    Several times, I wish we'd done like we did in previous years and just mowed them.

    That's just what I do, I don't mess with rakes anymore. When I got my leaves up over the weekend, I mowed. Was gonna blow em, but that would have taken up some time too.

    Mowing's usually better to do if you've already raked a few times and your tree leaves are almost gone. This was the first time I raked this season. It would have been a mess if I ran the lawn mower over those puppies.

    Nope. One of the perks of living in an apartment complex.

    Yup twice already. Did it last week and will probably have to again before this week is out.

    I guess that's an advantage to living in an apartment - no leaves to rake.

    Our back yard is a wind catcher. So, all of ours go elsewhere on the first windy day. Love it.

    I just run the mower over them and let the bag pick 'em up....even if they're shredded to bits and I gotta go over it two or three times. Fuck a rake. That takes forever.

    On a sidenote, I feel bad for my next door neighbor....she doesn't have a tree in her yard, but between my tree and her other neighbors tree, she STILL gotta rake. LMAO!

    That's what she get for having a hoodrat tween daughter that won't stay off my grass in the summer.
