Marie,
Please call the local VA. They may have a contractor willing to do work for the spouses of the deployed.
Michelle Obama and Dr. Biden are creating a program of volunteers to help spouses and families of the deployed, so if your local VA got a heads up on that, then they just might be aware of someone willing to take care of that problem for you.
Good luck, and thanks so much for your husband's service and the sacrifices you make.
Diane
