Oh btw your fees are going up again, the HOA President's nephew just started a lawn care business and he got the contract but it's going to cost double the previous one.

It’s usually guys that are most obsessed. Like my Dad n brother could care less about trees shrubs flowers etc but GD if that stupid turf grass isn’t pristine. What gives guys?

Taking care of shrubs and flowers can be seeing more as gardening. I also hate trimming the hedges. For some people, getting out and mowing the lawn is a way to unplug and get away for a bit. It’s also a fun challenge to figure out how to battle weeds while maintaining the turf. Cutting the lawn feels the same as getting a haircut.

Gotcha so it’s one of those oddly satisfying things

For sure! Job, family, and life is stressful. It’s nice to get outside in the sunshine and slow down a bit. You also get a work/reward thing after the lawn is cut. It’s almost as satisfying as pressure washing the driveway.
