I'm going to get someone to clean my house for me! That's right....you heard me right! I would much rather pay for a maid than any of the above mentioned things.
Every week day, I leave the house at 8:00 am and return home from work at 5:00 pm. Then it's immediately onto cooking super, cleaning up after supper, getting kids in the bath, getting kids in the bed. By time I have a moment to breath...it's 9:30 pm and I'm whooped. This usually means that any laundry or cleaning that I have to do gets put on the back burner until the weekend. Well, the problem is that my weekends are just as busy.
So, ladies that is why I have bit the bullet and hired a house keeper. Granted she will only be coming once a month. But, boy oh boy, that once a month cleaning will for sure help this tired mama out! Tomorrow will be my official first day having a spic and span house....and I couldn't be more excited.
I would love to know what you do or spend your money on as a splurge?

Yeah for you! I would so love to have someone come in and clean my house. Who knows? Maybe I will one day - when the market turn! Enjoy your spic and span house and your splurge!
ReplyDeleteSounds fabulous! A far better investment than the hippest new shoes, anyway. :)

Oh how dreamy! You are so lucky Lacie!! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI am paying someone to do spring clean up in our yard. Trimming bushes, pulling weeds, laying new mulch, etc. I love working outside, but as with you and housework...I just don't have the time. Besides they do a much nicer job than I would. Then I get to spend the summer admiring what wonderful work I did (by hiring them). I will spend my outdoor quality time mowing 8 acres! So tell me...what exactly will they do?
ReplyDeleteYou'll love it! Wish we still had ours but gave her up when the gas prices reached $4/gal. I'm tempted to ask her to come back! :)
