I have to mow my little lawn. Except that all the flora is probably at least two feet tall.

Fortunately, my little lawn is only about 16 feet by 16 feet, with an 8x8 concrete slab patio. Last year, I tried using my sister's electric weed eater, but it was a total pain in the behind. Just trying to get more of the twine out of the spinner thingy was difficult. And the idea of trying to get a lawn mower back there would be crazy, too...even just borrowing one and transporting it to my place would be a hassle.

So today I was thinking about a gas-powered weed eater and I searched "weed eater trimmer" on Amazon and got a whole page of weed eaters, but there was one item on that page for a
hedge trimmer and I thought, "PERFECT!!" It's a lot easier to use than a lawn mower and much more powerful than a weed eater. The only drawback would be that I'd have to kneel down the whole time that I'd be using it. But I figure that with my back yard being so small, it really shouldn't be too much of a problem...hopefully. My sister has one that I can borrow. So, I'm off to my sister's.
Wish me luck!
