Why is the wife cutting the grass, don't you have goats?


A renewable energy source, trim and fertilize in one pass, ecologically sound too.

Just don't bend over in front of them.

Only if you don't sit on the porch and yell you missed a spot.

Then she goes out, and mows the lawn with the lines all higgeldy piggeldy.
The carpet is clean, the grass is mowed, it all looks great from a helicopter.
So, who is right?


Arch, you and Mrs. B should follow the old adage...'if you want something done right, do it yourself.' Once done, chase each other naked 'round the house.

"Chasing," of course, meaning at a moderate pace.

One wouldn't want to burn themselves out.

At our age, fast chasing is impossible. Chasing a slug is about our speed.

Buy a Rumba to do the floors and while it works, sit on the porch with your favorite beverage and give your wife directions..... that may end you up in the dog house or worse. How about switching jobs, she vacuum and you mow? Then neither can complain about how it is done...... no divorce and you get your mow lines, which if I must say is a big issue for me.... I like the yard looking like a baseball field and actually mow twice a week. I do not have wall to wall carpet and the rugs, well you can not see vacuum lines, so no issue there. I hate wall to wall carpet, for some odd reason I always think they harbor dust mites and bugs. A few years before Mother passed, she had every room (to include her bath) carpeted. After her death and a respectful time (about a week) I had it all ripped out and the hardwood floors restored.

We only have carpet in the bedrooms, and hallway ourselves. The last time I vacuumed, I went to a lot of trouble to make horizontal instead of vertical lines in the hall just to get under her skin.

Both. You should mow the carpet and let her vacuum the grass, then you'd both be happy.

You're not suggesting that the two of you are just shells of your former selves, are you

if you insist that you are right
be sure there is room in the dog's house for two
