Q

I like your tripod. Can I ask which it is?

@@markyou-yubebird5776 I did, Mark, but you replied first. 😀

I gotta ask do you know any of the street outlaws guys??

AMEN!

While my husband was dying here at our home our 80+ year old neighbors came over and mowed our yard.

Hats off to your dad

The world needs more fathers like yours. I'm glad you have him as an example. Consider yourself blessed to have such a good role model in your life. That increases YOUR chances of a productive future exponentially.✌🖖✌️

I am renalinsuffisance. I could mow my backyard my neighbor did it for me..all 3 summers. So I bought sweets for his grand children and made cakes. I gave some of (laurier, thym, romarin, menthe ...etc..qui poussent dans mon jardin)

Are you asking your neighbour's for help or just complaining when they don't offer?

@@joecampbell8348 my exact thought

@@joecampbell8348 asking? Why would they have to ask? You see your neighbor in need and help them. What's your real problem?

Yes. Some people don't know what it's like, but life can change that and often does. Empathy is in short supply lately. I hope someone helps her maintain it. This man is truly a good guy.

@85 Testarossa good neighbors are hard to find....on both sides of the fence apparently....🙄

The fact he's a cop is irrelevant and doesn't make him responsible for his neighbor's yard no more than the neighbor on the other side of this lady's house. If you own a house you know you have a responsibility to maintain it.

@@rogersmith7808 except police are supposed to be shining examples of community...I guess you missed where she was disabled as well...that or you lack a heart and a soul...good luck with that 👍🏼

@@rogersmith7808 I never said that it makes him responsible for his neighbor's lawn. What I was trying to covey was that if that officer had any compassion, he would have taken it upon himself to help the neighbor. I would have.

Nancy, I second that. That was a LOT of dirty work. I hope he doesn’t have ALLERGIES, or if he does, he took his meds, I have severe allergies,& just watching him made my eyes water. May he be Blessed ❗️

We all need help sometimes. If we share the load, life isn't as heavy.

Being older doesn't mean the younger generation owes you stuff for free. If you're not mentally or physically capable of keeping up with your homestead than you need to move to some where that suitable for your needs

@@llamacebu216 You'll be old one day my friend. I'm 34 and you should always help your elderly people. It's not about owing somebody something. It's about doing something kind when nobody's looking. With no expectations of something in return. Life's not about money.

@@puckered6036 As a zoomer myself: I despise being a zoomer.

and fire safe

It’s called being a good person. Imagine if our whole country spent a few hours helping someone. Where I’m from in East Tennessee, my little town of Parrottsville, my neighbors in particular help each other, with no pay accepted. Cows out, tree down, tractor tore up. If it’s gonna rain, take your hay bailer and help them finish. It all works out in the end. All things whatsoever ye that men should do onto you , do ye even so to them. Whatever is hurtful to you do not to another person.

@@anthonymason8034 You clearly come from a community of kind and thoughtful people.It really is good-no,great-to know that there are still people out there who are helping each other instead of hurting each other.

@@ivanolsen7966 Yes! Excellent point!

That really was a blessing that was really nice

Calling people heartless for not randomly helping a stranger without even knowing their situation is kind of short-sited and ignorant, don't you think ? There is a reason for everything, maybe the disabled woman wasn't social, maybe the neighbors didn't even know she was disabled and assumed she just didn't care her front garden was ugly.

​@@greenstarsage9627 I was going to say something similar. For all we know the neighbors are going through their own stuff and barely getting by enough to keep their own lawn in check

L???(? N⁹

The neighbor is a cop after all. They don't give 2 F's about anyone unless they off camera beating them. They all dirty

Maybe the neighbors didn’t know her situation?? My neighbor, i recently found out passed, he passed almost a month ago. But i never seen him out and about before so i didn’t think anything abnormal.

And looked like police lived next door.

Yes they do, but he's a cop in a near by town, so maybe he only protects and serves in that town. Lol

We don't know the back story of how it got like this. We do know that Josh stepped in and helped the lady out. Thanks for doing this, Josh, and for letting us go along for the ride. The back story isn't as important as the fact that you took care of a need.

@@wendydix5534 I would suspect after the stress of working his shift, which is never done after 8 hours, he had his own things to accomplish before probably going to a second job.

That was my first thought as well.. I sure would have helped her .. I’ll never understand why people aren’t more thoughtful/ helpful in cases like this . It’s called compassion for others .

Josh ... You need to wear a mask when you are edging and blowing ... There are all kinds of toxic stuff in that dust cloud ... Mikie

@@mikierp I agree...save your lungs, Josh!

Great Job You might consider a Teen to Help with the Clean Up Part Worth the Money and Time 👏👏👍

@@doratiscareno5856 x

Why was there a cop car in driveway? 🤔

Thank you, I will keep on helping.

That was a very nice job. That did not look like a city yard. More like a hay field. You would think for fire safety it would not be allowed to get so neglected. 👍👍👍👍

@@joshslawnservice you are a wonderful person God Bless you!

I myself am disabled can't see to drive they dilated my eyes now three times in a month the government won't help the elderly so thank you very much for helping this lady she really will be very happy I know I would be great job keep up the good work

Xxcczcggz

Yes!!! I hate it when they don't properly clean up. Growing up, we did free yard work for sick elderly quite often with only a push mower, a rake, a wheelbarrel, . Oh have times changed

What’s the deal with the dead beat cop that occupies the space next door?

@@CarpeDiezNutz I was wondering about the police car too

@@CarpeDiezNutz why is he a "dead beat?"

@@rediron44 go ask to your mom.

@@CarpeDiezNutz you’re a dum f*+^. Doubt you work 12 hours shifts then come home and do other peoples work for them. Yea. Lady is disabled but ALL her other neighbors haven’t done 💩 either. Wait. I bet you are one of the other neighbors. Hey. You don’t work. I’m sure you could mosey out of your moms basement and she would have been proud of you doing that for her. But hey. Glass houses.

You have no idea what the situation is. Maybe that elderly lady has been the biggest asshole neighbor the entire time they have been neighbors. Maybe she was a dick to their kids or poisoned their dog because she didn't like the barking. Age means nothing. The fact that her lawn looks like that tells me she is such an insufferable human being that in her old age no one she has had in her life cared enough about her to help take care of her now that she can't take care of herself. It took the charity of a stranger to get anything done.

Amen

Agree

Gonna need you address

Yes...times have changed. It's just someone who lives next to you, doesn't know, and doesn't care society.

Thank you, and no problem. Now that lawn season is over I have plenty of time to find more of these.

Good job......need more caring people like you in this world....no greater feeling!

Where's her family.... Probably will fight over the house once she passes but won't lift a finger to maintain it while she is alive

It shouldn't have gotten thus bad if her neighbors would have helped.

Sve 5 dobro radis ividise to ali stavi masku nemoj udisati oticeti pluca od ❤ ti zelimo puno zdravlja pozdrav Croatia❤

Unfortunately the way the world is now, the neighbours wouldn't even know who lives next door. Let alone help them. It is becoming a very sad world we live in now.

And ones a cop! Great civil service

I tried helping my neighbor out when they went on an extended vacation (so it looked like someone was home). They threatened me with a lawsuit. While this situation is likely different with the older person, their family may be different. You just can't tell about people, unfortunately.

Cop next door....shameful!

This guy is a kind and beautiful person for doing this for a disabled person. I imagine that it was hard for her to ask for help since she wasn't able to do it herself. She shouldn't have had to though. The neighbors should've stepped in. Now she can be proud of her yard and it's all thanks to your hard work. You did an amazing job. You didn't just cut the grass but you made the yard look pretty. Glad this video was recommended. Definitely subscribing to the channel.

Yes each homeowner to each side of her could mow half !!!! A yard that small would not take up much of their time!!! Doing something for someone else feels so good and when they get old maybe someone will help them!!! To everyone that said that cop did not need to help her!! He must not be a very kind person not to help someone with cancer!!!!!

Yeah, how dare all those neighbors have their own lives and things to deal with, huh? Shameless people man, dealing with their own properties and family issues. How dare they not let their own lives dwindle while going out and helping everyone else. F'n selfish people man, F their own lives, go help others.

@@marcuslinton310 Lol, 15 minutes of mowing when they are already mowing their own yard would hardly make their lives dwindle.

​@@timhartsock9942 Most small lawns take around 30 minutes if push mowed and how many lawns are these neighbors required to cut by your new mandate? Neighbors on both sides, plus across the street and on each side there? What is the required radius for no longer being required to help? 3 houses down is out of bounds? 4... 5? What is the age at which you aren't required to help?

What’s even worse, someone had to actually complain to get the City after her in the first place! Guessing the cop next door. The neighbours should be disgusted and embarrassed with their total ignorance and lack of empathy! They should all take up a collection for a yard service for her, and apologize! It’s the very LEAST they should do!

You hit the nail on the head! When they were out cutting theirs how much effort would it have been to go straight across and get at least the front cut.

It's called LAZY and UNCARING! They might not get but 1 pat on the back so they ignore until it's convenient.

I didn't see her family doing the yard work either.

The lady could have hired a landscaper to keep the lawn decent.

@@michaelmullin3585 have you read all the other comments? They're across the spectrum from 'the cop next door should do it' to 'the neighbors are all bad people for not doing it' and no one knows the full story. Josh is doing a good deed and you never know, he might get yelled at for going on the property without permission. I have seen the best of intentions paid back with brutal harshness and negativity, and I have seen people be so grateful it made me feel embarrassed. We can only hope that the old soul is a gracious one and or her family might be. Either way, Josh is building good Karma by paying it forward. So, I subbed to the channel to help him out too....

Me too, I love doing these overgrown yards and like removing sod from sidewalks. I get so burnt out mowing the normal yards week after week.

That's the best part I love that he really cleans up

What legitimate landscaping business leaves it all behind?! I'd never hire them. 👀

@@t54df12 landscaping companies in my area do it all the time. One I worked for years ago would cut it and move on; no bagging no cleanup besides blowing the debris off of pavement. If someone requested it there would be an extra fee but we would do it. The general consensus around here is that the decomposing clippings is good for the grass - idk if its true.

@@jerrywest9192 it is good for the grass. Gives it a little boost once broken down. In my area no one does that though, they want it to look clean. Some states dont allow it, too. Some states all you have to do is blow a pile to the front and the city would pick it up also. I guess it depends on the state and then also the customer.

Good publicity.

❤❤❤ indeed!

Realistic ???? LoL what else would you call it ?! I mean the dude literally has a camera right there filming what he is doing ! Most realistic LoL

@@dewalt4594 Most don’t show the actual work that clearly! lol

@Repent or you will likewise perish. are you ok??

@@welshlyn9097 I see you have met the religious bot, one of the siblings of the scam bot and attention seeking bot. I do my best to report them but it seems that reporting does no help at all.

All someone has to do is ask for help to receive it. I'm sure her neighbors probably weren't mind readers.

My parents help out neighbors whenever they need it. Even if they don't ask but need help they'll get it. During a storm my neighbor had a tree that fell over in his driveway. We let him use ours and the next day a bunch of teens/kids in the neighborhood borrowed their parents tools and helped cut it out of the driveway. Some of them even took some of the wood for firewood. Some parents were out there helping to clear the driveway. It was done in a about a day with all the help they had. My dad even went out of his way and helped cut down the tree in that was in the road instead of having someone come out. There were downed power lines so he had them shut off power to them before cutting it out of the road. My dad is friends with the neighbor and they'll help eachother out sometimes even when no one asked for help. They'll go out of their way to help out other neighbors when they can too.

@@Machiave11i Maybe not for the habitual won't do anything for themselves types but, for most people it is very difficult / embarrassing to ask for assistance. Pride is a bitch...

Guessing the neighbors are the ones who called in the code violation to the city.

@@paveltolz6601 It may seem like pride but I think it's more embarrassment and a bit of wrongly felt shame. It's tough to need to ask. If you have to, you feel like you're creating an imposition.

Thank you for writing something positive. People in these comments are so quick to judge...i.e. neighbors and police officer 😑 sheesh 😳 😬

Unfortunately I don't know her and probably never will. I would like to see the reaction when she gets home.

@@joshslawnservice I hope she or someone who knows her finds this video and is able to respond.

How does one repay a kindness that is given from the heart without any thought of reward.

God will repay his kindness when he gets to heaven!!!

@@garyhughes4326 - Homemade cookies!

Mulching has a purpose

@@FierceZs1 100% Jake. I mulch my yard as well.

You're only cutting 2 or 3 inches off. He's cutting a foot or more. Makes a difference. No telling how much weed seed heads in growth that high.

Watch Blade Mate or Tim the Lawnmower Man

Amen! I hate to see it “mulched up”. It takes months to break down and often leaves little dead patches in the lawn. When you have that much growth, it needs to be taken off the lawn and put in a compost heap

Yes it does. She is disabled and you set yourself up as judge and jury. Shameful is what you are. You might try using some caring in your life for once. He is not getting paid to do these yards.

@@barbarapatterson4132 I'm confused now. Why do you say that?. Maybe you didn't read and understand what Marcos wrote?

@@LFBsmokealarm Thanks for understanding that I was congratulating Josh for stepping up and taking care of a need. I am not sure how I became a judge, much less a jury. But I hope it's obvious that Josh is the man!

@@marcosmaisterra4477 I'm with you on that buddy.

@@LFBsmokealarm I'm wondering if B.P. comment got posted to the wrong place... I think her comment would likely be a reply to @Craig's negative put-down comments towards Josh.

Thank you

Thank you, it wasn't to bad, a little over an hour. I'm sure the mower cut down the time though.

Same here 20 years!!! Great job👍👍

Why did they wait so long to take care of this?

Crazy I have recognized a couple other channels being in Oklahoma too from the surroundings. I need to run into more code enforcement people. I’ve given my number to one to pass out to people but haven’t heard anything.

Yes, you would think a neighbor knowing the situation would step up and keep the yard tidy for the lady. However, we are in a time that most people don't want to be bothered by other peoples' problems.

In my 40s I used to take my little craftsman riding mower around our neighborhood and mow the irrigation ditches in front of everybody's house to help drainage and just made the neighborhood look better. I loved mowing and I mowed the neighbors yard next to me. But I'm 72 now and have to pay someone to mow and edge and weed-eat ours. There aren't neighbors now like they were back then.

@@lydialedbetter2041 I'm really surprised that your kindness didn't rub off on more people.

@@kittyhawk7060 That's pretty sad though.

@@lydialedbetter2041 A Big AMEN to THAT

Thank you very much. I will keep making them.

The neighbor is one of the 'protect and serve' guys. Doesn't do either one. He's probably the one that got her the violation notice in the first place.

@@rjb2626 Yea, he was too busy looking for f-r-e-e coffee and doughnuts to help a disabled elderly neighbor. 👮 ☕️ 🍩

Thank you

I noticed the neighbor works in the Sheriff’s department. Doesn’t speak well of THAT neighbor either.

🎯

Guy nextvdoor to us had MS. Mowed his nature strip and frontyard as part of Saturday chores. But we don't have ignorant HOA's who have no idea about mulching and mandate you rake up grass clippings. They're yards not golfing greens.

Not many teenagers around to help do things anymore

@@tww6488 The few that do , only do a half azzed job, because they aren’t taught any thing by the parents. I am speaking from experience. It is pretty sad.

Patricia, not just older women or widows, widowers, older men, Anyone disabled. You can't tell by looking at me that I'm sick and dying because I'm a 52 year old that looks 42. However, my looks are very decieving, my liver is dying and not from being a drunkard. I was not a drinker. It was from disease from a blood transfusion or from being sex trafficked and raped, along with autoimmune diseases and medications to treat illnesses. Older, white, women, (karens) give me menacing scowls all the time when they see me unable to lift things. I was also paralyzed for several years and unable to even walk. The second I was abled to walk in a public place again, old, white, womens dirty looks returned. I sometimes feel like white women believe disabled men should just kill themselves.

There might be more parts in the future, I'm sure I'll be back in this neighborhood next year. I made 4 videos in here last 2 weeks, I'm sure there are many more in the summertime.

@@joshslawnservice I’m sure, I have no doubt! It felt like this yard went on and on and couldn’t be covered in just one video 😄

Penny. We HOPE her family will be GRATEFUL for Josh doing this for their mother, even though she was staying with family, they should have hired someone to take care of her yard. Too many people are so ungrateful & uncaring, it’s unreal.

@@hummingbird275 ...but complain in a heartbeat

@@maureenobrien9815 Yes, for sure!

Thank you very much, your name is hilarious.

What used to really bug me was when you would try and help out, cut someone's grass maybe a little here and a little there and they would get upset because you didn't do it all at one time. I was cutting a vacant lot across the street in the city and old lady next door was upset with me because I only cut it as needed and didn't CUT IT ON REGULAR SCHEDULE. Then when I tried growing some vegetables in the lot she decided to try and cut it herself so she could then drive her mower over my garden. Something was wrong with that woman.

Because the cop is part of public service. He/she should have alerted someone within the city. This yard didn't just grow overnight. And shame on all the neighbors. Sad that no one cares anymore for anyone but themselves. I do understand what you said and agree also.

yeah, the officer may already have his life full what with kids, wife, hardworking. And who knows what his work hours are or or whether his wife works or if maybe he has a lawn service for his yard

@@leecarey4375 I can see where both Opinions come from, I do not Blame the cop what so ever though, we don't know what kind of hours he's working right now. He could be putting in 80 hours per week but I do agree its sad that not one neighbor could have stepped up before it got this bad. SMH

Hahahahaha 🤣

@@leecarey4375 typical cop

A neighbor could just mow it when they mow their own lawn, knowing she’s unable to take care of it herself. SMH. My neighbors take care of me, yes I pay them a little something. But the point is they offered to mow, knowing I could not. And when my next door neighbor moved out, the neighbor across the street stepped up to take care of my lawn.

Ningún vecino se le acercó con una gaseosa fresca o agua

Thank you Clyde, can't wait for stuff to start growing again. Not much worth recording for next couple months.

Here is another idea, after I retired I gave my assistance to a growing family. Yes, for free. One day a week, I would come for 4hrs and help mother with anything. I would encouraged her to have coffee with friends or shop without her kids ( 2 toddler, 1 newborn). I am still there 16yrs later and total of 9 kids. Most people know single mom or dad, they need a break but can not afford to pay someone. I have what I needed (not rich, tight budget) and could not ask for more. I feel so blessed doing this, I wish more people would try this. 😊😊😊

Thank you, I can't wait to do some more of these for people that really need it.

Where I live, the city doesn't allow tall weeds.

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for all you do, God bless you and your family..
