Hello everyone. My husband used to post here, before he passed several
years ago. I used to enjoy reading this forum along side of him in the
evenings.

I have a "what would you do" question.

My neighbor has large trees, which overhang our property. During this past
wind storm, several large limbs ended up on my property. I asked him if he
could remove them, so I could cut the lawn. He called me every name in the
book, and told me it's my problem.

I suppose I could hire someone to remove them, but only having a fixed
income, and Arty didn't have life insurance, sure puts a bind on things
around here. *I'd move them myself, but at 73, I'm afraid I don't have the
strength to, as it already takes me several days to cut the grass on a city
lot.

What would you do?

Thank you.


Really? This nice lady comes here asking for advice and you suggest
that she tell some teenagers to throw the limbs back over the fence?
Are you going to be there when the police show up?

Oh I see, that explains the part where the members of your church do a
lot of "free work"

After all, in another post you said: "I'm partial to the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They (we) do a lot of free work."

So the "free work" would be you being there when the police show up
after she follows your suggestion and has the teenagers throw the wood
over the fence, right? That's very nice of you.
