I love to help someone else clean up, for a couple of reasons: I might learn a thing or two, I could build some momentum, and I'd like to "pay forward" some of the help I've received. I even dreamed that my neighbors and I organized a rotating work party," where we'd go to each other's houses and help clean up. That got me thinking:
How about members living in the Willamette Valley? Would any of you be interested in participating, either by going to another member's house, or having us come to you ?
I could drive up to 100 miles, can drive a pickup (but don't own one,) have a spot-bot, an upright carpet shampooer, and a shop-vac. I love to do yard work, and prefer cleaning kitchens and bathrooms. I don't need a work party at my house, but I'd be willing to pick up any non-drivers in the valley.

I would--the only challenge is that my car isn't very road worthy. Is there anyone in Eugene or nearby who would let me carpool? Weekends while my daughter is at her father's would be best.
I've got allergies and asthma, so if there is lots of animal fur, dust or mold where we are headed--I would need to know that in advance. Sometimes, with a pre-dose of Claritin and a face mask I can do ok. (That's what I do around here before I start in on a furry or dusty area.)

Heheh Hope, I'm fine with it--but because I still have so much shame, I'm sorry, your non-squalorous family can't come with you. Your immediate family who lives with you is fine. (When do I get over being ashamed?)
