Today was a good day!

This morning I got up early and made John get up early too. He complained and grumbled the entire time. I didn't let him get me down though, today was a good day. Today we were getting a house keeper again and she was coming to do a deep clean of the entire house. She would be here at 8:30 (I picked the time) and I couldn't be happier. I was packing a lunch for the kids and planning an outing so she would have plenty of uninterrupted time to clean our house.
We managed 3 months without a housekeeper before John said we should bring one back. At first I was offended, then totally lost all motivation to keep my house clean so I decided to start looking for a house cleaner. This time I wanted an individual vs. a cleaning service so I could have the same person each time and set a time for them to come vs. them give me a window of 8 - 5. I finally found someone I liked but she was a bit more than expected. John worked our budget over and found a way for us to work her in (thanks!!!).
Two girls cleaned our house for 5 hours today!!! It looks great and I couldn't be happier. She's really sweet and is a stickler for satisfaction. If you want something done a certain way, she'll do it. Each house is different and each customer likes things done a little differently. She gets that. This is just her first cleaning so we'll see how things go each week, but I'm really happy and holding high expectations.
Thanks honey for making this happen!!!!
