At least I do have help weeding them, but I am taking a few out. I have too much to do and I pull the same weeds every year Grumbling

I asked for a battery powered weed wacker for Christmas and swore I'd do all that trimming. I've been pretty good about doing it. Hubby likes to mow in straight lines, no curves. And it's a rider! Who wants a square flower bed?? Contentious when spring comes.....

Skits,
ROTFL! I do all the mowing and bed designs. Sometimes I wish I made all of them square!
I too asked for a weed whacker, but he uses it while I mow. I've used it but it's heavy. At least it's cordless.

DH mows and is SUPPOSED to weed wack but he never gets that part done so I normally do that. I do ALL of the landscaping unless it needs the big tiller or a big bucket on the tractor nodding
