When I got back T was looking over the wreckage and said, "I think we can fix this."
I said ,"You can't lift this by yourself."
"Sure ," he said ."My wife and I can lift it. She lifts weights."
So he went to his shop and got a few tools and supplies. He stabilized the shed. He rigged up a safety device that their daughter controlled and T and D grabbed the shed and up it went.
Well I was pleased the shed was standing.
But T didn't stop there. He moved it back into the original slots. He put in a few more screws and added some braces to strengthen the shed. D looked at it and said' "The doors even fit."
So I was more than pleased as my garden shed was in better condition than before. Now I won't have to build a shed in the spring.
These neighbors have been unbelievable helpful. I wondered why? I finally thought that they are both paramedics. Their whole world is helping people. So I am most thankful to benefit from their kindness.
Your neighbors sound like a true blessing. So glad they were able to put your shed back up again.
ReplyDeleteThey are committed to helping people and I think paramedics are, in general just very competent people who are able to turn their hands to many tasks.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great result from knocking your shed down!
Good neighbours indeed.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thing for your neighbours to do. Somehow, something that has been repaired and given new life is more precious than something brand new!
ReplyDeleteThey deserve to find a Tims care in their mailbox. 😀
ReplyDeleteThat is what each of us was put here for, Red: to do good. Your neighbors sound like they understand this.
ReplyDeleteIn my neck of the woods, that is just what neighbors do.
ReplyDeletePeople in health care do tend to step up and help people I've found. I'm glad you have them as neighbors and glad your shed survived.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! You are so lucky to have such caring (and strong!) neighbors. I'm glad a new shed has been crossed off your to do list.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is awesome. So glad your shed could be saved.
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a great day!
That is good news indeed! I suspect you did your share of helping whatever neighbours needed a hand over the years, and now it is your turn to be on the receiving end. That is a true community.
ReplyDeleteAll neighbors should be like that! There is no reason not to help someone who needs help. I'm glad it all turned out for the better, Red!
ReplyDeleteExcellent news! I'm so glad you saved your shed and saved yourself the trouble of rebuilding it!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have good neighbors!
ReplyDeleteYou have great neighbours!
ReplyDeleteThat's great! You have the right neighbors for that job. They knew what they were doing, had the tools and the skill, and the strength! and they actually wanted to help!
ReplyDeleteHeartwarming!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful neighbours T & D are - to repair the shed like that. Perhaps you should buy them something nice to say "thank you". If you can't think of anything else - how about book tokens?
