"I have people for that" is my standard solution to the work items I no longer have any interest in attempting to do for myself. Except for the toe nail thing, that is. Although, I will admit to having had a pedicure a couple of times and found it to be a rather pleasant experience.

Work smart, not hard.
Damn you guys. Mrs. Cow decided this morning that I should begin the day by running the powerful DR Trimmer for about 45 minutes. The kind you push around like a lawnmower with really big wheels. That is a really great tool for doing serious weedeating. My hands are still vibrating against the keyboard, though.
Mr cow, (bull) have you tried one of these?
It's a wire brush head for a weed eater.

Alternative for physical labor.......

That is the good stuff. The gal who mows around our house put down about an eight inch strip around two sides a few years ago. Today there is a little grass along that strip, but not much.
That wire brush idea sounds great. My basic problem is that I insist on attempting to use tools beyond their capacity. I would be using the weedeater like a chain saw on small trees.
Yer lucky, I'm not allowed to have a chainsaw anymore but she finally gave me my drill back. (I'm gonna buy a chain saw attachment for it, but she don't know)
About ten years ago we had a couple hired to mow Bethel Cemetery. After the first mowing, they discovered how long it takes to run around with a weedeater trimming around all the stones and individual mausoleums. They broke out the Roundup and killed everything within eighteen inches so as to eliminate trimming.
I saw no problem with that. Far too many of the family members stopping by to visit their deceased family members, though, had a radically different thought on the subject. We had far more complaints lodged that year than the total of twenty normal years. Wow. Took many a butt-chewing for that. From many people who wouldn't say "shit" if they had a mouth full of it.
Hint: "it" rhymes with "it".
