So, remember when I was lamenting the organization, cleanliness, and order of my life, specifically my home? How I looked into getting a personal organizer, a cleaning lady, a Feng Shui expert? (OK, so I didn't actually look into Feng Shui, but I would have if you had told me it would make my messy life non-messy.)
Well, I got a cleaning lady. And I love her. No, really. I LOVE her. That four-letter word barely even begins to describe my feelings for my cleaning lady.
She comes once a week, and in the first month, suddenly our home was sparkling, organized and clean. I could see my kitchen counters again. Clothes were in drawers and not folded in piles all over the room, anymore. I could open the doors to my dining room and know that cat fur wouldn't accumulate to irreversible depths on the chairs and rug. And all this came at a time when I needed it most. I can't even think of the disaster that would inevitably have been my house right now had our lovely N not been coming once per week.
There is nothing quite like walking through your front door after a long, hard work week to an immaculate home. NOTHING. Not even a good poop. I tell you, it is bliss.
Why I never did this before, I shall never know. Silly, stupid TCIE! But now I have seen the error of my ways, and my cleaning lady is here to stay.

I so miss my cleaning lady! When we moved last summer I had to give her up because our rent went up so much. It was either a bigger house with a way better yard for my pups or keep my cleaning lady. Some days I really do think I've lost my mind....
I've been thinking about hiring one, now I am going to have to check it out.
Yeah, of all people who need some stuff taken off their plates - you're pretty high on the list. Glad that's making your life better!
I have been thinking about getting one. My house is a mess and I don't have time to clean. I think we will look into that
Need to get mine back. I will sell stuff to get her back! UGH!
Awesome. Good for you. Sometimes you just need to take care of yourself.
What a difference a clean house can make to your state of mind. Glad you are enjoying your cleaning lady!
Now, if I could only get mine back!
Good for you. I've never had one, but have been thinking of how nice it would be. My cousin who lives 4 hours away has a cleaning business, and I keep wanting her to move here to I can hire her.
That's awesome! Good for you for getting one!!!
Yay! So glad that you finally got one!
I soooooo want a cleaning lady. I am starting to think it's a necessity, not a luxury. Heck, my Dh's family (from Colombia) *always* had a staff at home. Wives never did it all. Ever!! What's wrong with us American women?
Wow, you must really love her. I know how you feel about a good poop.
*THANK* you!!!!!!
