Hi,
My neighbor takes my trash out every week for me.
My ex husband plows my driveway in the winter and mows the lawn in the
summer.
Plus,my youngest daughter goes food shopping and to the library for me;she
and her husband do things around the house for me.My oldest daughter and her
husband do a lot of things too(they got some new fencing,painted it,and
installed it last year,and painted my house a few years ago).
Plus my sister and brother in law take me to appointments when needed.I live
in an area without public transportation,and handicapped transportation is not
available.
Cheryl who knows how lucky she is with family and friends.

I find being in a small town is easier. Try the community services- if not in
the phone book, call the town office. During the school year call the High
School Guidance person. I have a high school squad to shovel in the winter,
mow in the summer, move objects around in the house, do minor plumbing and
electrical jobs. I pay $15.00 per hour and if they do well will write a
college reference letter for them.
If you ask, you will find lots of great people who want to help
Good Luck
