Hi, I’m currently feeling unwell and could really use some help with some home admin/chores this evening. I’m running a fever and feeling quite dizzy so I’m not up to my usual simple tasks. I need someone reliable and friendly to come over and meal prep some food for 1-2 days - something simple like pasta or soups would do - I also need help with walking my two year old dog Brady!! Should be a fairly simple and quick task I just feel really bad and can’t be asked!!
