The end effect of gardening is great. A well-tended garden can be just beautiful. But all the work that goes into it is just miserable. Yards too. I raked my yard a few weeks ago and it was torture. Not so much the work itself, just the amount of time I had to spend just being bored out of my skull while staring at the vast quantities of yard I still had to rake. Give me a house right on the sidewalk with a 5x5 patch of grey dirt and I'll be happy.
