  • Morning. 


    So the bestest news of yesterday was I finally have a housekeeper again.  She will be coming 2-3 hours a week to do the heavy cleaning.


    Loud cheers!


    On Sunday I heard a lady whom I've known since I was 13 say she baby sits her grandkids while her daughter cleans her brothers house.   My ears perked up a bit 'cause I've been looking ever since we fired the "nanny".   But then the conversation changed and I completely forgot.


    So yesterday Cindy called me and was really hesitant.  "I was talking yesterday and noticed your eyes perk up when I said house cleaning, and my daughter is looking for work, and I told her I'd call you and if you were intrested...."  she didn't even get to finish the sentence *giggles*  I used to babysit her daughter.  *giggles*  And teach her in SS.  But now she's the new mommy of 2.  And has made some hard choices in her young life. 


    The second I got off the phone with Cindy I was calling her daughter.  And today my house will get cleaned. *YEAH*  Cindy babysits the babies, and her daughter cleans.  It gives Heather a bit of spending money for herself...and *YEAH*


    Happy dances all over the place.


    So cold number 572 has hit our house.   It has hit Sam and Kaylin the hardest.  Rainee is *starting* to act like she's getting it today.  And yeup its a respitory cold.  *sigh*  Kaylin scared me yesterday...I kept looking at her saying you sound like Rainee.    But she's much better today.  Here's hoping all of Rainee's steroids keep her safe.   I mean after all its been a whole 2.5 months since her last pneumonia.  (sarcasm rolls through)


    So, now I just have to figure out what we're going to do while the house gets cleaned.    Parks in January are just ewww.  And I'm really not into McD's playland.  Keep contemplating whose house to crash with five kids....*snicker*


    Maybe I'll go to Walmart instead.  Time will tell.....My house is gonna be CLEAN!!!!

  • I hope that cold is short-lived!  And that is suh good news for you and Cindy's daugher! :goodjob: :heartbeat:

  • :sunny: Yay for HELP! Hope this works out well for you all.

  • Aw, neat.  There is nothing so great as getting help you need and knowing you're helping someone else at the same time.

  • Heather is absolutely fabulous :) What a bonus for her! She gets to work and have free babysitting. You both win. Wahoo!

  • So glad you found someone to clean.  And, she has kids so she knows what they are really like.  Not hypothetical perfect children.  Praying that the crud misses Rainee and leaves the house fast.

  • :goodjob:

  • WAnna know what's fun to do with the kids? Take them to a mall on Friday night - yup, all five of them, and let them loose on the unsuspecting shoppers. My personal favorite is when they run up and down and up and down between the middle section to JCpennys and break up the huge gangs of gothic dressed teens. And YAY on the housekeeper!!!
