Mowing the Lawn
We have a deal in our house, that Greg mows the lawn with the tractor, and I do all the push mowing. Sounds a little unpleasant for me, but I love it. There is nothing that clears your head like the loudness of a lawnmower. It overrides any kid yelling your name, any baby crying, and any other sounds you may desire to drown out for the time you are mowing. Greg dislikes push mowing, and I have not mastered our tractor so this is a perfect match. He also does the weed whacking, which I'm grateful for. I just finished mowing, and Greg asked me, "Was it as fulfilling as you recall from last time?" Yes, it was. A break from the Mommy routine, a bit of exercise and some sunshine exposure all mixed into one.
