The house is getting cleaned and I’m not lifting a finger

August 9, 2007 by Tricia

Wow!

Chris is actually helping with cleaning the house! He’s actually initiating it!

I hate having guests drop in when the house isn’t tidy. I think Chris has finally listened to me. He came home from work yesterday and started vacuuming. I refinished our teak table. Then today he came home from work and he got to work cleaning the upstairs bathroom!

Wow!

It’s funny because just yesterday I was thinking of hiring a cleaning service. I’ve toyed with the idea before but there was no way I could justify the expense when we lived in our tiny apartment. Now however with our house, and my health not being the greatest having someone come in to clean once every two weeks or so might be a good idea.

I mean, I think that’s why Chris kind of took over on the cleaning yesterday and today. He normally doesn’t do too much cleaning. He helps out, but he’s not the main cleaner. He knows I’ve been feeling really bad the last week + and how I feel about having guests in our home when it’s not up to par so I guess that spurred him on.

I’m not complaining! The house is cleaner and other than answering his questions as to what cleaners to use etc I haven’t had to do a thing! Hmmm maybe I should be “sick” more often?
