aren't that big, and the land lord hooks me up with cheap water, since I take care of the grass and landscaping. It feels great when you make something out of nothing!

I live in an apartment, but my husband can't wait to have a house so he can do yardwork for our house. I don't really get it, I would rather pay someone to do it.

We do all our landscaping.  My husbands a professional landscaper.  We rent a duplex owned by family and we know they appreciate not having to keep up with it.  What we've done has improved the look of the place.  And when customers drive by and see the company vehicles it's reassuring to them that our yard shines with pride.

I do my own yard work, when I mow I get my mp3 player and headphones and listen to music as I mow, makes things go faster to me.

Yes, it is good therapy.  It is hard work, but it is rejuvenating work. 8)
