I've been threatening to hire outside help for my house for a long time. I think it's finally time!! I can't keep up with it during the week so that makes me a slave to the house on weekends.
Ok gals, I'm at an age where I refuse to be a slave to anything anymore and have taken the plunge and have someone that comes in once a month to clean my house. I never, ever thought I'd have cleaning help, but with 4 boys, a husband and not enough time in the day between their sports, husband's work and golf and me trying to bike - I was constantly angry on the weekends when cleaning the house. And worse of all, I took it out on everyone around me! Who wants to clean "dribbled" toilets when it's sunny out? NOT ME! Not to mention, I didn't make the mess in the first place!

I spot clean to keep up, but there's nothing and I mean nothing like the feeling of coming home to a clean house and not having to do it yourself!!!! And there's time for that bike ride......

But then ladies, I'm anal about keeping a clean house and wish I could be more "lax" about housekeeping, luckily my husband is the same way, so it wasn't a hard sell, especially when he saw how happy it made me - even more so when I was on my bike more!

Go for it girls - you deserve it!
