Monday afternoons.
I have a cleaner. I have had her for the length of time I have been at uni. She is utterly marvelous and I would do alot to keep her. She cleans, irons and generaly sorts my messy house out.
Monday afternoons are really lovely. She comes during the day on monday and sometimes I see her, and sometimes not.
Then when I come back from uni, you can smell what she has done before you see it. It is just fantastic. My house looks like it should, not like it usually does, and order is restored.
I can justify having her in any number of ways, I can afford to pay for her (and sometimes even if I couldnt , I still think I would keep her!!) I am a busy mother/friend/student, who wants to sit with wine, not race about with the iron when I have any time that is not already allocated to something else, but most of all, I like it.
I hate ironing. Really hate it, and am really bad at it, the general cleaning is ok....no-one really likes it (unless your one of my friends that wont be mentioned by name...but she really really likes cleaning....very odd!) but it has to be done. My cleaner does the bits no-one likes doing, the cobwebs, the kitchen floor, the skirting boards etc....
Obviously I am not going to offer her a payrise, but if she demanded it, I would very easily give in, but being a kind and generous soul, I am sure she will never put me in that position.
....lets hope she doesnt read this, and use it against me!!!!

my flat is a mess... and am attempting the big clean up tonight. My mother is like Monica from friends and is obsessive about cleaning..we even call her by that name now. (she hates it!)
I wish i could afford a cleaner, would be heaven!
You have the best cleaner in the world..... and you should pay her double cos shes worth it! ha ha xxx
yes I prolly should pay her double, but as the last sentance says.....she is such a good loyal and lovely person she would never ask for a pay rise!!!!
(shut up laa laa!!! lol xx)
