Had a friend and his wife move in with us for a short time as they were moving to our city for a new job. They offered to help with chores and whatnot around the house, and he specifically mentioned he could help with yard work. I told him in no uncertain terms that that was my “me time” and he was to never intrude on that again. He chuckled knowingly.
Yup, I had a friend crash with us for a bit to get back on his feet and I had the exact same convo with him. Nah dawg, you can do the dishes… yards mine.
I get it. We can easily afford someone to come mow our lawn but that’s quiet me time that I need so I’d much rather do it myself.
Quiet? On a motorized lawn mower?
My noise cancelling headphones work great and my mower’s electric. It’s not loud at all.
But I’m mostly saying “quiet” to mean being away from other people

Electric is the future. They also don’t rattle your body like a gas mower does. I’m not sure why this isn’t used more as a selling feature.
