Cleaning Ladies

Recommended Posts

My fiancee and I don't exactly have a whole helluva lot of money. But, we also don't have much time, so our apartment can really get messy. We're keeping it up okay, but we could never have that "really clean and comfortable" look to it.

So, a ouple of months ago, she got a cleaning lady. Every other week for 40 bucks.

Let me tell you. I was dubious at first, but Maria kicks ass! I'm seriously looking forward to coming home tonight. The place will be clean and organized.

Even if you are on a shoestring budget, I'd recommend getting a professional housecleaner. The relaxation of a clean, tidy and organized place is as good as a massage, costs less, and lasts longer. Goodness, I love that lady!

Anybody else have them?

Yep, it's the best $90.00/month that I can spend. (Except for jumps, of course!!!)

tell me something...

Do you find yourself cleaning up for the cleaning lady?



Actually, yes. To a degree. For example, I hate folding laundry. So, I did all the laundry and it is waiting to be folded.

I also ran the full dishwasher yesterday so it can be unloaded and loaded with other dirties.

Things like that.

I had one when we lived in an apartment and we spent all our time at the dz, but since we have a house (kinda in the country) they are harder to come by.

Actually, if I could make the same money I do now, I would clean houses in a heart beat. I wouldn't want to be someone's "live-in maid" but I would gladly show up once a week to clean their house. I guess I'm really burned out in my current job.

I don't like other people in my house, touching my stuff.



Neither do I, but I resisted too long and I like cleaning the bathroom, vacuuming and anything else she does a lot less!

I have care-givers that also clean. The absolute BEST part about them is when I'm home playing with my babies, they do the stuff that I don't want to...like cooking dinner, and doing laundry, and vacuuming. Then I can play 'Low-bridge' with my twins (they like to drag me to the stairs, have me sit down, and crawl under my legs like trolls under a bridge :)) or do homework with my daughter. :)
And a clean house feels SO welcome! It's a happy feeling.

My house has gotten really dirty so I've decided to move. :)



That's what I usually do. Actually it's more like abandoning. I just leave all my stuff and buy new stuff and have it delivered, much easier that way ;)



When I first saw the title "Cleaning Ladies", I thought this was a "tips and tricks" thread. I was expecting to read how to buff them to a sparkling shine. Shaving tips, that sort of stuff. :ph34r:

Yep, I'm back. FoF is still current, but the denizens of alt.atheism don't get it, and the x-tians just whine about the new sig line with much more gusto.
