Simple Living (Part 5)

The old saying, “Many hands make light work,” is certainly true among the Amish. At work frolics and barn raisings there’s always more than enough help to get the job done. Even for things like preparing meals, cleaning the house, and doing outside chores, everyone chips in. Try getting together with some of your friends or family to do yard or household chores. It will get done much faster, and you’ll enjoy the fellowship that comes with working together.

I have certainly appreciated the help I’ve received from my own family while I am healing from a painful broken arm. What was the last thing you and your family did to help one another?

Cindy Sadly, in my family, since my dad has passed away, I'm the one having to do everything for everyone else in my family. 😪 I do ask, sometimes for assistance in small things, but no help in return. My health isn't the greatest, yet I'm the one doing all the work. I'm my mom's chauffer to doctor appts & getting groceries, sometimes I'm the one that has to drive her to KY(3hr) to visit her side of family.
Don't get me wrong, I don't mind helping, but it's the fact no one wants to return the favor to me😪. That's life, crazy & chaotic😂😂
