I purchased a small electric mower for picking up oak leaves. It’s fast and chops them up enough that I can get 3-4 times as many leaves in the Mixed organics bin. Blow the leaves on to the driveway, shred.
I’m reminded off the saying, We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.
Where would we be without trees? In Florida, the pine needles help the azalea bushes and the Magnolia trees can be very messy with leaves, and pods falling as well.

Alternatively a plugger has pine trees and the like planted in his yard so he doesn’t have to worry about them shedding leaves.;-D

Hard work never scared me…….. I can lay down right beside it and go to sleep.

Or until the snow covers the leaves, whichever comes first.

Not any pluggers I know.. mine take pride in a clean tidy lawn, heck some even help their neighbors.

When I feel like cleaning the house I just turn the page on the book I am reading until the feeling goes away.

I don’t mind the leaves, it’s the dang black walnuts that I hate.
