Will try to edge the driveway tomorrow.

My total yard time is about 90 minutes
That includes mowing, edging, and dusting.

I'm good for 25-30 minutes at a time and my legs give out.
Partly due to the Meniere's Disease. And I'm a wuss. If I come in, rest, hydrate and snack, im good for another round. Zero-turn mower, so no biggie, but sitting for a while does make me shaky.

Yup. Still 84% humidity. Crazy for mid day. Temp currently 86.7 degrees

I didn't want to wait later in the afternoon for fear it would rain...
It's not supposed to rain until ~9pm tonight, but I saw several dark clouds go over around noon, so I decided to get it done.

I mowed at 9 this morning. Bad enough.

I thought about it, but my grass was still pretty wet from last night.
