    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    Mulched the front yard yesterday, the back gets it today. Still a lot of leaves on the Red Maple so I may have to mulch again next week.

    I normally mulch the leaves too but the drought was so bad this year the lawn is crap and it would just lay on top. So I'm bagging it this year, first time I've ever done that.

    The VA furnished me with a walker a couple years ago. I use it in the house a lot, and just last week used it for the first time while going out. It's the best thing since peanut butter! Large strong wheels, and really great for lumbar support. The downside is... No motor.

    That's absolutely the best thing about subscribing to internet. We record virtually everything we watch now, in order to fast forward through commercials. Start, stop, pause, replay, it's all good, and further, if you wait till next day to watch a recording, you hit the fast button once only and it resumes the program when the commercials end.

    Pardon my ignorance, but is the record capability through the equipment or the internet service? Is recording something you have to sign up for with some kind of "package"? And of course... does it cost more? Or is it something that TVs come with? Is it something you have to be sure the equipment has?

    Unfortunately, it's the internet service, not the TV. It's standard with the service, but not cheap. We did just recently upgrade our TV, something called Sony OLed. Amazingly, you can see the 5 O'clock shadow on a Tsetse fly with this TV. Everything is WiFi nowadays, too, so now more monster cables for the speaker system.

    Not me just dog poop. I get the leaves when they are done falling. And never while they’re still above my head waiting to give me the leaf finger as I. Get back in the house after raking.

    Huh... and I like the leaves on the ground. I've got the healthiest lawn in the neighborhood and that's part of it. I never rake my lawn.

    Part of why I rake is to get up some of the billion and two acorns that fall from my trees and then start growing little oak trees. :annoyed:
