    I really appreciate your videos. I am a widow and when my husband died last year I was lost, and now a year later so is my yard. i am so embarrased and I cant even get a landscaper to return my calls. My husband always handled these things and I didn't have a clue of where to start. U have given me hope and courage to go to the hardware store and buy some tools. I think I can do this. thank u

      So sorry about your hubby.Are there any young men in your family you can pay to mow for you?I used to mow my own grass but I was tired of the sinus headaches etc.I pay a guy to mow mine now,just the front and small sides.I have all trees in the backyard.

      Sorry for your loss. Many women are in your shoes. There must be mowing services doing your neighbors' yards. When you see someone mowing & they have a nice truck & trailer (sign of a good business), go up & ask them how much it would cost to have your lawn mowed. Tell them you want to have them do a trial run and if you like how they work (mow, edge & trim) then hire them on a month to month basis. If you live in Florida, where the grass is cut all year, don't sign a contract. Have confidence, good luck and God bless.
