I Worked Until EXHAUSTION! Free Yard Makeover For The NICEST Couple You'll Ever Meet!

    First and most importantly, one of the great things about doing this kind work is getting the opportunity to meet people. This time I met very fine people. Chelsea and Mike are the kind of people you'd be lucky to have as friends.
    Chelsea in her mid 20's having open heart surgery and given a titanium heart valve; her husband Mike picking up a 2nd job to pay medical bills and everything else......these two needed help and they DESERVED some help. I was very happy to give a day of my life to give them a reprieve. No lawn job lasts forever but if it gives them a week or two of happiness, if it allows them to pull into the driveway and smile rather than be reminded of "work that needs to be done", then it's totally worth it.
    When I went and scoped out the job I noticed their dog had turned their backyard into a squishy mine field, if you know what I mean. I told them, "you pick up the Tootsie Rolls and I'll do the work." They didn't miss ONE! Very thankful for that.
    So all the perfectionists who like to point out missed opportunities or things done wrong, you'll have plenty to comment about. My goal was to do as much as I could in one day.....all by myself.....and hopefully make them smile at the end, and I got that in spades!! It's not always about perfection, the best tools, etc. etc., it's about trying your hardest to bless people. I think I did that. So I'll try very hard to bite my tongue on the "you shoulda...." comments. :)
    Such a pleasure meeting these two. Them and the others I've helped - THEY are what this page is about.
    If you'd like to "buy me a coffee" and support the work I'm doing, you're really paying it forward yourself, which is so kind of you! Here is the link: buymeacoffee.com/upnorthmowin...

    There's more to do so this was just "the first wave". WAY more work than could be accomplished in 1 day. Fear not friends, we'll have a follow-up to this one. I have some ideas. (don't tell Chelsea or Mike). 😂 By the way, I LOVE deleting rude and insensitive comments and blocking them. It's one of my great joys in life.

      You made a big difference already! Good job. I'm sure that took a lot of stress off of this couple. Thanks for all you do! I was thinking they need more stones like they had on the side in the space around their mailbox or perhaps some red mulch. Not that you have to provide that of course, I was just visualizing how nice that would look and it would be less for them to have to care for.

      I appreciate that Jason. Yeah I was totally spent after this one. I couldn't wait to get home and get in my recliner. I called my wife and asked if she wanted me to bring some dinner home so we could chill and she said, "we have that birthday party to go to, remember?" Ugh! I had forgot. I went home, showered, and headed right back out for a party. I was on fumes and almost fell asleep by the bonfire! 😂 Getting old will do that to a person!
