Yard rescue for Adeline, 71: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Adeline's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇺🇸 Arlington, Texas, United States570 views
I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Arlington for 23 years. After the storm in March, 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 poor eyesight.
The council has told me it will be six 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.
I hope life is good to you.
