My new neighbor

So I have a new neighbor who just moved in, across the street from me.  He is young, and very nice, and he has alot of adult toys for men and I don't mean the sex toys!


I asked him where he got his sand from because I needed some....not very much but am willing to buy a truckload to get enough for a small project.  No problem, he said.  Next thing I knew, there is a bucket loader parked in front of my house with him sitting in the driver's seat. So I ran outside and told him where to dump it and he said, "no, no, no!  Put your wheel barrow under the bucket and I'll fill it up for you. Less work, that way"!  What a nice guy!  


He said he had more then he needed so he brought me over a second bucket full which turned out to be just enough!  I was so happy.  My neighbor shares his dirt with me and his rocks (second project)  and he is willing to lighten the load on my body!  I have a feeling we are going to get along just fine!


All I can say is, Thankyou Jesus for sending me some help!

Sun, Yes, me too. It seems, The older I get, the less I want to do when I have to do it alone.

Well, me too! I'm glad everyone is happy. I'm happy also. Isn't life much more enjoyable when you're not focused on how you're going to destroy yourself next.
Stay happy and healthy all! Doing great here, even losing weight (reducing carbs). Down to 238 from 256 in a month exactly.
I learned the other day that Quid Quo Pro (Latin) actually means This For That.
Goes both ways. I help my neighbors and they are very quick to help me as well.

glad you asked where he got the sand....sounds like guy with lots of money to burn....selling him wood to get into woodworking projects might be good payback if you discount it

A ""GG"" for sure! God Grace/Gratitude all rolled into one! Happy For You!
On my retreat, I had a GG, a "Maine Man" meeting...I've not dated for 20 years!

@just4me You've got that right! ........ are you on the keto diet? I need to lose 40 pounds.

@Gonefornow I am really happy for you!

@billwfriend Bill he works as a dog groomer so he really isn't that well off but all the folks who give him business help him out because he is such a likable guy.. I am going to offer to help him build his garage but he has such a big crew coming this weekend to work on it, he may not need me.

@miro853 You will have to tell me more about those retreats :)

What a great neighbor, bob. I just got a new neighbor who's a great guy, too. It's a wonderful thing, isn't it?

Bob, that is amazing. So happy he is helping you out. Good neighbours are precious. Bring him some coffee and muffins when they are working on the garage. Hugs

@mujicaptsd He is a good example of "Love thy neighbor"

@Atpeacemary That's a good idea, I just might do that.

Oh, the blessings shared through this are world-wide! I got warm fuzzies reading this and knowing that everyone can see the goodness in sharing with neighbors!

I'm thrilled that your neighbor is a good one, and that he is wanting to be a part of the community! Helping you is a gift that each of us appreciate!

I know. My new neighbor's a guy named Francisco, bob, and he has a motorcycle like I do and so we share the path inside the gate of the complex where I live to the duplex we share. It's really cool to have a guy like me as a neighbor.
