NHLib, this request was submitted through Snowcrew.org powered by SeeClickFix.

Snowcrew.org is a mobile optimized web app that connects people who need help shoveling with nearby neighbors “Yetis/Volunteers” who can and want to help dig out their neighbors after snowstorms.

If you someone you know in New Haven can help, this neighbor would certainly appreciate it.

NHlib: I did hire someone who turned out to be totally unreliable. I care for my 89-year-old mother who has dementia. I am an young 66-year-old who normally does the shoveling, but am dealing with breast cancer and daily radiation treatments, at least for the next three weeks. That's my story.

To the gentleman who made the comment about this request and how this person should hire someone. I do understand that you may not have realized where this request originated from, however I do believe that your comment was inappropriate.
maybe you should not be so quick to make snarky remarks. You may need this sort of help one day and we may be the ones to receive your request.

I completely agree and am astonished at the hard-heartedness displayed by some people. People in the Cove need to create an association like the East Rock folks did, modeled after the Beacon Hill in Boston. We will join together to purchase services in bulk from contractors. Then, we can all age in place as long as we are able. If interested, come to our Management Team meeting and let's get it started . We need to help one another.
Meantime--- contact Perrelli Landscaping at 203-927-2120 for help. There is also a great young man named Josh near you---203-589-8148.

Many thanks for your kind comments and support. I agree that creating community support is essential especislly in these challenging economic times. I look forward to meeting with you and others on the area.

I agree with all. I moved here from Fair Haven where we had (have) a very strong community and the sentiment NHLib puts forth is not welcome.

Guest...
Can you let us know when the management team meeting is.

I intend to bring this issue up and start looking at what East Rock did with the association. Time for me to stop yakking and start doing something about our issues in the Cove. I wish I could help you myself but my back injury helped me learn the lesson you are facing now. I understand your struggle and sympathize with you

2nd Tuesday of the month, 7 p.m. at the Cove Fire Station...... unless it snows!!!! You are very welcome. Please do come and join us.

Thanks Guest! As long as kid care works out I will be there!

Closing out dated issues.
