My "wet joy" post was about cleanliness and happens several times a week but today's clean joy happens just once a fortnight and hadn't happened for a whole month before today.
It's the visit of Annie-the-home-enhancer. I can't do all my own cleaning now (disability) and Annie's visits are very welcome. They are eagerly anticipated for several days. They prompt me to do some much-needed tidying up. I don't clean before my cleaner comes but tidying is a different matter. If Annie has to tidy my stuff I have to find where she's put it and I untidy the place in searching so it's self preservation!
Then Annie comes and dusts and polishes, sweeps and mops and generally makes the wonderful. Employing her takes a little financial juggling but it's well worth it.
And the aftermath is fantastic! Every second Thursday I can relax better, I can find things and do things. My home is just so delightful. There are many things I can't do for myself now (I wish I could) and I am just so grateful for Annie.
And I know that I haven't got to rush around tidying up for another thirteen days.
How delightful to have a cleaner come on that schedule. Not too far apart for her visits and not too often either.
ReplyDeleteHurrah!
ReplyDeleteI would be doing the same thing if I had a cleaner. Enjoy your tidy and wonderful home.
