Reply #47: I have an amazingly tight knit neighborhood

[Texasgal]

We pull together all of the time. I had a neighbor down the street that had heart surgery, she was alone. We neighbors pulled together walked her dogs daily and made tons of casseroles and breads for her while she was on the mend. Just yesterday I gave away all of my turkey leftovers to a family down the street (I am a veggie now days ). My hisband could only eat so much so we shared.

We help with each others yards, watch kids, check mail, watch each others homes while away.

We live in a very modest older neighborhood. We are not rich at all. We all band because we know we need to. I am so very lucky to live here.
