Dear Queenie,
We have an elderly neighbor who lives alone and comes by almost every day needing some sort of help around her house or a ride to go somewhere.
Queenie, how can we get her to not bother us so often?—Wanting some privacy
Dear Wanting,
Your neighbour seems lonely and probably cannot do the things she asks you to help her with. It is okay to sometimes tell her you are too busy and to ask her to chip in for gas when she needs a ride.
Meanwhile, are there other neighbours or friends of hers who can pitch in to help her?
