Jannie - Do you have a case worker? Sometimes they come in handy in situations like this. If your T is through a county agency or something like that, you might ask him about that. A case worker can sometimes help run interferance with landlord issues. They can also help you set up a schedule for cleaning, like what oughta be done daily, weekly, etc. so there isn't a big rush to clean before your dad comes over. That way it will get to be a habit for you, rather than a big stressor. Anyhoooo....maybe think about a case worker. They can come in handy. emmy
