awww kelly i hope all is ok with you and that by now you have found someone to help you.  Your always so helpful to us.  I wish i was within a couple hours of you i would certainly be there to help you.  I also only have my husband and 17 year old daughter to help me out and sometimes its so frustrating to have to ask for help from them.  Swallow your pride and just do it though.  They don't know you don't need anything (and ditto to them) if you don't ask.  Hope your doing better and please check in from time to time.  

Kelly,
In just the short amount of time I have been here you have come through for me already several times.  Look at all of the friends you have here and it's sad that most of us live so very far away or you might have a house full of helpers. I cant imagine you dont have friends living near you that would be more than willing to help if you would only ask.  Some people dont offer because they feel as if they are "intruding" in your life. 

 Hi Kelly,
Perhaps if you think about this another way, it may help... Consider a request for help as giving people an opportunity to earn merit.

I bet you would drop everything and help a friend and not mind and indeed feel good about it. That's what you are offering your friends and acquaintances when you ask for help.

If I lived closer, I would help.
