[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 135130, member: 1697"] LOL wyntersgrace. Star, ya know, that happened to us, here, too. MY kids, and all the neighbors and the kids at HS and church? ALl those years I worked 2 jobs, and husband was too sick, and then when I was so gosh darn sick...O WAY could I shovel. My driveway is a car and a half length long and a car and a half length wide, and I offered $50 to ANYONE who would shovel the gosh darn thing, and nope....I never did get anyone to do it. It was the same with lawn mowing and raking leaves, too. I have less than one fifth acre, in town, and noone would mow for $50, even! It takes me less than an hour to do it, now (YAY and I enjoy doing it!!!!) BUT all that time when I was too sick or never here to be able to do it? It was awful and the fines from my city for it not being done were embarassing and sad. When I was in Marine COrps League Aux, the corps would be looking for places to go to help veterans....mowing, painting, raking etc and while I did do enough volunteer work for the corps that I earned our detachment a first place state level award, I never cold get them to believe that i could not do things like rake, mow and shovel, and neither could my 100% disabled service connected husband. I am truly so appreciative of my newly restored phsyical ability to do it myself!!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
