Just how dirty was my house? Today, I splurged and paid to have my house cleaned. I have to say, that was the best $140 I have ever spent. Three ladies showed up at 1:30 and left at 7:15. They did not leave one speck of dirt or dust behind. You would not believe what they did. I have a four bedroom, three and a half bath house that includes a big room upstairs that is my sewing room. I kind of piled things up in the sewing room so that it would look semi-organized. They dusted everything, picked it up and put it right back down in the same place. Throughout the whole house they cleaned base boards, fans, light fixtures, blinds, inside windows, mirrors, lamps - you name it, they cleaned it. They dusted every leaf on my silk plants. I am overwhelmed in the job they did. Really, my house wasn't a pig pen but they found dirt that I didn't even know exisited. My house has never been this clean. I will certainly call them back - probably quarterly. Can you tell that I am exited?

I love love having professional cleaners do that! I may do my house also in august. We have 4 bedroom, 3 bath house with a bonus room. Half of the rooms arent being used. Oh the dust!
|
Two bedrooms and one bath aren't being used in our house, either. But, I can't seem to keep the dust out.....
|
I am excited for you ! How enjoyable it must be to have a sparkling house and you are not worn out :wink: :thumbup:
|
great, that is awesome!
|
I've got so much 'stuff' everywhere I'd have to clean before I'd let the cleaners in my house!
|
Oh what a nice pleasure...enjoy! My motto is a clean house makes time for creative ideas.
|
What a nice treat for you :D:D:D
|
Oh that's great!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds like money well spent. I'd do it in a heartbeat!! In fact I might pretty soon :D
I cleaned my entire house before the holidays last year and I must have spent almost a month, no kidding. If I didn't have my ipod loaded with audiobooks I would have gone nuts. But ask me if I feel like doing it again??? lol My kids all came home and weren't sure if they were in the right house!! They loved it though, said it was so relaxing not to have stuff all over and things were really shiny :D So happy for ya!!! :D |

I love to have that done but not sure I would trust anyone I didn't know.
|
That sounds like a great deal.
|
Aw, youre so LUCKY! Mine just keeps getting messier!!!!!!
|
That's great.
I do have a housekeeper, they come every other Tuesday and do my floors and 3 bathrooms and dust and straighten up. they will even fold my laundry if the find it. We had "her" (she's in our small group Bible study" start coming last September when I was having shoulder issues. She was here to take care of the house for both my shoulder and then knee surgery. We still have her coming and probably will unless I have to quit working. Though I would only quit working real soon if I go on disability, so If I receive Disability, I will still have her come and clean. I love it!!! She's a friend and needs the job badly and I totally trust her!!!! |

That is a bargain! I was listing my house and decided that after I decluttered and moved out excess furniture I would hire a housecleaner too. I paid $75.00 and got only one girl. She was here for four hours and I had to follow her around. This mirror is all streaky - this floor needs to be mopped. Can you sweep this again and get that big clump of crud out of the corner... I'm glad it went good for you. We're relocating to the Houston area from New Orleans - maybe you have better cleaners in Texas - I hope so.

The saying goes,if you have a place for everything, your house will always be in order and this is what I have going for me. If I don't have a place for it, it doesn't come it lol. In fact nothing has come into this house for ages as we have all we need. I dont' believe in storing, if it's stored, you don't need it?
|
How nice! At least now your starting with a clean slate, that you didn't have to sweat to get! Now relax! lol
|
What would it be like to have unused space?
That would be so nice to have - - - |
