I really enjoy edging. It's quite the thrill.

He probably regrets recommending that edger/trimmer thing to me because the battery doesn't last long enough for my super elite lawn with all its graceful edges and corners. I have to do the front first, then plug in the battery while I mow, then do the back.
How big is your lot? I'm in the market for an electric trimmer. I'm really sick of getting a tuneup every year on the little bastard.

Buy the hedge trimmer and you will get a second battery and charger. Boom....problem solved.

My greenworks weedeater/edger arrived the other day. More power than I had expected. I love it. Will be ordering greenworks mower, trimmer, and extendable limb saw thingy next week. No gas for me this summer.

The area that is ideal for us because of our work commutes is pretty much all new construction anyway. We are in the fringe burbs/corn field zone.

no mature trees?

tons actually. we are the home of arbor day sys. ARBOR DAY.

It just doesn't add up

Met with the builder yesterday. Completion date is moved up a month. They're pouring the foundation this week.

they forgot to dig the basement

Took forever but the foundation is finally poured.

I know this horse has been beaten to death but I cannot wrap my head around how I would deal with a 2 car garage AND no basement. I could deal with one or the other (though not happily) but both seems unmanageable.

slobber · « **Reply #1663 on:** July 27, 2015, 10:17:04 AM »

It sucks. I didn't sign up for this crap. I do have a third floor and a nice sized attic, but I will never again buy a no 3rd stall/no basement house.

Gonna win 'em all!

(I don't care how big the house is or if you have a pool (sorry Batt BcKee), so you people that want to try to justify it just shut your mouth. I made a mistake and I am owning up to it.)

A 3rd car garage would have been nice but I'll enjoy the pool much more.

No basement would be near impossible to deal with. Actually, I probably couldn't. 2 car garage would be kinda meh but way more manageable

The amount of scooters, ride on things, wagons, strollers, etc. lil sd has in his lineup has me wishing I'd gotten a 4 car actually.

sys · « **Reply #1668 on:** July 27, 2015, 11:56:19 AM »

he probably doesn't have kids. i've got a 2 car garage and no basement and we still only use like a quarter of the house.

Institutional Control · « **Reply #1669 on:** July 27, 2015, 11:59:26 AM »

You guys sound like pack rats.

j/k. I"ll probably only park one car in the garage.

ChiComCat · « **Reply #1670 on:** July 27, 2015, 11:59:51 AM »

I feel like you could mitigate the garage limitations with a shed. Can't really get around having a basement by digging a hole in the backyard though.

sure you could. it wasn't that long ago that most houses in this country had cellars.

Institutional Control · « **Reply #1672 on:** July 27, 2015, 12:07:24 PM »

I'm really rethinking this decision, guys. What if 2800 square feet isn't enough room?

slobber · « **Reply #1673 on:** July 27, 2015, 12:08:41 PM »

It won't be. That's okay. Additions and new homes are great.

And to everyone on planet earth...park your damn cars in the garage!
