TOPIC: New House

Re: New House 18 years 3 months ago #13

I wish I had never bought a house.  I'm too lazy to be a home owner!  You can't tell me they can't genetically engineer grass that only grows so high so there is no need to mow it.  It's a conspiracy!

<br /><br />Do what my buddy did (admittedly he has more dispoabable income than I though): he's a bachelor, but he's a broker so he makes a lot of money, and figured a house to be a good investment... until he had to mow the yard... two months later he had a 40' x 60' stamped concrete patio put in, and he had landscapers plant & mulch the rest: voila a house with no mowable back yard...

Gah--40' x 60'?  I dread to think how much that cost!  I was thinking a Japanese rock garden for mine.  I currently use a push mover for the 3/4 acre back yard, and when its over ninety degrees out, that just ain't fun.

Don't remind me.  We're still in the process of painting and making a few repairs.  We will move in the last weekend in July.<br /><br />Kim

<br /><br />I can't remember the exact amount, but I remember thinking it was fairly obscene, especially when the entire reasoning was that he wouldn't have to mow the lawn anymore... but like I said, he's got quite a bit more disposable income than me...
