Thanks to R. for passing on: “Our hearts are with Powell student Alani Flores and her family after a devastating car accident last week. Her father and sister were also injured but have been released from the hospital. Here is a link to a fund to support the family if you would like to contribute. Thank you for sharing.

On July 7 , 2023 the Flores family had a day off so they decided to take the trip from Washington DC to Virginia to enjoy beautiful Lake Anna. The children enjoyed a day and were headed home. Unfortunately a tragic accident happened that has displaced this family. Three out of the five family members were hurt in the automobile accident. Father Carlos and daughter Kimberly have been released from the hospital, Kimberly will require therapy for her injuries. However Alani 7 years old sustained the worst injuries. She has suffered a brain injury and has been on a ventilator since the accident and had craniotomy surgery on 7/9/23. We are asking to assist with medical bills and the household bills as both of the parents are at their daughters bedside and unable to work. If you are unable to give please share and say a prayer for their little girl.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
