call me for a plumber if you don't have one.
Maid Service. I actually resisted for a long time, since we live in an 1100 SF Condo and figured that we could / should be doing it ourselves. Then I gave in...what a great experience it has been. I shouldn't have waited so long. With all the hours people put into working, it is really nice to not have to spend 1/2 a Saturday cleaning. My wife also has us "clean up" for the cleaner. Confusing, I know.
But that is the amazing thing, they actually MOVE things when they clean. For instance, they actually move the lamp to dust, instead of dusting around it. Quite Amazing. With that said, I don't understand how dust can get UNDER a lamp anyway, but that is something you would have to take up with wifey.
Also, I hear that you can hire topless maids, and they come and clean your house topless. I kid you not, completely honest. I would search this for you, but I am at work, so not sure what would come up if I googled it. And yes, you watch them clean your house, topless, while you drink beer on the couch. Now imagine the better half walking in on that. "No honey, I got the maid for you, really..."
The maid service came today. They wore outfits that had tops. They moved things, dusted, mopped, vacuumed, scrubbed baseboards, swept, washed, changed linens, etc. I think we may become a repeat customer.
Our clean up for the cleaner was strictly centered on the office which had papers all over the floor (the floor we wanted them to clean). I certainly hope that "cleaning for the cleaner" is a one time gig.
