Recently, while I was extremely sick with a bad case of bronchial pneumonia, my neighbour, who I don't know too well, came around and brought a whole bunch of pre cooked meals for my family. She also shopped for me a few times, picked up my daughter from school, etc.
I was so surprised and how thoughful she was, and was thinking of a way to pay her back now that I'm back on my feet.
Anyway, she's mentioned a few times how she can't get her yard in order, flowerbeds, etc, because she's so busy at work. I'm a pretty keen gardener, so I've thought of offering to do some yard work for her, including planting some nice flowers that I could buy for her.
Do you think she would understand the gesture, or would it be considered rude, as if I was offended by her yard or something (which I'm not)?
