She Came, She Mopped, She Conquered

Within eight hours a team of Cleaning Lady, Welder Son, and Helper Lady transformed my house into a sparkling gem. Oh yeah. No exaggeration here. As I walked in the house inhaling the cleanliness, I keep looking in little nooks and crannies, thinking that she certainly didn't clean there. Clean. Surely not here. Clean. Surely not THERE. Clean. She didn't miss an inch. I just kept walking around from room to room in amazement. Being in the ocean splashing in the waves is the penultimate of relaxation to me, and I have now discovered that coming home from work to an immaculate house is a close second. Ah...therapy via Clorox.

I am with you on this!!! Nothing better than seeing a sparking bathroom and knowing I had no part in making it that way. This week we played in the yard and had so much fun while the house cleaners were there- pure bliss!

I'm jealous. So very jealous!

Of course, within 10 minutes of my cleaning lady leaving, one of my kid spills something on the kitchen floor. Let's hope you havebetter luck!

Oh, here at The Planet this is what we call a 'goodly' thing, and you are certainly a person most deserving of a goodly thing! Isn't it the best feeling? Sigh. I'm really glad you did something special for yourself, be it this or something else. Coolness.

You definitely said it. There are few things in the world better than coming home to a clean house.

Found you through AFRo. Have a great day!

That's it. I've been struggling with the decision to hire someone to "help" around the house. I think I'm going to make some calls today to have my carpets cleaned and someone else to do the rest of it too. I want my moment of clean bliss too!
