Do you enjoy yard work or do it out of necessity?

I love working in the yard too.  My hubby owns a landscaping company and he's been teaching me a lot.  2 of my 3 kids really enjoy it too.  Some of you may remember me talking about moving and having a huge backyard.  A creek runs through it and there's a willow tree...a couple of oak tree's and plenty of space to garden.  Last month our back yard flooded.  You couldn't even see our fire pit.  Last weekend I decided to clean up some of the stuff that had been washed up from it....you could see shards of glass everywhere back there.  As it turns out we found junk...glass, towel bars, burried animals...we're thinking it may have been a city dump.... so much for putting a garden in there...I think even if we tilled the dirt up we'd just keep finding more garbage...so when I say this place is a dump..it's literal.

I love working in my yard but, unfortunately, am only able to do so once every six weeks or so.  I have been working between seventy and ninety five hours per week in addition to attending my children's functions.  Tomorrow, for instance, I will be at a Lacrosse tournament from six in the morning until eight tomorrow night.  After I finish a few posts here and point to click on a few other sites I will jump into work until six this evening when I get to attend my children's music recitals.  I wanted to work out this morning but am catching up on sleep from the week before.  Unfortunately my health takes a back seat to everything.

Neither lol - I don't work in the yard because of my disabilities - makes it impossible - and its too hot in Florida so I have to get my sons to do it or let it go which means my yard isn't winning any beautification awards.  :dontknow:

I love working in the yard.  Whether is mowing grass or planting flowers I enjoy being outside and making my yard look good!

I love yard work it's one of my passions. I grew up doing a lot of work in my family's plantation planting taros, breadfruits, bananas, yams,, and also cleaning the yard. I guess my upbringing was vital for survival and yard work for me is like a normal routine.  :thumbsup:

I not a big fan of working the yard. My wife would like the yard look better but I'm not really ambitious enough to do it I enjoy it when it is done. It looks good but I have a hard time getting started adding it. So it don't get done as often as it should.
