I don't have a lawn, I have grass
I don't think my wife knows where the lawnmower is. She sure does not know how it works.

Many years ago my sister-in-law heard that it is easy and cheap to over-seed the lawn in the fall with winter rye. My brother was out mowing the yard on news years day. He explained clearly and honestly that if she ever did that again SHE would be mowing on New years day, not him. Her only reply was how pretty the yard looked. He reminded her that the mower would be winterized on Thanksgiving day and put away for winter. She can hire it done after that. He lives in Alabama so the growing season is long.
