When we moved my mother into her condo she hired a guy to cut her lawn....he showed up with his riding mower, mowed it, trimmed it and charged her $80.... I fired him, purchased an electric push mower and mowed it and trimmed it myself.... took me 20 minutes
Pretty much the same. I’m loaning them my mower for the week, and suggesting they buy one like it for less than $200 rather than paying someone to come in and mow that.
But did you get your $80?
Crazy story: my next door neighbor has a pitbull, about 100 lbs was about 90lbs when this happened. My dog 15lbs . One day our door was open and her dog ran in our house and we had to chase him out. Another day he took a pee or crap on our lawn I forget which. My dog didn't like this at all and had a grudge with that pitbull. So it's summer 2021 and we got all our stuff we need in our car getting ready to go on vacation. My dog would always jump in the car if you opened the door for him off leash, he never ran off would always get in the car everytime. This day was different I called him and said get in the car buddy he walked towards the door to the car and looked out for a minute and saw that pitbull he had a grudge with, he ran as fast as his little legs could propel him and charged at that pitbull and jumped on him. Now he didn't win but he held his own until we ran over to break up the fight but he had some cojones to fight the biggest dog in the neighborhood. He didn't realize that other dog was 10x his size. I don't condone that but it was a crazy series of events. Neither dog got any serious injuries but it was crazy, my dog never did anything like that before, but he didn't realize how little his body was. In his mind he was just as big or bigger than his rival pitbull.
Dude I may be a bit old school even though I'm only 31, but both my parents were born in the 50s. If I ever see older people who need help I try my best to help. Something like mow the grass I would of did for free, I understand people need to make money but charging an older lady $80 is way too much. I used to get $20 a lawn, but quite a few times did it for free.
I have got many tree cutting people who quoted me from $4000 to $6500 to clean up the mess. I did it in 3 weeks
Nope.... I got NOTHIN'....
Especially for a yard I can do in 20 minutes with a push mower
I use to work a tree farm in Pennsylvania, I have cut dow down a lot of trees.
My situation is different.
He is the biggest Bada$$ in the house anyhow.
The pup we just lost was also the boss of the house...the toughest thing on the planet
For me to have the town take them away have to fit 3 giant arborvitae in lawn and leaf bags....
Afte my last one Yaya passed away, I got 5 little ones (Yaya #2, Kiki, Jaja, bandit, cowboy). This way if anyone passes away, I will still have 4 lefts. 4 of those 5 came from the same family of my passed away one. I still regret that I didn't clone my passed away dog (it costs about $50,000 to clone a dog).

Some dogs just don’t know or care how small they are. Glad your little guy didn’t get hurt in that, and I maybe shouldn’t, but I say good on him!
Chihuahuas are notorious for barking up the wrong tree....Talking about little dogs
My uncle had a Bouvier Des Flandres, which is a giant of a dog.
His daughter had a chihuahua
View attachment 29778
My uncle was having a cookout and I heard the chihuahua barking. He was barking at the Bouvier. The Bouvier got up, walked slowly over, bent down and was nose to nose with the chihuahua, who was still barking..... after about 2 minutes, the Bouvier stood up, turned around, walked across the deck, and laid back down. The Chihuahua was still barking.... my uncle's daughter finally had to take her dog in the house...only then it stopped barking
