A friend suggested to get a drill so I can do some work on my own, but I am not sure if I would know how to use it properly... maybe if I get it I could ask a neighbor to come and just drill a few holes to hang the pictures and the shelf... Though I got ladders last weekend... ohh dear I was so happy cause they were one of the last bits I missed here... so I used them to clean all those high places I never was able to reach and finally, I fell... my foot slipped right through two steps so I ended down on the floor, but all went well considering... just a few bruises here and there... for all the wrong reasons...  Joking a little, not in love with bruises, as not in love with too much pain, but some nice light marks would be lovely to wear sometimes...

It’s not that hard . They have all types of fasteners for whatever surface you are mounting to.

Ex, there has to be a hardware store somewhere near you that sells a assortment of 'hooks' of all different sizes for hanging farmed pictures on you wall, and all you'll need is a measuring tape, a small level and a hammer for that task...wish I was nearby, I'd be by to look at all the problems you mentioned concerning your living place, without any inappropriateness, including the boiler, was in the plumbing and A/C business years ago, and am always willing to lend a hand, even to strangers in the neighborhood, good way to make new friends...does Amazon deliver where you are, they have 'picture hanging hooks' you can order and they'll deliver to you?

I've had my own issues with a leaky roof. I got a quote so we'll just wait and see when they can get to me. I'm pretty self-sufficient but climbing the ladder to the second story is just not for me.

Please, find it out what type of building material consists of your wall before trying to make a hole on it. Some bricks contains hollows (Itong bricks here in Central Europe) which don't tolerate drilling and hanging something up onto. If the brick has holes, you shall not hang anything onto it. You have to make/buy a separate picture/bookshelf holder or make legs onto them.

Perhaps your son, with or without one of his friends, could lend a hand? If not, I'm sure there are handymen who advertise for doing odd jobs around people's homes. For your safety, perhaps have a friend or work colleague come over for tea or something while the workman is there to ensure your safety. If you promise to wear that outfit in the photo and stand on your ladder, I will personally fly over there and get all your chores accomplished. I could probably even provide some bruises de jour.

I have three cordless drills and one corded one. If we lived close, I would be happy to do he book shelf. I would not mess with roof tile, shingles or such. But I am fixing old leak damage from a tornado that went through here 25 or so years ago. Hope you find the right sorts to do the work you are not comfortable doing.

You could also ask a handy woman? If you dont like the idea, of a strange man in your house, wich i perfectly understand. There are a lot of women, who know how to use a drill and other tools.... I would like to be your handy lady! 😊😄 If i lived close to you... 🙏😘 There are also good info movies on Y~ tuu... for DIY.

Reading how to, as opposed to actually doing the task at hand, always has different variables. Sometimes one does more harm than good when doing a simple job. Call the guy again and if he puts you off, ask him if he knows anyone else who he would recommend you could get to help you.
