Craftsman Riding Mower will start, but not go forward or backward?

OK here's the deal...I'm a female with very limited knowledge of anything mechanical and my Craftsman riding mower just stopped going forward (or backward). The engine will start right up but it doesn't seem to catch anything when I put it into gear. I know I will have to have someone look at it, but I would just like to know what it is first.

Probably the machine has lost its drive belt that goes from the engine to the transmission - thats the obvious thing to look for at this stage.
