I like to work in the yard when I have a definite project with an end in sight. It is good therapy after I have worked on the computer a long time. :heart:

I don't really like it, but it is cheap exercise and I always feel better afterwards because of the workout and that I accomplished something.

I like working in my garden. Never really liked outside work until I started a garden. Now I enjoy it.

If I actually had a yard then yes.  I love planting and the smell fresh flowers produce, wish I had my own home to do that.  :)

Yes I love working in the yard, pulling the weed planting my veggies, in different places. It is very relaxing and good  for your health.  I bought a new black iris
to plant I real think it is just dark dark purple, you should seen all us ladies ladies stand at the grocery store talking about it.

working in the yard when it's over 90 degrees no. If it's a nice cool day it's not so bad.

I love it but having fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue hinders me from doing most of it especially when it is hot outside.

Sorry to hear that, I too suffer from fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue among seizure related migraines and torn ligament.  So I feel your pain ~ yo may want to look into acupuncture and heated aquatic physical therapy.  I hear those are really good natural remedies for that condition.  Best of luck to you!  :sad1:

I love it....early morning watering! Love the look/smell of a freshly mowed lawn.

The weeds are annoying. My favorite part is picking the fruit and vegetables.

Now that I have a yard, I do like it.  Got a manual push mower which is really good exercise (as long as I don't let the grass get too long - then I call my lawn guy   ;D ).  This summer hoping to put a nice brick border around some trees in the back yard and lay down some fresh mulch.  I also will attempt to trim the knockout rose bushes for the first time - hope I don't kill them.

I hope to start a garden in a year or two - just have some other maintenance I want to get done first - but pace myself, both due to time and $$.
