The new yr is approching upon us

I can't wait till this year is over & get into the new yr so I can get somethings done around here 4 a change. Being by the trime spring gets here I should be able to crack the whip as some would say on getting stuff done I have a LOT of work I want to get done next yr BUT? ? I am running into brick walls & it's not cause of the $ but the people around here just don't want to work I've hired 2 people since I've been home & that's it. 1 lives within a 100 ft of me but he keeps loading up his plate with other work than to just work for me I pay what I think the job is worth like 500 $ to put a small floor down & replace a toilet, 4 hr job. Paid another guy a 1000$ to put a kitch, hallway & laundry room floor in, & a vapor cover to seal the cabin kitchen & bathroom ceiling & that's all the work I've gotton done since I've been home. I don't get the concept of people any more, it boggles my mind how people treat people when they know they need help & willing to pay them. It may come down to doing it ourselves KNOWING that's not a smart wise idea when your in your late 70's with a bad heart high blood presure, not good. I need a roof put over the back deck, need a parking spot done for our 85 dodge van to make room in the yard, out of the way of the driveway, need a awning put infront of the cabin to park under in bad weather. I'll figure something out I always do when I'm on a mission like this, God will make it happen on his time while the witer is upon us I will use this time to work on getting stronger with every passing day.

I hope you can accomplish all these things. As for me, I need to make another checklist as my New Year's resolution. All I know is that I need to work harder than this year.

@2ndchances24 I am sure you can figure them out. It is not easy, but we can do it.

@2ndchances24 It would frustrate me too trying to get some help even after offering payment!

Yeah well people say they need the $ but they don't want to work to get it so I'm done trying to help people with trying to get stuff done around here as you will see in my latest post on here, I've gotten somewhat better at trying to help husband as much as I can but that still doesn't help like I was HOPING we would get from people saying they would help.

It's tough all around, as the saying goes. Hopefully you can get the people you need to get the needed work done. But people willing to work is just not as easy as it used to be to find. We know who we can thank for that.
