Seriously think about it this way your comfort must come first its time to give up stuff that your cant do so get a contractor notwithstanding Doug's excellent input use their gear but ask them how they control the spread of weeds.
The cost of buying and maintaining a mower will be gone from your life. The outgoing may be hard to take at first but like petrol prices you will adjust.
Most people can earn more by application to their own career and I expect that you may find such in your case. If averaged over a year the weekly cost may not be as high as you expect. If your lawns suffer so be it better the lawns go downhill than you my friend. When in real estate I saw a good idea and this guy was in the landscape business ..no lawn just ivy which sortta self regulated and could be cut with a machette once in a blue Moon..

umm the tranist of Mercury didn't help, but it was worth the pain . however living with myself afterwards was a different matter

I hurt my back at work last year, and I have a protruding disk now that gets upset whenever i stand or get into bad positioning, never do that at the scope now as I have my wonder astro chair from wavelandscott
