[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am one of those people. My exdh wanted a certain kind of house with a certain kind of yard, so we bought one. He doesnt like yard maintenance so we paid a lawn service/handyman service for everything. Now that he no longer lives here, I had to cancel the lawn service as I cant afford it on my salary. It has taken a while for me to get the hang of everything that needs to be done. [/quote]

I understand this. First time home buyers also often feel very uncomfortable and unsure when dealing with yard stuff at the beginning. If you're lucky you'll have a nice neighbor who can give helpful advice and you'll slowly begin to feel more confident about it. Spouse and I were the young couple who bought a house in a nice neighborhood where everyone was at least 10-15 years older and they were nuts about lawn maintenance. One of the neighbors was nice and gave us a nice overview of what to do when and we learned to do it ourselves. It takes a little time to learn the simple things, like in the spring if it rains much your grass will seem to grow a foot in a day. Also you have to learn to manage the weeds in any plant beds you have. That can be intimidating.

Good luck pp. I hope things get easier for you. [/quote]
