A Member Shares Her Experience

Posted by midmetimebank on March 6, 2012 at 5:10 PM

MMTB member Debbie L and her husband recently teamed up to replace a portion of a kitchen ceiling for another MMTB member (see photo). She plans to spend the hours she earned on a lesson in stained glass art. Also, she is giving Spanish lessons to another member and her two children, and then hopes to take some lessons in Chinese with the hours she earns. Debbie says after doing a few exchanges that she is finding joy in meeting her neighbors and satisfaction in helping and being helped by them!

I love the idea that you and your husband worked on this together. A great way to make new friends and have some fun while helping other. I can see that replacing the drywall was quite a job, I am sure the members whose ceiling was repaired are very happy as they not only saved quite a bit of cash they made some new friends in the transaction! What a Bargain!
