Before we bought a home we were extremely worried about all the ways we'd be spending money. We wanted to make sure that we really could afford all the extra things that come with buying a home. We made a long list of all the new expenditures and quizzed all our home owning friends and family members. My husband's parents were particularly aware of our quest and happened to come across a lawn mower for $5 at a yard sale. Its an old push mower and is as loud as can be but I love this thing. Its been five years since we got it and every spring we give it a couple of strong pulls and it starts right up. Sometimes I throw on my heart rate monitor and get my exercise in for the day and let me tell you, I get a great cardio workout!!!!
We're like hospice for lawn mowers. We've gone through so many in the last few years. Yours gives me hope that we'll find one that lasts longer!
