Yep, I do enjoy the yardwork as well as other do-it-yourself projects... and I see what you're getting at.
Besides the yard, I've painted my entire house inside and out. I always say that for me it's all about Step 4... Step 4 is: Stand back and admire your work... I can't even begin to tell you how much enjoyment I get each and every day just walking around outside my house. LOL
My favorite thing though would have to be woodworking. If you've ever seen the show Wood Works on the DIY channel you'll see what I'm talking about. That is definitely my dharma. heh...
