Last 2 weekends I put in about 20 hours just in my front yard. Cleaning, moving stuff in the beds, totally ripping up and redoing a bed, edging, pre weeding. Next weekend = an easy $600 + in mulch and another 12 hours. Not including pulling out 2 white pines and a blue spruce and replanting a screen along my driveway. Oh yeah and I need a lawn! My HUGE front lawn needs to be totally redone. 8 years ago it was taken care of by the builders who built the house. They spread #^&#^&#^&#^&ty loam, hydro seeded and we got a massive rain storm that moved what was there for loom. The lawn was crap for 2 years. So they came back with a truckload of mexicans with wheel barrows and shovels. That didn't work so I made 2 attempts at slice seeding, didn't work. This is the 1st year I'm doing this stuff myself instead of paying someone. What a pain in the AZZ but it feels good at the end of the day.
