Yes, I mow our little patch of handkerchief-size lawn, rake the leaves and try to do some planting. Unfortunately we are renting and just before Christmas our landlord sent someone around to pull out all the plants except for 2 shrubs. It was a sad day for me........ :(

No, I pay someone to cut my grass in the summer time.

I don't have much lawn to begin with, so paying for someone to do this is not practical. There is periodically a few weeds to attend to, but otherwise my family's lawn is pretty low maintenance.

No, I am part of an association and they do all the yard work.  I have a hilly lot and I would not be able to do it myself.  I installed a sprinkler system as it was getting too much to try to water everything on the inclines.

I'd give anything to have a yard, let alone a house.

Yes...I rake leaves, trim bushes, water the lawn and flowers. The only thing I don't do is mow the lawn, my sister usually does that.

Me and my husband do. But we don't have a green bone in our body. We're having a hard time keeping the grass green!

I wish I could plant a garden where we live. We live in a duplex and we really don't have much of an area to plant anything. The dirt we do have the dogs do their business in. But everything else, mowing the lawn and things like that, we do ourselves.
