For 6 years i had a helper to maintain my home and property. He had retired early, was spry and bored and wanted something to do for pocket money, but this Spring he moved to florida. He came once or twice a week, in total 5-8 hours per week, May to October, outdoor work. Trimmed trees and bushes, sprayed and pulled weeds, transplanted stuff. Power washed decks, small painting projects, etc.
