So, Thanksgiving, 1pm-6pm, and the following Friday until mid-afternoon, will, in my home, be devoted to cleaning and organizing, including finishing summer flood clean-up. If youve seen my posts lately, you know Ive been having some significant health issues. This have taken a lot of time and money, and Im low on stamina. My house badly needs cleaning and organizing. If you want and are able to help with this project, I would greatly appreciate it. Any of the following would be helpful: -Bringing a meal, so I can focus on projects and not on cooking and washing up (my kitchen is kosher; I also have a non-kosher microwave) -organizing games and toys and clothes -folding and sorting laundry -picking up a bag or two of old clothes to take away with you and dispose of in some way. There are also some random household goods that have to go away. (if you want to donate and take a tax deduction, you are welcome to it; I dont itemize) -schlepping stuff up and down stairs (there have been some ways when Ive been kind of unsteady on stairs; most days are fine, but help would be appreciated, especially if t-giving turns out to be a less-good day physically.) -inviting my kids over to play, especially if you can pick up and/or drop off (If our kids know each other from school, my kids are too shy to play with new people in a play date type setting) -sitting with me and keeping me company/on-task while I work. -cleaning up, photographing, and listing some items on CL for sale Im making this post publicly viewable, please share. I understand that most of my fb friends are not in Oak Park and its not practical to travel for this, so, Oak Park area people, Id super-extra appreciate if you share this around. A lot of people in the frum community probably dont even know me, but still. Your help would be appreciated. Im not direly ill; my house isnt totally squalorous; Im not desperately poor. It isnt like that at all. But Im also not just asking for help because I dont feel like doing it alone. I work a lot of hours, Im a single parent of two kids with minimal child support, Ive spent a lot of time feeling unwell lately, and Ive spent even more time sitting in medical offices and then working late nights to make up the time. I cant afford to hire help, and Im really, really tired. If my house was organized and tidy and less cluttered with things I need to get rid of, life would be easier and more pleasant. Help would, yknow, help. Kthnxbai....
