9. Wish I could. I live in a 200 year old New England house.

Doing much of anything other than grass would not look right here. I have a tiny front yard, fair side yard and small back yard. This area does not lend itself to plantings other than shrubs and plants surrounding the perimeter of the house. The grass is the prime cover for most of the yard. With our strange spring, the work is not yet done. Waiting for some rain in order to fertilize the grass and to kill whatever weeds and crabgrass sprouts. These past two years have been very strange in terms of growing anything.

I have to depend on family help for the yard work and that also complicates this job. Schedule problems.
