Yard rescue for Araceli, 72: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Araceli, 72, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Buenos Aires for 42 years. After the storm in January, 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 six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
