I once had a lawn service that kept my lawn mowed and weeded. Problem was, the chemicals fried the lawn. Now, I just mow it and am grateful to have the weeds back. At least it's green and looks great from the street...tee hee. And Barb is right...home ownership; there is always something to do, but thank God for the privilege. I hope you and Suzette enjoy your new house and are blessed with all the joy that comes from not only owning it, but it also being your 'home'.
