We've got some stuff which may or may not be wanted. Cook books, metal mess-hall type trays (4), maybe some towels and stuff. We have lots of crap. I'll look through our giveaway pile if you'd like.

I'd love that; thank you. Would be happy to drive over and pick up what you can spare, sometime this week or next (after I get my car back from the shop or figure out other transportation).

Okay here's what I've got so far: the trays, a few cookbooks (Betty Crocker and How to Cook Everything), knife set missing 1 knife, toothbrush holder, 6 tupperware type containers.

How esoteric do you want? I have things like random Green Day hats and stuff from work. Are there kids involved? We have toys. And books.

I'm home in the evenings most of the time. Monday and Tuesday for sure this week and next. Thursdays I am out.

No kids, but my cousin is a big Green Day fan. :-)

I will try to meet up with you next Monday or Tuesday evening.

Really sorry to hear about your aunt and cousin. I hope they get back on their feet soon, and it's nice to see that they have family like you looking out for them.

Yeah, at least they've got peeps who can afford to help, which is much better than many people in the world who find themselves suddenly without homes!

I'll try to send you some stuff this week. Is it okay if I send it to the zivity office?

I'm sorry to hear about your family.

specifically, you need toiletries and household items? do you need clothes and stuff too?

I am going to try to find them some shoes (9 and 8.5), but I think they will have to buy their own clothes. They are like 2X and 18, which is hard to find among the people I know. Anything household-y would be very welcome.
