Bingo, Sam! I agree. Your cleaning team, please post under a different moniker and go to Crisper's. It sounds like the support the TOTV group has to offer would be good for you also.

Thank you, tkret and Peachie. I had second thoughts about posting those words but felt they needed to be said. If the poster is sincere, I offer my apologies. As it is, we have no way of knowing whether this person is "a saint or a sinner".

I guess I am way too trusting, thanks for opening my eyes to the negative possibilities.

[samhass]

Nonie, I hope you never change.

samhass,
Again, well done and you have NO reason for an apology. If the poster is sincere as you say, then he/she can accept this common sense advisory without hurt feelings of any kind. This is such a wonderful forum with all kinds of great information regarding a wonderful place. It should also be a forum that allows TV to remain a wonderful place and sometimes that includes postings such as yours.

Sam and all TOTVers,
I could never adequately express my feelings for all of you who show such compassion to others. I am so grateful to have found this group, you all make my heart happy. :bigthumbsup:
This is what life is all about. I will be in TV this weekend and stay through October, and want very much to help in any way that I can. Pease add me to the list. Oops, I forgot to say...I don't cook, but I am willing to purchase anything (that looks like it was homemade) ;D and give it to those in need. I am a great cleaner, and a good listener. I can also drive anyone anyplace they need to go.
You are truly special people.

MD Blondie

To all with concern, in know way did I place a post to get business. At this point in my life, that is the last on my mind. I advertise in other ways that are legitimate and paid for accordingly. I do understand the concern of some postings, but I am not one that should concern you. My husband always told me I was too trusting, but that is my nature. I won't appologize for that trait, I get that from my mother and have passed it
down to my children. Sometimes it is a great trait, and other times I wish I could be a little different. My geture to help was not about cleaning, it was about helping someone in need. Since I was faced with this recent tragedy, I look at life a little differently. I feel if I could help someone get through tough times in their life, by being there for converstation, errands, grocery shopping, doctor appointments, etc. If you are still unsure about who I am, what my intentions might be, please feel free to visit my site from The Star Banner in memory of my husband:

P.S. If someone tells me how to change my handle, I would be happy to do so. I did not just join this site today. My husband and I have been on this site for awhile, but but only posted once for my mom. I originally signed-up to learn about The Villages for my mother awhile back, but she decided to keep the home she has until the market comes back.

The poster IS sincere and a wonderful woman named Susan. She and her late hubby were my choice of excellent cleaning service. Susan IS a wonderful, caring, compassionate, hardworking woman. I admire her for her seeking to help others.

Susan need not trick one by slipping thru the side door for a free ride. Her ID here on TOTV is not the name of her company.

Sam, I understand your concern, however, this person is above and beyond ethical and caring. Her intentions here were not to pitch her business. She's in a state of mourning and is seeking out to help the needy.

Was so shocked to hear on her post of her hubby's passing. My heart is full of sadness for her loss.

Dear Yourcleaningteam-
You just got a fabulous reference. Barb is one of us and I trust what she tells me. I won't doubt your intentions at all after her post. I hope you understand my initial reticence. As it turns out, you are known to some of us and now have security clearance. Best wishes to you and thanks for your offer of help.

I agree with Nonie. When I read your post I was filled with admiration for the fact that you are wanting to reach out and help others at a time which must be so filled with sadness for you. You are a very kind person. My sympathy on the loss of your husband.

Bless your heart for wanting to help.

Its a wonderful idea Sam, and a great name Bright. I am not a Villager yet but will be one day so please count me in. This is just another reason that I can't wait to get to TV. And why it is such a fantastic place with the best people in the world.
