A day in the garden: help Miles in Albany
Garden rescue day in Albany: bring gloves and a rake.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Albany for 38 years. After the storm in May, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

good luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Blessings
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Surat.
Keep going. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Istanbul but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
this could happen to any of us. I hope August is when things finally get easier.
